    Will Minelab Pro-Sonic wireless System work with the Equinox?

    Hey all, has anyone played around with the Pro-Sonic wireless system and the blue tooth connection integrated into the Equinox? I have the Pro-Sonic, and it would be nice to just link the Equinox to the receiving Module and use my favorite Gray Ghost headphones. Thanks...

    Question on recharging the XP Deus

    Just a curious/casual lurker here, not an XP Deus owner. I'm curious about recharging the XP Deus and any situations that have come up where you ran out of juice. From what I've been able to gather, each of the three components, the coil, remote, and headphones all require their own individual...

    So here are some pictures of some recent outings. The first group represents the first 8 or so hours at a new site. Private property, house was built in 1982, however the property is part of an area that was a revolutionary war encampment for the Americans. It is near the edge of a lake...

    Gold, silver, old copper, a nice day today!

    So I visited a site from late last year today. Last time I visited the back yard had just had a new septic/drainage field put in. I found a decent amount, but the signals were hard as the soil was all freshly disturbed. I figured now that it had an entire winter and summer for the grass to...

    :minelab: How do you keep your SE cool???

    So, I find myself wondering what long term damage I may be doing by keeping my detector in my car at all times. Is anyone else doing this? My car sits out in the parking lot at work all day long, and on hot days I know it gets burning hot in my car. I have a Prius, so it's not in a trunk...

    GOOD Friday finds silver coin, ring, and 2lb ingot?

    So a friend and I hit an old park on Friday, an old picnic grove which has been producing pretty well. We have yet to visit without each of us leaving with silver and IH's. This past Friday was no exception. It was late in the day when I got my first piece of silver a nice ring with what I...

    New site, old site both produce.... one really screwed up war nickel!

    So, I had a nice weekend. I finally could not resist any longer and hit this site I got permission to detect last year. I'm glad I did as it produced very well. A nice collection of coppers including my first fatty IH, and a 1869 semi-key IH and a 1864, not sure about the L. Also, a nice old...

    1850's house, eclectic group of relics including old Chinese wax seal stamp!

    So, brought the 5 year old to a fishing derby today, 5 hours of agony, not even a nibble between the two of us, and another 25 minutes listening to a raffle we didn't win. So, needless to say once the kiddo was at home and being entertained by someone other than myself, I headed back to this...

    I found that my

    Explorer went boom yesterday before I could use it!!!!! :rage: I turned it on, pushed the manual/semi auto button to turn it on manual sensitivity, and then pushed the button to lower the sensitivity down, the third push my detector turned off. I figured my finger had pushed the off button by...

    1st weekend with 15X18 SEF - NICE results!

    So, I managed to win an eBay auction for a very lightly used 15X18 SEF coil. Between the winning bid, a discount coupon, rewards points, and ebay gift cards I ended up only being out of pocket around $125 for it. I also just had my Explorer SE serviced at Minelab, so this past weekend was the...

    What grip are you all using? (my stock one has had it)

    So, my old foam grip is basically done for and I was hoping to solicite some advise from those of you out there that have replaced theirs. What has worked for you? What hasn't? My only problem with the foam grip was that dirt and mud would really get in there, and there was no way to get it...

    Explorer SE vs SE PRO

    Hey, I was reading some other posts and googling around trying to find the exact differences between the SE and the SE PRO. When the PRO first came out I had been under the impression that the only difference was the coil. Reading around a bit more, several years later I've found references to...

    :ranting:Gloved bandit made off with my merc and laundered it!!!!

    So, the washing machine starts going crazy tonight, overloaded with my heavy detecting clothes. I decided I needed to take it all out and redistribute it as the washer was trying to walk across the floor. As I'm lifting out some clothes I hear the plink plink sound of a coin dropping. I look...

    Hunt 4 1850's house silver coin spill colonial copper? need ID help

    So this past Monday I had the day off from work and decided to make a day of the 1850's house. I got there about 9:30AM and didn't leave until after 4PM...Ahhhh detecting bliss. (oh, and probably 3+ hours of mowing) So I had a section of the front lawn I hadn't finished my second grid/pass...

    Hunt 3 1850's house more silver, almost gold and relics

    So these are the finds from the third trip to an 1850's house. I'd say I split detecting and mowing on this hunt 50-50 as the caretakers lawn mower had broken. Surprisingly he did not have an issue with me mowing the yard so I could detect! I tried a few new areas I hadn't detected in the...

    Kellyco got some SEF coils in.... did anyone get a 12X15?

    Well I am happy to report I received my 6X8 and 10X12 SEF coils back yesterday, I know many of us have been waiting a while for KellyCo to get them in. It was killing me since I had to return mine and exchange for new ones. (thank you awesome Kellyco Customer service) I was going through...

    Why the Explorer SE rocks.....

    I was pretty impressed with both of these targets. Each were fairly deep around 8 or so inches. Not too impressive given their size, however, the fact that I got a squawk of a nice signal from these is what got my juices going. In both cases the copper/brass portion of the relic are attached...

    Second visit to 1850's house - cool relics

    So, not a lot of silver, or old coins this visit, not that the first visit had old coins, all 1900's. The silver dime is my first canadian silver, so that was nice. I did start to break the 1700's and 1800's barrier with the relics this time out. The No 0 trade bell/crotal is in really nice...

    First 3 hours at 1850's house plus other finds from June

    Here are some of my June highlights: First group was from last years honey hole, I've visited it 20 or so times and I pull at least 1 silver 75% of the time. The second group was from an old park. A friend and I detected some wooded hills that are off the main part of the park. As it turns...
