Question for the cold weather(northeners, John Edmonton) guys,

I took the PRO out this morning, Temp was in the mid 20's, for about the first hour the VDI jumped all over, ground depth kept reading MAX, and it was a bit noisey. I've huinted this area for years with never a problem. Seemed like when it got a little warmer the PRO worked fine like it should. Just curious if the cold might have had somethiong to do with the way it was working at first. With all thast was going on with it, it still would beep over targets. I just had to listen real good.
 
Mine seemed to work OK in cold temps. I often attached one of those hot pacs to it to keep it warm. Is it possible that there might be some EMI from underground or obove the ground wires nearby?
 
No, I have hunted this area for years and with the PRO & Gold before and never a problem. I saw where you put the heat pads on. I might have to try it.
Thanks John for the info. We'll see what happens next weekend!!
 
Heh Joe:

I doubt if the circuitry would be effected much in our Maryland weather of late but low voltage would cause problems. If your batteries are not fully charged starting out, the temperature will definitely effect their output. Think about a flashlight that is left in a cold car - not very bright is it?
