    I'm considering a compadre. What mods have you guys done to this little guy? Anything welcomed. Increased sens, all welcomed. I saw a sens mod on here the other but can't find it now. What have you got? I have other and expensive detectors I just don't want to void the warranty on, but...

    Want...Compadre info.

    Hi. I've never read anything bad about a Compadre. I'm considering getting one and modding it a bit. Many times I drive by some Tot-lot or some other good looking site, and wish I had my detector with me, but don't. This detector would be a great candidate for modding to fit in a "Matchbox!"...

    Battery caution.

    Many will think this is overkill, but it happened to me the other day. I got in a Geiger counter with a brand spanking new, still in shrink wrapper, battery. I opened it up and tried out the counter. It worked Ok but after a while I just couldn't help but think "You'd think this thing would...

    Yesterday, around 3:PM some dirtbag did a oncoming left hand turn, no turn signal, right in front of my son's Toyota, my son never even had time to lift his foot from the floor, but hit the small commercial truck in the rider's door at probably 50 mph. My son only suffered cuts and bruises, a...

    New Grey Ghost Ultimate > 4" LST DD coil.:thumbup:

    Hi, I have a new set of Grey Ghost Ultimate headphones for trade for a 4 +- " DD coil for a Lobo ST. Or, would sell for $80.00 shipped (lower 48). What do you have? A used working in excellent condition DD coil would be Ok.

    Grey Ghost Ultimate's Flaw....:yikes:

    Yep, they got here. They work well. You can turn on the limiter, turn the volume control wide open and get a little more range (air test) while the limiter prevents large objects from hurting your ears. They also have a switch to turn them off ????? I don't think they they have a battery...

    Lobo curious...........!

    You guys that use Lobo's with/out headphones, in the wild. Keep your eyes open. I'm curious if you notice any animals around you more than you normally would. You know, strange dogs, Coyotes, bears, cougars, wolverines, birds of prey, etc. I notice my Lobo ST sounds more like a dying animal...

    Dying, wounded animal......:surprised:

    I joke around a lot as you guy's know by now, many times I've referred to my Lobo ST as a Rubber Ducky. But last night I was air testing it when the thought came "this detector really sounds like a dying, wounded animal.....:surprised: Now you guys that detect with buddies don't have this...

    Want Plastic Bags......:confused:

    Maybe you can help....! When I'm out looking for gold on dry stream beds, I need a way to collect "shovel fulls" of sand & gravel to label, and transport back for panning out at home. Paper grocery bags don't get it. You wind up with a car full of dirt and split bags. I need some heavy duty...

    Limiter:huh:

    Long ago, a company manufactured an add on limiter. It was a passive device (no battery needed) and plugged in between your 'phones and the detector. Very small, and it worked. Anyone remember who made this thing :poke: Yeah, I know a battery powered one was also available, but no longer...

    Garrett Propointer battery question:poke:

    Anyone know what the black Eveready battery is, shipped with Propointers? I checked it with a D.C. Digital Multimeter, it read out about 9.9 volts, no load. (New Copper Tops are around 9.5 volts.) Thats about a 1/2 volt difference, and a small performance change. I swear the volume and...
