Infinium LS Users, I need input.

[bigscoop]

I don't hear to much about this machine but it seems like it should be a very good machine, right up there at the top, perhaps? In the market for a couple of machines and I'm considering the Infinium but want to get some "experienced user" input. Thanks!

It's a great machine. Just gotta get yourself use to it. I'm not the greatest M.D'er and I don't post any pictures because ya never know. But for salt water.....you bet'cha. I also love my AT Pro.

It would be hard to say something about the Infinium LS that have not already been said before somewhere.
Perhaps do a search in your area to see if someone would be willing give a demo and test.
If it wasn't for the distance you could have a go with mine for a day.

PS: There are a number of video on YouTube.

Hi bigscoop - i Bought my 1st. vlf in june of last year & while learning it a bit i did research for PI's & the money and went with the Inf. LS in December , January i went on a 5 week trip with it and used it Alot . Starting to know it a little. Super glad i went with some research & Gut instinct. it was designed at the time of the ML 3500. I love what i got for the $. There are 2 people here that replied to You (kind of giving you reference info) That Know this detector Very Well and in fact the final reason I chose it. i have No regrets in my decision. It has gotten me deeper than i needed to be in a couple of cases so far. Good Luck , ken~Digs

 

[Ken~Digs]

& what flatsix said, for Sure. So what happened bigscoop ?

I live in Southern California, we have some super hot ground, and the Infinium runs flawlessly, completely steady threshold, no wavering of the threshold unless there is a target under the coil, most PIs have very unstable thresholds, which can be annoying to listen to. Smallest gold I've dug is a .5 gram gold ring, it gets about 6 inches on it in an air test. Dig nickels at 15 inches, or so with a clear high-low tone. Whispers, which are just a waver in the threshold without a high-low or low-high tone, are painfully deep, unless it's a tiny item like a staple, which will give a whisper also at a few inches deep.

I wouldn't trade mine for any other PI... except maybe a GPX 5000, so I could sell it and buy another Infinium and spend the rest on booze.

Edit: I can't stress enough how nice it is it have a completely stable threshold, it makes hearing whispers easy as pie compared to an unstable threshold.

Putting the notion of a PI on hold for a while......

Putting the notion of a PI on hold for a while......

Hi scoop i tried that for a while (5 or 6 months) but when i was watching bigger nuggets had by PI users than the pickers i was hitting where VLF's had already combed thru , I did Much research & came to Infinium as the answer I wouldnt Trade it either like Nameless said. I can truly prospect Deep now So i put the mall coil on my L-St as companion & Pinpointer, works out great - couldn't be happier. In Fact , those 2 are the only 2 detectors i even want to use for the Disc features & auto Ground tracking & like the Tones. Ken~Digs.

Good Luck on whatever U do
