Apart from EU electrical conformity's for Europe, none.
The 'plastic' locking collar cracking is found to be common to both USA supplied T2s and UK import suppliers.
It's a minor inconvenience which will be resolved I'm sure, by First Texas.
Simply e-mail First Texas with your item's s/n etc or contact supplier.
No such trivial inconvenience will deter me from using the T2.

Question to US T2 users :-
Some refer differentially to the T2 as a RELIC detector whilst others imply its 'best' for COINS..Why do you do so? (Just curious)
The Teknetics T2 IS A METAL DETECTOR...for ANY type of detecting pursuit.
Sunday gave us (John M. and I) the opportunity to compare in true field usage, the T2 against another top brand detector.
I give no names to avoid to appear to criticise that other unit, for it has a fine well proven pedigree.
That was the essence of the test...T2 against one of the best.
On those items where comparisons were made, the 'other' unit was able to detect and identify with complete assurance.
The performance then had to be made on the total finds count during both the comparative analysis of finds and the 'free' searching over the complete day.
In the hands of John M. the T2 was a clear winner. No ifs or but about the results.
The ability of the T2 to resolve a target's 'diggable' status, enabled speedier and more resolute searching.
Odd pieces of LARGE, WET, RUSTY IRON fools all detectors, so they were common to both units.
Such targets are 'positive' for reasons of the the decayed magnetic component of the metal and the wet rust residue. The target's form is usually found to be of a flat nature (but not necessarily so), and the shapes high area-to-thickness ratio.
The ratio of finds...About 11 to 1 coinage. Other targets 10 to 3.
I can only restate my personal opinion. The T2 is an unassuming but technically dynamic class leader. Other manufactures/ designers will have to pull up their socks, read the mail and get back to basics.
The T2..Simply swift, sure and sophisticated.
The Fisher F75 may add 'Top hat and tails' to it, but as long as they don't alter its fundamental capabilities inhered from its 'father' then I can't wait.
All I can say is "Hello Son. Welcome to my world"
To round off this post, a few pictures, from what started out as a sunny day in Wales to one of an overcast afternoon. Regardless of the chill wind in the shade John and I had an enjoyable day...HH
