    The Vanquish manual says that the Relic mode is the deepest mode. i'm wondering if the all metal mode is an even deeper mode then the Relic mode. Andre

    Looking for a waterproof headphone for the Minelab Vanquish.

    I just bought me a new Minelab 540 for treasure hunting the Beach, I used to use a LS Pelto headphone on my Minelab Equinox but that one does not fit the Vanquish. I also have a Sunray headphone, but that does not fit also. I'm looking for a waterproof headphone that also blocks the sounds of...

    I bought this battery pack last month. I tried to use my old battery charger that I still had from my old Sovereign GT, but that did not work. I'm wondering what kind of charger I need to use for this battery. ??

    I 'm a bit confused about the Sensitivity knob on my Sovereign Elite. I'm talking about the beach setting. I only search the beach. When I use the white part of the beach setting and move it to the right it becomes more sensitive, but when I look at the bottom part of the scale it looks like...

    Finding me a beach pigeon.

    Went to my local beach yesterday and found this smal pigeon. To me it looks bronze and old. I found some old 1700 items before on this beach. The edges of the pigeon are awfully shiny, that indicates to me that it has been rolling in the surf for several time. Perhaps one of you has any...

    Minelab Souvereign XS 2A

    I just purchased this old Minelab Souvereign XS 2A. It came with 2 coils and a meter. I only like to use this detector on the Beach. I Like to buy a bigger coil for this detector, I was thinking about a 15 inch WOT. I'm wondering if it is possible to fit the WOT on this detector. Or perpaps...

    Another strange ring from the Beach.

    Today I went to the beach and found this ring. I used the Equinox 600 and it rang up as a 8 on the meter. It is a strange ring because one small side of the ring is flat and has a gold colour the rest of the ring looks white gold or a silver colour.. The inside of the ring has a small hole and...

    In Doubt ....

    I think I found my first piece of gold today with the Equinox. It looks like gold but the clasp says 925 Silver. Is it possible that the clasp is silver but the earring is gold. There is no mark on the earring itself. It gave a VDI of 9, what is in the gold range. If it was silver the VDI...

    Foamed - in.

    Went back to my local beach, but as you can see there was a lot of sea foam on the beach. I purchased a new Equinox 600 three weeks ago and now I'm working on getting to know the detector. Especially the sounds are something I have to get used to. Still think the sounds of the Equinox are...

    Equinox Beach 1 and Beach 2 Factory Presets.

    When I look at the Minelab Equinox Users Manual and see the Beach1 and Beach 2 Factory Presest they are exactly the same. But still Minelab keeps saying that it is better to use Beach 2 for hunting the surf. What is going on here ..... Andre www.diggers.world
