I have a Eureka gold and seeking offers...
The battery no longer holds charge (battery charges to about 13.1V but voltage drops to around 8 volts when detector turned on.
As a result, the unit is very 'chaotic' sounding when turned on and does not settle down.
Also, the loudspeaker no longer works - I suspect it could be the headphone jack, but the speaker could be faulty. It works via the headphone outlet.
I cannot guarantee it will work correctly if battery is replaced, though I would be surprised if it didn't.
I no longer have a plug pack for charging the battery and I need the car charger I have - for my uhf handhelds.
What do you think it’s worth?
Make me an offer.
Located in Sydney.
