    Other Brands AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    Well I took the punt on the new kid on the block and grabbed one from Nenad. I based my decision on what I have seen from our compatriot @ Phrunt from across the ditch. He has some great vids over on the DP forum of the machine in action on some pretty small gold. Also shows it’s target ID’s...

    Return after 3 year Break

    A bit hard with a broken detector. :confused: Nenad quite often has 2nd hand coils for sale. Anyway I’m sure he could advise you of all your options.

    Return after 3 year Break

    Sorry to hear about your coil ears breaking (a common issue with Nox coils). Do you deal through Nenad aka PhaseTech on here. He’s a Minelab agent and lives in Shiedow Pk. He is great at dealing with issues like these and local to both of us. For me I consider myself fortunate to be able to do...

    How much does it cost in fuel to drive to Kalgoorlie, for you?

    I own a 2011 Forester 2.5L petrol and get 9/10 litres/ 100 around town.

    How much does it cost in fuel to drive to Kalgoorlie, for you?

    If you can, try and plan your trip for a weather window with consistent tailwinds like this coming few days.... as in weather maps like you see here, with southeasterly/ easterly winds. http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/charts/4day_col.shtml Your Forester should return around 8 or 9 litres/...

    Return after 3 year Break

    Looks like we’re practically neighbours then. Actually I was at Brighton today looking to take take advantage of the crowds that were there yesterday for the Maraliyn jetty swim. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-02-04/marilyn-monroe-lookalikes-make-a-splash-in-adelaide/103425556 My first target...

    Return after 3 year Break

    Welcome Liz.... I’m also in Adelaide and mainly beach hunt between Henley and Seacliff as I live in Hallett Cove. Hot summer weather has finally kicked in and the crowds are flocking to the beaches in numbers at last. Consequently there have been slim pickings to this point ( for me anyway), so...

    Garrett New PI from Garrett, Axiom

    You and your wife have the ideal situation to do a side by side comparison with an undug target ( gold preferably) on the two machines.... would be interesting to see by how much the 6000 trumps the Axiom on size and depth.

    Other Brands AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    Moneybox, I’m pretty sure it’s there to tell you about the size, and therefore relative conductivity of the target (low on small gold and higher on larger bits). It won’t discriminate between ferrous and non ferrous I believe, unless there are any tonal differences between the two. Most probably...

    Other Brands AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    As Nenad is the sole agent atm, I wonder if he has had some input in its development. There are some attractive new ideas, like compatibility with GP/GPX coils, external generic power bank options and ambient noise function through headphones. Looks well made.... may have to visit Mr. Lonic :)

    Whites Whites SPP Adding Conductivity switch

    I think you just need to find a suitable spot on the top or front of the housing that will accommodate the switch internally and drill a hole the same size as the shaft of the switch. Then silicone seal between the housing and washers and tighten up. There is a toggle switch mounted on the front...

    Whites Whites SPP Adding Conductivity switch

    Yes, I did it myself with the switch and and wired plug as you showed in your previous post. They were supplied to me by ‘Luke’ , a Whites guru who new the Tdi’s very well. He has long since disappeared from the forum. From memory he told me to bridge the terminals at C42 ( I think) on the...

    Whites Whites SPP Adding Conductivity switch

    Yes, the On-Off-On toggle switch is correct as stated. Here is a pic of my SPP with the Cond. switch mounted up front with a fabricated aluminium guard for protection.

    Garrett Garrett Sea Hunter Mark 2

    This is what is used for car battery terminal cleaning....It would have a similar effect to Nesral’s suggestion above. Just let some soak on the terminals for awhile and brush off with warm water and blow dry.
