New Nokta PI
- Thread starter Smigo
- Start date
It is supposed to be water proof to at least wading depth. Other than that, I haven't heard much. Apparently it is taking a little longer to release than originally expected. I hope the time is being spent to get it right and not deliver something that will need a lot of updating to get it right. It appears their target competition is the AlgoForce E-1500, which is not water proof. Nokta has a better distribution network set up than AlgoForce does.

Hi yes you are correct. But the whole thing with the Algo was affordable for everyone. Now after saying that it isn't a crazy price machine like Minelab and Garrett PIs. Its down with second hand Minelab 4500's and 5000's. On most gold here, iv owned them all, a 4500 will kick it on 75% of the small gold and 90% of the large.
The 5000 will kick it on 90% of the small gold and 100% of the large.
Just a heads up from 35 yrs here chasing it here.
The Algo is very capable of the small very much so under 1 gram. And light.
But after using it at the cost of adding a good coil, headphones, and power bank its up near $3000 Aussie.
You can buy a second hand 5000 in fantastic condition with a few coils for the same that will overall anhilate it in our goldfields. If you are happy to go out and find sub grams, mostly sub .3 grams as fun then yep its great.
Cheers.
