    Minelab Manticore

    Are they a sponsor?

    He must be lying I guess?

    He's lying? I don't think so. He just destroyed a perfectly good detector? I don't think so.

    Has your Manticore been shipped?

    This is disappointing.

    Does the Nox leak from modifications

    No comment on your post. I stand by what I said in another post below. I will not elaborate on this at all but: The problems with the 600 and 800 are real. Why do you think think they made some many changes on the 700, 900, and Manticore? Making a waterproof detector that was actually...

    The technology is topshelf no doubt.

    Does the Nox leak from modifications

    IMO, if we were talking about a NM product, we wouldn't be having this conversation. The issues would have been resolved.

    Does the Nox leak from modifications

    I don't mean to offend park hunters, I wish I had a nice old park to hunt. But unless you only hunt parks or you just detect occasionally, I'd say the chances of using an Equinox for 3 years without a build quality failure is slim. I don't know of a YouTuber I watch that hasn't had a failure...

    Does the Nox leak from modifications

    I have heard that argument. But everyone has seen the video showing it leaking around small cracks close to the charging port. There are probably other places it leaked. If it did leak because of changing the shaft, why was the shaft changed? Because of poor build quality. Bottom line is that...

    New version NOX / Old version NOX

    I agree with you. They have probably had thousands of warranty claims to learn from.

    Excited about new Equinox

    I didn't word my last post correctly. I should have said: I'm starting to see post on other forums where others are suggesting that Minelab should offer some type of compensation to 600 and 800 owners. Some of the language is kind of strong. An avid user of the Equinox 600 or 800 that hasn't...

    New version NOX / Old version NOX

    The only thing I can think of is that they are referring to the New 700 and 900. There never was an improved 600 or 800 as far as I know.

    NOX LEAKING

    This could be a very true statement but not a very accurate answer to the question about the equinox leaking, "less than .01% of all old versions suffered water intrusion". Again, the reason this could be true is that MOST Equinox are not used under water. The question should be, What...

    NOX LEAKING

    I'm not going to give you a long answer because there are those here that will say that I am wrong. They will say the broken coil ears and leaking control pods are just a myth. To get your best answer search " Leaking Minelab Equinox" on YouTube. You will find a few people that have had...

    Equinox 600 and 800 on sale everywhere!

    I wish I could help you out but I'd be surprised if you were in easter nc. I have the 11in coil and I want to sell local to avoid shipping and the new armed IRS agents.

    Equinox 600 and 800 on sale everywhere!

    I've had two 800s on a market place for sale, I think it's been a little over a week now and haven't gotten an offer.

    Excited about new Equinox

    You said it much better than I did. Very well put. And for those that would say "Minelab covered the repairs under warranty, and quickly" . Yes they did if the detector was still under warranty. But even those repairs or replacements are only warranted for three years from the original purchase...

    Minelab Manticore

    Has anyone heard a shipping date? I spoke to 2 dealers yesterday and they had no idea.

    Excited about new Equinox

    I'm not trying to get into a back and forth, but car manufacturers do recalls all the time. The shaft, arm cup, coil ears and housing are all different on the 700 and 900. Why did they change them if there are no problems with the 600 and 800? I don't know what kind of detecting people do with...

    Excited about new Equinox

    I know this wasn't directed at me but I definitely understand. The thing is that they didn't fix the problems. People with the 600 or 800 still have those problems and now they are stuck with detectors that they will almost have to give away if they want to sell them. So give away your 600 or...

    Minelab Manticore

    Maybe a 600 and 800 that doesn't leak and the coil ears don't break.
