After speaking to bfodness he said judging by the design and battery placement the weight will be neutralized due to perfect balance. We will see, 5 pounds isn't a lot, but neither is an E-Trac and that hurts after hours. If it is indeed balanced nice, then those who left the E-Trac might come back.

Weight is weight. I suppose Minelab could make a 10 pound detector and say you won't notice it because it is "perfectly balanced." How much better it would be if it only weighed 3 pounds and was perfectly balanced. Then you have something there.
