I have an Ace 350 with 8.5x11 and 4.5 sniper coils with covers, also enviromental cover, for electronics. Only have about 30 hours on this set up. Question; When my AT Pro gets here, will I really have any need for the 350, if You dont use Pro mode they are basicaly the same? Grandson not interested, or it was his! Anybody come up with a good reason to keep it? Not opposed to having more than one machine but they are quite simalure no?

Nice to have a backup. Also a loaner should some one want to join you.

I thought about that relevantchair, I retired early, wife still has a few more years to go. I cant imagine doing this while being bothered with a job. I can go all day every day, if I want, might need a loaner for a friend......................for a cut of their finds lol

Save for a backup & also when asking permission to hunt Private properties ....offer it to the landowner to try while you detect his property......Just another avenue to get permission on private properties!

I think the idea as keeping it as a loaner is a great idea. I want to buy a second detector just for that.
