Battery holder a great problem.

[Lizard-Prince]

I was looking for a post on this subject but could not find it,so I felt I should mention my problems with the plastic holder for my GTI 2500.I find that the plastic is to weak to withstand the presure the AA batterys make on it.I tryed consultting various places here in the island of finding holders made of metal compleatly maybe of stainless steal to block salt corrotion.My searching made me call Garrett factory the idea of a metal holder was explained to me of having it drawbacks into the funtionability of the machine a stronger plastic holder was suggested to me they are working on this problem.I was going to be send another pair free of charge but I feel sorry for them as this drawback will make them have many users forced to buy this holders that can't stand a few months use.How many of us out there have this problem and can have any ideas up your sleaves.

I have the 1500 and have had the same trouble, like you said they mailed me a set free of charge,but I wonder how long until I have the same trouble all over again.

I use a charger for the Infinium, and just hook up my batteries in series for a charge. That way I don't have to remove them from the battery holder and the last longer.

I wish I could say the same I have had drawbacks on the AA rechargables and since I have to use alkalines and all my 6 detectors depends on these I only use charged packs on my DFX and V3 and slip in reserves for them as well. Thanks anyway on your sugestion
