    Bandido II uMAX Best All-Around Tesoro Detector Ever?

    I've seen more "best ever" claims for this Tesoro than any other. Are the claims justified??

    9-Volt Battery Powered Detectors

    I came across a post recently where the poster said that he'd never use a detector powered with a single 9-volt battery. This is the third or fourth time I've read a post like this. Unfortunately, none of the posters explained why they believed the 9-volt powered machines were somehow less...

    Is It Possible to Notch Out Pulltabs and Still Find Gold?

    Is digging hundreds of Pulltabs the price we have to pay to find an occasional gold ring or is there a way to notch out Pulltabs and still find the gold?

    Gold Bug Pro vs Gold Bug 29'er

    I've got both and am finding it difficult to tell the difference between them performance-wise. They both hit hard on silver and they've both found jewelry. If it were you would you keep both and if not, which one would you let go?

    Compadre with 8" Coil

    Has anyone tried the Compadre with one of the new 8" coils yet? I'm wondering how they compare with the 5.75" coil in actual field use.

    Compadre - Fine Gold Magnet?

    I read the following on another forum. Is any part of it true? The Compadre runs @ 12kHz as do some of the other Tesoro models but the Compadre hits better on lower conductors than the other 12kHz models. This is because of the Compadre's ED-180 circuitry and the fact that its circuitry is...

    Any VX3 Fans Here?

    In most of the V3i vs. VX3 posts I've read here and elsewhere, the V3i seems to be favored 10 to 1. So I'm wondering what if anything the VX3 has to offer the detectorist that the V3i does not. To put it another way, under what circumstances (if any) might the VX3 be preferred over the V3i.

    Quick Response/Fast Recovery Detectors?

    What does it really mean to say that a particular detector has a quick response and a fast recovery? In reading a variety of posts, folks seem to cite these attributes as being highly desirable. If that's the case, wouldn't all detector manufacturers strive to design machines that are of the...

    OK - Do Coins Sink or Not?

    After they're dropped, do coins sink or are they simply covered over by new surface materials (e.g., dirt, grass, etc.)? I've heard both arguments but don't know if anyone has ever put either theory to the test.

    Saturated Audio and VCO

    I've seen these terms bandied about in various posts but have never had a clear understanding of what they mean. All explanations and/or clarifications would be appreciated.

    Cleansweep Coil on Manual Ground Balance Machines

    Can anyone tell me if Cleansweep coils used on manual ground balance machines (e.g., the Vaquero, the Outlaw, the Bandidi II uMax, etc.) are ground balanced the same as Big Foot coils are on Whites machines (I.e., tip down at a 45 degree angle)?

    Tesoro Comparison - Bandido II uMAX vs Outlaw

    The folks over on the Tesoro forum don't seem interested in responding to my post asking for a performance comparison between the new Outlaw and the Bandido II uMAX. I've heard that these two detectors are very similar, but I'd like to know if there are any significant differences. If there...

    Bandido II uMAX vs. Outlaw

    Now that the Outlaw has been out for a while, I thought I'd ask those of you who have experience with both the Outlaw and the Bandido II uMAX for some performance feedback. How do they compare and which do you prefer? Of course I know that getting three coils with the Outlaw is a great thing...

    Whites 5.3 Coil Post Below - CORRECTION

    I should have asked for a Bullseye 5.3 - not an Eclipse 5.3. If you have a Bullseye coil F'S, give me a holler.
