    Petrified wood cut and semi polished

    Look up petrified wood arrowheads. Some of them are gorgeous too. Lamar, Colorado has a building made of petrified wood from nearby areas.

    Xp Deus Charge clips

    I have a doodad clip without the readout and it works wonderfully. However, I don't think they are made anymore. Then again, my original one is still working fine. My elliptical HF coil is still on its original battery too. I had trouble charging it at one time but when I deleted it and...

    rechargeable batterys for z link garrett pointer

    My experience with rechargeable 9V lithium ion batteries is different from the above post. I use them in my Tesoro's and Fishers and Teknetics along with my Garrett Carot and Whites TRX pinpointers. They hold their charge just fine.

    (Want to sell) FS....Minelab Manticore Accessories.

    $123,456.00 might be a bit excessive. LOL

    Anyone have any feed back on the Fisher F-5?Thank you.

    Turn the detector on. Turn the disc knob to the off position, turn the threshold knob until you can hear a faint tone, find a piece of ground with no metal in it and bob the coil up and down until the threshold neither gets louder or quieter. If it gets louder on the down stroke, turn the GB...

    One more Question about rechargeable batterys

    The newer low self discharge ones work fine. I don't think they should be more expensive than Eneloops, Tenergys or EBLs though.

    Got the legend..now some questions

    In what part of Colorado do you live? If you are close enough, I have different coils you can try. If you are running max sensitivity, that is probably the problem. There is no where that I have detected in Colorado that allows that much sensitivity. It appears jmac can run higher...

    Help in finding Minelab metal detector

    Maybe if you buy alkaline ones. I bought some Eneloop batteries 4 for $12 about 10 years ago that I still use. They recharge for less than 1 cent for the electricity. If you find one for the Nox today for $20, let me know. All I see are $29-35+ and I am not sure how long they will be...

    Anyone have any feed back on the Fisher F-5?Thank you.

    No, the F2 was the inexpensive one and it was still pretty effective. The F5 is way more advanced. And you don't have to worry about membrane switches wearing out.

    % of accuracy of the x-y screen?

    It seems to me to tell you what you already know. A good tone and small variance in VID will give a relatively straight line in the correct quadrants. A not so good tone will scribble all over the place with no hint as to being a good or bad target. Listening works much better than watching...

    Help in finding Minelab metal detector

    In my opinion, most people here will sell their internal battery detectors before the warranty runs out. If not, they will pay $40 or more to install or have someone else install a new battery. I won't pay that much to recharge my AAs on my dozen or so detectors in a hundred years. Will the...

    dfx and vx3 finding gold jewerly

    DC phase is simply very slow variable retune threshold based all metal, almost like pinpoint mode on some detectors like the T2 or F75 or more like the static all metal on the F75. It can be used at the same time as the disc mode and gives a good indication of target size by the length of the...

    Tesoro 7" Wide Scan - any advantage?

    I have all three DD 5 pin coils and prefer the two larger ones. If I could only have one, it would be the largest but the 5 ⅜ inch concentric is by far my favorite and 8" round, second. For extreme nail infested areas the 4 inch can be quite valuable too. Good luck finding what you want. IMO...
