Make sure you swing slowly in pinpoint mode, although most prospectors do, and obviously pinpoint goes out of whack every once in a while but easy to fix with a single button press. You can detect in pinpoint mode though, pretty interesting thing to experiment with and can be beneficial in some...

Correct, when the detectors average power usage is 700 mA then a 10000 is more than ample to last a full day. For those using headphones or a Bluetooth transmitter and low backlight, they will get an even longer runtime. Even at maximum load of 1 amp it will last 10 hours off a genuine 10000...

Velcro tape, one on the battery bank, one on the detector, battery bank secure, even if you don't do the straps up right. I found the key to doing the straps up tight was their position, I have a rounded edge power bank so mine was prone to sliding out a bit over the lip, repositioning the...

I look forward to seeing Detech's coils, they have the freedom to do whatever they like with Axiom coils, not build coils to the size, specification and winding type the detector manufacturer instructs them that they can build with their approval and a VERY limited basic range so things are...

So you think because a coil doesn't have a chip preventing aftermarket manufacturers making coils that the detector is "simple" ? The GPZ has 5 wires when you exclude the security chip, 2 of which are shield wires and it's got a far more complex coil design than a mono coil, how many wires do...

Detech are going to make a full range of coils for the Axiom too which will give it a bit of a boost. Spirals, DD, Concentric, Anti Interference the lot in both closed and open coil designs. They intend to make them deeper, more sensitive and light weight. This is a big advantage the Axiom...

Roger that, I'm in New Zealand and Nenad is the only Aussie dealer I deal with, bought a fair few things from him now, always quick and easy to deal with, and excellent communication.

This guy is genuine, he's made many patch leads for people.

Thanks that's exactly the information I was after, so maybe the GM 1000 isn't really 4 star and the GPX 6000 5 star on tiny gold for overall performance, they're taking into account variables that don't matter for everyone like high mineralisation.

I would imagine the GPX 6000 wouldn't even be compatible with the GPX coils even if they were to plug in with no chip security, it's a very different animal when it comes to small gold performance, the coils would obviously need to be made differently for this. While it's a shame for us GPX...

No, older GPX coils will not work on it, completely different cable type with far more pins connecting the coil, it appears to also have a chip protection system to stop aftermarket coils which also eliminates the use of older GPX coils. Perhaps one day in a few years time Minelab may let an...

I'd like to see a video of the response of that bit of gold or a similar size one over the coil in the scoop, like it's being recovered. I'd be pretty impressed if it hits that as well as described.

Contacted you by PM

Is the 19" Coil still available?

They're a bit over-rated by the sounds of it, the big selling point was the discrimination yet nobody uses it. So it ends up being a shallow water proof PI with reasonably good depth. I know a guy that bought one, he's a beach hunter, he didn't like it and has got rid of it. Quite a few have...

Yup, New Zealand, I don't have the Kiwi accent as I moved from Australia.

My mate and I have been hitting this patch for about a week or so now, I've got about 15-16 grams off it and I have no idea how many pieces it was, probably 70 or so and he's got 8.26 grams over 78 pieces, he hasn't done as many days and he's stayed off the top part of the patch mostly letting...

Yup, no doubt about it your pouch is better Nenad :) A good price too. I'd buy your one over the Chinese version.

The way I use the SP01 on my GPX is GPX plugged into the Quest Wirefree Mate Transmitter, then the receiver plugs into the SP01 then the SP01 into my headphones or external speakers and this works perfectly, I find it best to have the SP01 at the end with the speaker/headphones. By the way, I...

For those that haven't been able to find a Pouch for their SP01 seeing they always seem to be out of stock these days you can import a suitable size one from China. It seems decent quality and all you have to do is put some holes in it for the plugs, or as I've done use a right angle plug for...
