I know i'm going backwards here but hoping simplicity will lead me back to finding some silver again never had one of these so just currious to or what could i expect from it i've had the 1236x2 and 70 but hoping the 1225x will be close to the 1236x2
 
Had a 1225 years ago and it was a great cellar hole machine. Found a lot of silver with it. A better detector than those who never tried one gave it credit for. My detecting buddy keeps an old 1212 one knobber as a backup.The only problem I can remember with the 1225 was geting the batteries out. Not in the 1270 class by any means but no slouch either. Have fun with it.
 
Hey javelin. I did notice the battery issue as well. I cured that by taking the duracells out and putting energizers in. I did send a couple energizers with it. Hope you enjoy it.
 
hey thank you yes i've always used industial energizers in my equipment i really think you'l like the edge, oh just so you know jmgifts that edge won't power up unless the coil is plugged in or otherwise it will for a second then go out never seen one do that before!
 
That 1225 was my first detector, it really loves silver! I found most of my fish scales with it.They are Canadian silver 5 cent pieces from around the turn of the century.
They were very small and easy to loose.
It's a very stable no nonsense machine, you'll love it. I use a 1266-XB now for park silver.
