    Older coil - newer detector?

    Would the older style 6.59 coils used with the 6000 series two (blue box, I think) work on a newer detector with minor modification? I believe the mounting holes for attaching the newer style lower rods on the coil were smaller on the older coils and should be easy to mod but would the connector...

    Explorer XS - Explorer II - Explorer SE

    Help! I am looking for someone who can help me pass an Explorer Trivia Test! I need some info on which to base which Explorer model will work for me. Naturally I would like to go for the SE but finances will not allow that at the present time. The stock coils on all three models are...

    Most popular detector ever produced

    Does anyone have any ideas as to what make and model of detector has sold the most machines in America? I would guess maybe the White's XLT because of how long it has been on the market? Or maybe Garrett's Ace 250? I bet they have sold a ton of them. Any other ideas?:shrug:

    Auto Geb/Auto Track

    When searching with the Auto GEB switch in the Auto Track position, what happens when I put the detector down while recovering a target? It appears to keep automatically tracking and changing the ground balance even when the detector is not in motion. Many times I have resumed searching and...

    Update White's battery

    I recently bought a used XLT that came with a rechargeable battery. It tested at 6 volts and my efforts to recharge it have only attained about 8 1/2 or maybe 9 volts. I am assuming this nicad battery is close to the end of its useful life as it should reach a somewhat higher voltage than that...

    Classic vs. Classic

    There were 2 different series of White's detectors that were named Classics. The Coinmaster Classic series I II & III with the control box located below the hand grip on top of the shaft and the Classic I II & III that had the control box located under the shaft and below your forearm when...

    Actual weight with batteries

    What is the actual weight of the Explorer XS, Explorer II, and the Explorer SE with batteries installed? I keep hearing about their weight but I wouldn't think they are any or much heavier than some of the other top of the line detectors.

    XLT case stickers

    Does the type of stickers found on the XLT reflect its age? Some XLTs have the rainbow on the case stickers and some don't. Are there any significant or even minor electronic differences in the older vs. newer XLT models? When did the first XLT come on the market?

    Meter needle "twitch"

    Well, I have been learning my 6000 Di Pro SL for a couple months or so and have recovered close to a quart jar of coins and 4 nice tokens. The Blue Max 600 coil has made this learning process much easier. After using the 600 I tried the 950 again but went right back to the 600 which does indeed...

    Medium sweep/Slow sweep

    My 6000/Di PRO SL has been described on this forum as a detector that has a medium or fast sweep speed. What effect does the sweep speed have on an operators efforts to decipher his detector's signals? My guess is that each type detector would have its pros and cons but I don't know what they...

    Blue Max 600 and Bullseye 5.3

    Are these coils the same with a different wrapper or just similar? They will both work well with my 6000/Di PRO sl?

    What is the difference

    What is the difference between the Bullseye 5.3 and the older Blue Max 600? They will both work with my old 6000/Di Pro SL which operates at 5.69 hz? I have been away from treasure hunting with a metal detector for over 20 years but some of those old diseases :surrender: come back! I have been...
