I dive with Headhunter are there any other units better?

Just bought two headhunter PI units. Went out for a couple of hours and what an amazing difference in depth compared to the regular Headhunter Diver. My question is are there any other units that might be better and if so where can I buy these units?
I dive with the Keene 4" dredge/hookah and pull up 30 targets and hour easy sometimes more, so something that is deeper is not a problem with me.
By the way if anyone wants info on the Keene unit, let me know.
Appreciate any and all responses. HHJoe.
 
Joe, I'm assuming by "better" that you mean "deeper"? If so, then read on <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":)">
It's common knowledge that Eric Foster's PI units are the deepest seeking detector's on the market, and he hand builds them himself. I'd be surprised to read any posts that would dispute this claim.
I am 100% an end user, and use his Goldquest SS that I have set up for underwater detecting. Eric has recently introduced an underwater equivalent, called the Goldquest Aquasearch.
He also builds the Aquastar II, which I guess is the top of the line model. The depth increase over the Goldquest line of detectors with the Aquastar would probably be in the order of 15%-20%....Eric, or others can correct me on this one if I'm mistaken. With the Goldquest SS, and in 5 feet of water (I am 6 foot), I struggle to dig up the deep (Goldquest deep!!) targets.
I may sound like a dealer, but I'm not....I'm a very satisfied customer on the other side of the world. <IMG SRC="/metal/html/ausflag.jpg" BORDER=0 width=32 height=17 ALT="au~">
More information can be found at Mr. Bill's site, which is Surfscanner Detector's. (Now I really sound like a dealer)
PS Curious to know why you purchased 2 of the same detector's...have you got really long arms <img src="/metal/html/lol.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":lol">
 
Joe,
Perhaps the ground you were hunting in, (lake bottom), was heavy mineralized that
 
Hi Tony.
Thanks for the plug. <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":)">
The Headhunter PI is manufactured in upper state New York, USA. It
 
YES, basically all of them are better! The HH is a toy compared to the Fishers,Whites, even Garretts and especially the Minelabs. The Headhunter pi, had the best depth ability i've seen, but of course,it's a pi and the 2 I had and one another friend had, would not stop falsing for a minute, unless you tuned out most gold and then it still falsed! If it could be redesigned to not false, it would be a nice unit! I owned a Headhunter Wader and it's depth was worthless. Dont waste too much time with it, get a deep seeking detector instead. <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":)">
 
I found several rings with the wader at 7 to 11" at the beach. Depth is very good. not to mention a 24k bracelet
