Thoughts on F75 and T2

[virginia digger]

Just wondering what your thoughts were on the F75 and T2 detectors. I have had them both. I like the ergonomics, very light. They just feel very poorly made. The new F75 failed to work out of the box. Called First Texas and they said send unit back. So I did (at my cost). The coil was bad....so much for quality assurance. I still feel the original Fishers were made better and had fewer problems. Felix at Fisher Service told me almost daily someone calls and asks where they can purchase a 1266. Maybe I'm an old timer......but I never liked Bounty Hunter detector even in sheep's clothing !
Your thoughts ???

I'll be honest I love the newer Fisher detectors I've never had but the best of luck with their machines in service and finds. They're a lot tougher than you think trust me I've took some spills with mine. The old School Fisher company made some great machines but the customer service with the new Fisher company is awesome. They stand behind what they sale and if something goes wrong they will make it right.

I like my F-75 and T-2.I never had any issues with either one.I feel the build quality is good.Just because a detector is light does not mean its poorly made or cheap.That being said their is no comparison (IMO) of the old Fisher to the the new one.The old CZ's are still some of the best detectors ever made and built like tanks.I have had very few problems if any with my old Fishers and they are depth monsters.

I think if you compared all detectors except a few of the Whites .Their all built much lighter today.
Look at Garrett for an example..The older CTX series were tanks.. Most have transitioned to plastic cases. Processors over circuit boards less batteries etc.



F75 detectors are not Bounty Hunter platform detectors.
