[QUOTE="A-team, post: 596953, member: 18790"] I've got the Z-search on now; huge difference in weight felt plus I am looking at a 3030 battery for half the weight and have a spare in the car. It was funny that the pick felt significantly heavier after reducing the coil weight on the 7000. Am going to look into it during this week for some options. I do like the longer handle and wider scraping edges. The extension and leverage makes things a lot easier, unfortunately the bigger you go the heavier. I'm curious as to how light I can go with standard steel, was even thinking of a few lightening hole drilled through the scraper side. I do have a gasless mig set-up that Im pretty handy with.... Feral - can you show us some measurements on the pick head? [/QUOTE]
