    Second thoughts on the V3....

    Jason. I am still using the stock coil and as far as the settings go, seems each day is different. By that I mean prior to yesterday, I was using the Salt beach mode exclusively, but then I switched to the Hi-pro as I was getting more false hits in the salt mode than I like to hunt with. That...

    Second thoughts on the V3....

    Hi Barry...Mostly Rockaway Beach. As far as the Vision goes, I've also used the Tejon and Quattro but this Vision surely beats them both. As I said, detecting is fun again. Just never know what finds I'll come home with. Enjoy your stay in the Apple.

    Second thoughts on the V3....

    Hi jason...I'm also a beach hunter and so far in the last 4 days, got 3 golds, 2 silver and one of those silvers was a Tiffany .925...value: $200.00...I simply think the Vision (before it was changed to the V3) is one hell'uva beach machine and my count on quarters in the last 3 days, 60, 33...

    batt.

    Can anyone tell me how many hours we should get out of 1) the rechargable battery and 2) 8 alkalines. I do not use the backlight as I feel this will really drain batteries. Also, when pinpointing, another battery drainer. Thanks Jim

    Recovery test.

    While I was on the beach, got a great signal, 83, which is a quarter and when I took a scoop of sand, looked in the scoop, had two pull tabs and the quarter...I'm convinced the Vision knows a good thing when it "sees" it....Jim Remember: "Some guys get older and wiser and some just...

    The V3 comes with training

    Larry..like the previous posts, I also had no help from my dealer. I'm not 100% certain they knew any more than I did. As a matter of fact, I paid and they handed me the Vision in a box and said "good luck". Good bit of info I'd say. But like the others, I'm learning it as I go, reading a lot of...

    I'd Pay For a Hands-On Training Workshop

    Hi David...no way are you off base and as a matter of fact, I think you hit a grand slam...Not only would I be glad to join in the seminar, but I'd even travel to the closest one to us here in the northeast. That's one fine thought on your part. Thanks, Jim

    THANKS WHITE'S :cheers: :whites:

    Roy: I called my distributor and I'm going to his shop on Tuesday to get fitted for a new coil. I'll be happy to have a whole detector, good coil and all for this hunt up in Connecticut. We start on Weds and end on Sunday. Tks again. Regards and HH, Jim

    THANKS WHITE'S :cheers: :whites:

    Hi Roy...was it in all programs or just a few?.. Mine sounds off in the salt beach program and I'm unable to ground balance it with any confidence that it worked. In GB, there's a scratchy signal, not the nice even hum. I'm on my way to Connecticut with it but will definitely check with my...

    For people having issues at the beach...

    I'm glad to hear of White's standing behind their product like that. I'll give them a call tomorrow to see what can be done with mine. Thanks for all the info, Jim

    Alkaline batteries

    What's the best expected life of these batteries, 5 hours, 10 hours, 15 hours? Oh and BTW, my wireless headphones batteries also ran dry. I assumed I had problems with the phones but I forgot the two batteries in there. Fixed the problem. Thanks...

    Roll Call

    I think I'm the first to buy one in brooklyn. No regrets so far. Haven't been to the fields yet but do the beaches a lot. Like most posters, gonna learn this machine as it has so much potential and like someone said to me, give it 6 months to learn it and then give an evaluation, things will...

    Deciding on cordless hdphones or not

    Mike...I have the cordless headphones and like other posters, they are a godsend. Getting used to the startup volume is something that will come with time. They are really loud so I just start up the phones with the earcuffs on my temples rather than the ears. Then I can move them back to where...

    I just made an ash out of myself

    Hi Fred...Never detected Attu but I did spend one year on Adak and that was before the consuming public had these wonderful detectors we have today. On Adak, we had a few downed Zero's and some gun emplacements and that was when I was stationed there in Sept 1957 to Sept 1958. Also had an...

    my first 20 mins

    HI xGregX...heading out to the beach with mine today. Just picked it up the other day but must admit, I'm not 100% impressed with the dealer but maybe it's just me...Time will tell. I hope I'm wrong. Hope to post some good news when I get back later today. Jim
