    Detector prospector forums are closed.

    Tom's new forum is still there but the majority of posts are from one person--not Tom. They said Tom lost his connection to the forum but is working to get it back and will post again when he does. It is surely not like it was a few years ago. I don't go there anymore.

    I Switched To Lithium Ion 9 Volt Batteries For A Good Reason

    My first ones were Maximal Power that are over 10 years old and stilll going strong. Like JCR says though, they quit without warning.

    wireless bluetooth receiver aptxLL rated

    Just get a aptx-ll transmitter and then you can use Legend or Equinox 800 headphones along with various other aptx-ll headphones and earbuds.
