A White's dealer tells me that a new MXT will be out within the next 60 days. Has anyone one else heard this and if so, what are some of the new features?......... Don

New 2010 MXT Model - Anyone Have Any Info?
- Thread starter Folsom Don

I've been with for a backlight too. However, I feel it still leaves the dilemna of searching in a dark hole in the ground.
I've been using Eveready's LED headlamps. Three setting, tilting lights with adjustable band. Very comfortable.
Obviously follows the head turning to screen or coil or dig. Only drawback might be being more conspicuous hunting
with the headlight. What do you folks say??

I am set up for night hunting well on my V3 and you can use (or not use) any of these to adjust to where your hunting.
1. Flip up LED Velcroed to pod. (Learned that from here.)
2. Hat clip LED.
3. Single light LED mounted in Lecshe/digger.
4. Strong mini Mag-Lite to recharge dayglo pad.
May be lit up like a helicopter but the retrieval times are as fast as a day hunt.

Alright, I'm trying to control myself but that detector reminds me of looking at the biggest present under the tree with my name on it. There's a small rip in the wrapping but I can't quite make out the details. What's the new graphics on the screen pod ? or is it a touch-pad with controls for the new features ? Must save $ now. MXT w/new features to make it better, how much better can it be ??? Happy, happy, happy......

P.S.- I might be overstating it but a new MXT with these features at the same price is just what the economy needs to turn around !

In my opinion they should use the D2 coil as a stock coil, I seen a prototype close-up a month ago on a forum and the poster never said anything about the kind of detector he was using, I sent him a PM and his return was I wasn't supposed to notice by the pic but he said the detector was a prototype he was testing and he thought they might call it the MXT -Pro.
These detector companies are clever!
They know the DD coil is a superior coil so they won't ever put one on as a stock model.
The fact of the matter is they know many people will need and want to buy the DD coil and the cash register rings KaChing ! for them again.
It's the sales and marketing plan IMO

You might very well be exactly right Larry. Whites and every other manufacturer is running a business that needs a marketing plan to continue to be profitable. As far as I'm concerned, with Whites manufacturing quality and customer service, if selling some more of their excellent coils is their plan to continue sales, that's fine by me. They are just taking advantage of the fact that MD'ers, by nature, are, and have to be, tinkerers and most of us like/need to try-out, trade, and buy different coils. I think Whites just recognizes this fact about our trade and intelligently makes use of it. A much better way to ensure continuing profits than making inferior products that have to be replaced because they break or become outdated. ( planned obsolescence ) As long as the machine is good you're going to need more than one coil anyways, regardless of the stock one, and especially as coil technology evolves, so this strategy does not nescessarily force the consumer to waste money on extra unnescessary coils. If the stock coil is not optimum for you, there's always someone you can trade/sell it to who can use it...that's what we do.larryk56 said:
