    The New APEX Passed The Freezing Cold Test

    Went to a toboggan hill, and detected for two hours. In the past, using rechargeable NiMH batteries required me to attach a hot pack on the electronics to prevent the batteries from discharging from the cold. Not so with the APEX. I started with 4/4 bars battery indicator, and after 2 hours in...

    Well, Here They Are.................... New Garrett APEX Coils

    That smaller 5" x 8" coil would sure come in handy right now. It slices through dry powder snow like a knife through butter, allowing me to still detect in 8" of snow, in the woods.

    Out Shooting Birds With The APEX And Got Several Good Shots!

    First Signal "BAM!" Out Came A Silver Ring Using The APEX!

    Out after work for a quick hunt, as the time change doesn't give me too much light anymore. Temperatures are still above freezing, so a few more park hunts are still on the menu. This bumps up my totals to 24, 8 with the APEX. The APEX is turning into a ring vacuum.

    Trouble with my apex

    Have you reset the unit? Turn the unit on. Wait a few seconds, then hold the on/off button for several seconds until it beeps. That quite often fixes the unit. Every time you switch coils, you should do a reset. You didn't mention in your post where you turned it on. If in the house or backyard...

    Out Doing A Water Hunt In The Freezing Cold North Saskatchewan River

    I was using my relic shovel to dig up the coins. Deepest was about 6 inches. It's fun digging in a river for targets. The water washes away the sand and smaller stones in seconds, leaving the target in sight. And.....I was walking real slow and careful.
