I'm Formally A Garrett User For 25 Years..The Problem With Garrett, As I See It, Is They Basically Don't Have Parts To Fix Machines
Or Flat Out REFUSE To Repair Older Machines!
I FINALLY "Bit" The Bullet And Bought My 1st Tesoro..AND..It's The Lobo Super Trac..The Main Reason I Chose To Go With
Tesoro? The NAME Means Treasure! (Ha,Ha) No, The Main Reason I Chose Tesoro Is The "Reputation" They Have For
Standing Behind Their Equiptment..Makes No Difference If The Machine Is New Or Ancient History, They Will Repair It!!
The Only Company That I Know Of That Offers The "LIFETIME" Warranty!!
I Like To Hunt Gold Nuggets, Coins, Relics, Jewelery..I Like Water Hunting And Land Hunting..This Lobo Will Do It All..
I Have Both Coils, The Extra Lower Stem That Makes Changing Coils A Snap!
I Have Had The Machine For Several Months, I Have Found A Bunch Of Modern Coins 1 Ladies White/Yellow Gold Wedding
Band W/9 Diamonds In The Face..It's 14K And Appraised $350-$400.. It's Inscribed On The Inside The Same As My Birth Date..
Wonder What The Odds Of That Are? Also Have One Piece Of Silver, It's A 1/2 Dime, Dated 1856, My 1st 1/2 Dime In 25 Years
Of Hunting! Yes, It's About Worn Out..BUT..Looks Good In My Collection. Hope To Send Pics Later..I Need A Better Camera!
Here's A Point To Remember.....Do NOT Drop Your Lobo Or ANY Machine In The WATER!!!!! You Will Be OUT Of Business Fast!
I Made This MISTAKE And Feared The Worst! Called Tesoro, Talked To Vince, He Told Me To Remove Batteries, Take 2 Screws
Out That Hold Belt Clip, Slide Circuit Board Out Of Machine And "Rinse" Board With DISTILLED Water..How Simple Is That?
Let It Dry Out For A Day Or Two..I Went A Step Futher And Sprayed The Board With CRC QD Electronic Cleaner Part # 05103
Sprayed The Board, Battery Compartment, Cable End And Control Box End!! Working Like A Champ Once Again!
So, How Do I Like The Lobo Super Trac? You Can Spend A Hell-Of-A-Lot More Money But You'll NOT Get A Better Machine!!
Best Of Th'ing
