    Help Identifying

    Congrats on a cool find! I dug this one up several years ago.

    The MXT was dialed in.

    It sure is easy to pinpoint with. I know that DD coils get the nod,,, but I really do enjoy the concentrics.

    The MXT was dialed in.

    How do I love the little 5.3 eclipse coil on an MXT,,,,,, let me count the ways. Was out detecting Sunday, going slow with the little coil. Got a solid repeatable high tone and dug a beautiful one piece plug. The plug was six inches deep and stayed together perfectly when I lifted it out of the...

    Lithium batteries

    I'm gonna add this, just in case someone in the future is looking into these. I bought these on Amazon for $36 with charger and shipping, as I knew I could return them if there was an issue. In going over the reviews, a common complaint was that the charger did not fully charge to the point of...

    Lithium batteries

    They arrived this afternoon. Was pleased that all eight arrived at least partially charged and testing at 1.5 volts. So far, so good. Now they are charging to reach full charge. Can't speak to longevity yet, but super optimistic at this point. I haven't checked the 9v's yet.
