[TABAGO]

well thanks for the info, i knew that about the bulbs being installed the wrong way, learned that the hard way
back in the summer fixing solsr yard lightsput them i backwards the first time lol
the bh takes a 9volt battery, should i look for a 9 volt blub????????,
I orderd a cheaper pin pointer from Harbor Freight Soon as it comes in i will operate on the B T that way if I screw it up
I will have a back up

I have both and like the Harbor Freight because of the light, on/off switch and what I feel is better sensitivity. I didn't realize what I was missing until I got a probe. I would be digging around trying to locate my find, when I could be spending more time looking for finds. A probe sure makes a difference, especially when the coins are corroded and match the color of the soil. Here is what the Harbor Freight looks like

Thanks for the info Rivermarine,about the Harbor Freight metal detector. They have those for sale in the catalog for 16.00 dollars and that is cheap enough. Thanks again take care Jim
