    Charging question

    That USB adapter can have anywhere from 500ma output to 3amps. If you are unsure, pull it from the wall and read it.

    Charging question

    Would really depend on the charger you use. The unit has some peak draw (perhaps 2 amps?), but if you used an older 500ma charger then it would take much longer. I think the 3-4 hours is to cover all the bases in case someone plugs into an old USB charger.

    New to the Legend been using the Whites V3i and Minelab Excallibur II 800 since 2008

    I had a v3 from when they first came out, and had it converted to a v3i when the upgrade was first made available. Had a DFX for many years before that. Used the V3i up until I took a break from detecting 5-6 years ago. When I came back I decided to try something new and bought the Legend. I...

    This is NOT a loaded question for the legend... to those that had already purchased one..

    I can't say that, this was new ground for me. But it was difficult conditions (4-8inch tall scrub brush and briar next to industrial buildings with high power lines). Literally the only non-trash target I found in 2 hours.

    This is NOT a loaded question for the legend... to those that had already purchased one..

    I have only been able to go out twice since I have had it, mostly to test. I have had some frustrations with EMI, but I don't think that's the Legend's fault. Found a draped bust half cent on my second outing so I can't complain.

    Where is the Legend 13.5''x12.5'' Coil?

    i'll wait for reports before I order. I usually end up collecting too many coils and don't use them. Was hoping for a 5x9 like the legend.

    Where is the Legend 13.5''x12.5'' Coil?

    I got an e-mail that my dealer has the LG35 in stock. So it's out there now.

    Ground balance

    If anyone has a good process for manual balance please share. If I do automatic I get a radically different number every time when done in the same location.

    Legend ID #s

    In my couple of outings I have found zink pennies in the mid 30s, copper pennies around 44/45, dimes 46/47, and quarters 48-50. Kennedy Half was 52 I think. Haven't found any silver yet. Would be nice to have some more separation in the mid 40s. Seems like 1 VDI difference between pull-tab to...

    Legend - first impressions

    Figured I would provide an update after round 2. Same park, updated firmware, 2 hour hunt. First hour with the 9 inch coil and it was absolutely rock solid stable at 30 gain. After an hour I paused to use the restroom/check phone, came back and it was a bit less stable. Tried ground balancing...

    Legend Meter Cover

    I looked a few up online, didn't see one with a rounded back like yours. Where did you find it?

    Legend - first impressions

    For an alternate perspective, today was also my very first day out with the legend. Spent about an hour at a fairly hunted out park with no power (so I would assume not much EMI). Used the 11 inch coil, haven't tried the small one yet. My machine was very chatty in every every mode and every...

    Some observations on the legend. Some good, some bad.

    Bill, did you have a chance to play with the tone break and recovery? I have seen some videos with both set to 7 that seem to have pretty impressive performance in the trash. Did you try the smaller coil? I think the locking up was supposed to be fixed in 1.05 firmware. The vdi separation is...

    NOKTA/MAKRO LEGEND THE REAL TEST METAL DETECTING VIDEO

    Good video. I saw that he had his recovery at 7, but did he say what the iron audio cut was at?

    Legend Day 2 Finds Gold

    Well hopefully I didn't make a mistake, but I ordered the pro-pack because I saw the price increase on the Nokta website and there's no way I was going to pay $900 (might as well do $100 and get the Nox 800 at that point). I watched a couple of videos showing it do well in the wet salt beach so...

    Email Today

    Pulled the trigger today on the pro pack, but apparently will have to wait for the second shipment as they had already sent out the first lot they received. I am hoping they find a way to improve wet salt sand or people find a good set of settings (I.E. is it better to reduce sens or increase...

    anfibio/legend power cords

    Haven't seen either, but generally the power brick will tell you the voltage, amperage, and if the center is pos/neg. You want to be close on the voltage (generally a volt or two up/down isn't a big deal), equal or greater on the amps (lower means it may try to draw too much power for the brick...

    Legend Day 2 Finds Gold

    My primary justification for purchasing a new detector is that my current one doesn't do well in the sand and isn't water proof. Anyone figure out if the legend is better on the beach and in the water than the Simplex+? If not I may just save some money.
