    New use for HF pin-pointer with CTX,,,,,,

    The case is PERFECT for a WM-10 transmmitter,,,,,, it slips on your belt with the hole at the bottom for your HP chord to go thru. The case is thin enough so that you can feel the buttons to turn it off and on,,,, and does a good job of protection the unit.

    Use the S/N found in the battery box for warranty registration,,,

    the control panel has one, the coil, the BC 10, WM 10, Li-ion battery pack,,,, miss any ???
  16. G

    Is the WM-10 battery a Lit-ion or NiMH ????

    curious to know how to charge it as far as running it down all the way or throwing it on the charger ASAP after each hunt... I'm thinking it's not a Lit-ion cuz you can charge it off a USB
