    Video and why the V3i is so good

    Check out this video......Youtube video It shows that multi frequency machines cannot detect chains. Well except for one that I know of....the V3i. I found some small gold and silver chains that I had laying around and did the exact same test....with chains only. The V3i detected the...

    RnB hp 2900 and 3100 difference..owners of both please help...

    I have the 3100. I had the 2900. A friend wanted it so I sold it to him and got the 3100. The 2900 will do you just fine. The 3100 has a little bit more capacity but you will never ever run the 2900 down even if you run it 12 hours a day.....which most people cannot do. The 2900 will do you...

    etrac to vx3

    I owned an E-trac for many years. Thought it was a great detector. Sold it a few years ago to get into water hunting. Had a chance to use a V3i and after that, I was hooked. The V3i is way more adjustable than the E-trac. I find it also more stable in many cases. Plus I love the fact that I...

    headphones v3i

    The WR700's have been discontinued. You may find some available still. I see some on E-bay. I have used those also and they do work well. The transmitter is small on the WR700's which is really nice. Here is a photo of my Sennheiser RS160 wireless headphones that I use on my V3i. I have...

    RnB HP-3100 Lithium-ion 12v Battery

    Just recently ordered the RnB HP-3100 Lithium-ion 12v Battery. My Nicad from White's was not getting completely charged and so I needed a new battery pack. I have the AA battery pack and use 2500 mah Enloop rechargeables and they seem to work well. But they are heavy. And a pain to recharge...

    headphones v3i

    The TDK WR700 system is no longer being made. I found the SENNHEISER RS160 Digital Wireless Headphones System on E-bay for a lot less new. It also uses the Kleer system. It may take a little more work to fool proof the Sennheiser 160 system, but there are sites that show how to do it. I have...

    To chest mount or not?

    I've had lots of fun with the Excalibur metal detectors and have made some great finds. I've used the straight shafts from Plugger and have built my own. Plugger has some great products. His shaft locks are awesome! I really like the straight shaft as it is way better than the factory shaft...

    This forum topic is nice, but would it be possible......

    to list not only the find but also the machine that was used to find it and a guess at the depth? I know this has been mentioned previously and some are doing that already but it sure is nice to hear what others are using. Like, this is a photo of the box of 100 twenty dollar flying eagle...

    New forum layout

    Not sure why, but I now get a huge listing of reply posts under a topic with a listing of all the views. I preferred the old more concise list with the name of the original poster and pages and views instead of this new version with a total listing of all the replies. It makes for a very...

    Where can I get the MALE Ikelite connector?

    I've been able to get the female Ikelite connector as it is part of the Alkaline battery pod. Now my problem is, where can I get the male connector that fits into it? I know the factory battery charger has it. Can I use the one that comes with that, rewire it and use it as a connector for...

    The original SEF coils that were on E-bay and were about the only place they were available nowadays is no longer available from the manufacturer in the US. It is available everywhere else though. Also available through another dealer in the UK at inflated prices. Like $275 US. Seems that they...

    13 inch Detech Ultimate coil review

    I decided that I was going to try the Detech 13 inch Ultimate coil on my Excalibur II 1000, actually an Excalibur II 1500 as I was using the WOT coil on it. I kept reading all the different comments on how well or not how well it works on other detectors. I have had this coil now for two days...

    12x10 SEF

    I've been trying to get a 12 x10 SEF coil and it has been an exercise in futility! I'm using a modified Minelab Excalibur with straight shaft, Mel Parker / OBN remote switch and the 1600mah battery. I have used in the past the WOT coil on it but I was not happy with the waters edge...

    Can a coil go bad?

    I've been a Minelab Excalibur user for many years. I've modified all 4 of mine that I have had and have never have had a problem till now. I've run the WOT coil on my most recent Excalibur II now since it was new. It has the remote switch, 1600 MAH battery and straight shaft. But I was having...

    PI threshold slope tone

    I've been hunting the beaches of the Gulf coast lately and have been using my new White's Dual field. I've found one gold / platinum ring and so it has paid for itself already. I have noticed that while in the water, the threshold gets louder as I go deeper in the water. It is especially loud...
