    Hi Dave, This may have already been answered but I can't find it on the forum. What is/was the thinking behind setting the G2/G2+/Goldbug Pro to take 9v batteries? Is it convinency of carrying only 1 battery vs 4 ? Or is there a "deeper" meaning to it? Thanks

    Silent searching in All Metal- G2

    Hi guys, so I started experiencing with AM (i'm more of a Disc kinda guy) but don't seem to see any difference between being at -5 / -10 and being at " hum" level, in terms of depth (both air and ground). Is it really much better,according to your experience, to be in "hum" level when in AM?

    I opened a 11' DD coil....

    I have a G2 but when the coil brushes something or hits stubbles, it falses. So I decided to open the box on the DD coil. This was a struggle a bit due to the black plastic sealant but I managed.

    What's that trick again?

    Hello gents, I remember reading somewhere that you can increase the depth of your G2/GBug when ground balancing. You do a normal GB then turn it down to almost Disc but then crank it up to a certain threshold or something. Does that ring a bell to anyone? Apparently it increases depth by about...

    Hi there I live in the UK have have recently purchased a G2 after the ace 250. I don't have a coil cover on my 11" coil and when I'm out digging it gets chatty when the coil just slightly brushes grass. I tried to lower the gain from 100 to 65-70 and it's a bit better but still a tad...
