    Minelab dumping smaller dealers

    Thanks for all the support guys. Business as usual for me, just without new Minelab products.

    DD Leather Bunji Shaft Attachment

    On the GPZ I've always had my wraparound bungy mount on the middle shaft, and purposely don't tighten it up fully. It basically slides up the shaft and the top camlock just in front of the handle stops it in position. Seems the perfect spot for it, and being a little loose means I can slide the...

    DD in mono, Mono in DD on 4500

    A mono coil will work in DD switch position no problem. Remember, this switch used to be called the Rx switch and was labelled Normal, and E (enhance) when it first appeared on the GP extreme. The reason for this was because regardless of switch position the Tx was always the same, the left side...

    GPX 6000 notes- To dig or not to dig.

    Lightly skim....just want to hear that it's close to the ground. But it's dependant on terrain. On pine needles with no rocks, I'll literally slide it across the ground.

    GPX 6000 notes- To dig or not to dig.

    I wrote this a while ago but after many more hours behind the 6000, my thoughts are still the same. https://phasetechnical.com.au/blog/minelab-gpx6000-gold-detector-qa-with-nenad/

    Do skidplates reduce sensitivity?

    I think coils run quieter with skid plates on. Less impact on the actual base of the coil, and less likely to saturate in hot ground. In really bad ground, you can even get the coil further from the ground by adding a thin foam layer between your coil base and skid plate. You are effectively...

    AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    A note about the new pulse delay options. Using a 14x9" Advantage coil I have found that Pulse Delay 2 reduces the signal from small lead pellets by a lot. Difficult to measure, but I'd say it's about half. In Pulse Delay 3, the signal is gone entirely or almost gone (depending on size of...

    How limited is a 4500 compared to 6000

    My question is how does a 4500 being used by an experienced operator compare with a 6000? Just as good if not slightly better on larger chunky gold. Won't touch the 6 on very small bits. Finance doesn't allow me to update so have to make the most of what I have. Does signal enhancement and...

    AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    Have to admit it has taken me some time to adjust to pressing the Return/Freq button to access the menu. But now that I'm used to it, it makes perfect sense. Basically, press the button to go into the menu, press it again to jump out of the menu. A new user will not have any issues, as they...

    How hot can hot ground get?

    Something the size of a dog bowl can be detected at nearly 5 feet, so a small rusty gold pan or similar may be causing the response. If the material you are removing from the hole isn't responding, then it's a pretty good chance it is in fact something metallic.

    Sound booster for 4500

    I think we spoke on the phone today? SteelPhase Pro Series are a perfect match to the sP01.

    Sound booster for 4500

    If you are just scooting around looking for obvious targets, then external speakers are fine. If carefully working a known gold area, coil low and slow and really listening, you can't beat using headphones at least in my experience. I make the sP01 but I'll be honest and say with a good set of...

    Coil clean out

    Hi all, got way too many coils here. Can only use one at a time, so these need to find new homes so they can keep finding gold. All tested, and working great. Nugget Finder 15" Evo Spoked - $490 This is a brand new coil, marked factory seconds. I took it out of the bag to see if a mistake was...
