    whites should offer a class

    People have asked for seminars on the rest of their line for more than 15 years to no avail . . . . the classes they offer are for their gold detectors which cost more than a couple of V3i's combined :stars: The problem is that the in-house expertise at Minelab is very much focused on that end...

    R & B Li-ion Batteries

    If you look at the VX3 and other models such as the MXT that do not comes with a rechargeable system and you look at teh cost of the factory system: Heavy Duty NiMH Rechargeable Battery ($80) NiMH Charger ($25) NiMH Charger Stand ($50) You are looking at $155 for a NiMH system rather than the...

    R & B Li-ion Batteries

    Larry, If you price batteries at the local drug store or convenience store which is where one usually winds up buying them in the field if you need them or even Wal-Mart, you don't find them priced at $9 for 50. Congratulations if you were able to find them at that price, hope you stocked up...

    Any VX3 Reviews

    As Rob says, it is a V3i that has been simplified in terms of what options are available and is intended to offer V3i performance in most applications without the options that some found intimidating . . . . . coils are interchangeable, wireless headphones are an option and the color screen and...

    So what's "under the hood" of a Minelab detector :blink:

    Over the years, a common thread or question raised on virtually any brand-specific forum has been "what's under the hood" of a particular detector. Users engage each other on debates as to how a particular search coil design works, how a particular detector circuit works or what the next step...

    An application that takes the Exchange Program to the next level

    In case anyone is interested in trying an application that builds on what the Minelab program was not able to build into when it was released, here is a site you may want to check out and experiment with . . . . . . it has some promise to make the computer connectivity a useful feature for the...

    Working on a new Quattro / Safari book & looking for find photos

    In response to a pile of requests for an updated book covering both the Quattro and Safari, I am trying to finish that project up and one thing I was looking to add were more photos and details of some of the great finds that have been made with these two machines. If anyone has some finds they...

    Spectra V3i comparison to F75 and E-Trac first post

    All of the units you mentioned are solid performers and will serve you well with the requisite time in to learn what it is telling you. There are a lot of adjustments on the V3/V3i but to be honest, once you have the settings dialed in for your area and particular types of targets, it can be an...

    MY FIRST RELIC,,,,,,kinda

    Last summer I hunted North Myrtle Beach and found a pouch full of WWII 50 caliber bullets and casings with 1943 and 1944 dates on them. It appears that during the war, fighter pilots practiced strafing runs off the beach before being shipped overseas. When they dredged the sand to replenish...

    You need to spend more to find more right . . . (Just don't let the Omega know about that rule:biggrin:)

    Of course every knows that if you want to find more in the field you need to spend more for your equipment right? After all, how could a detector that lists for $599 possibly compete with a detector costing $100's more? Heck if it feels like a toy in terms of its weight how can it possibly be...
