Minelab xterra, Whites DFX, Notka Makro Simplex. Folks the price don’t mean everything, the question is are you willing to put in the time to learn the machine, experience will pay off I guarantee it.

Well its been talked about before, but this is for all of you that actually purchased this machine, are you glad you bought it, disappointed in the electronics, is it over hyped. Give me the low down its price is holding steady , yes its the newest model so I guess it would. Well I will let you experts give me your opinion before I make the purchase myself, good holidays friends

I agree with Vic.

Love mine. Would never sell. Versitile setup. Great coil selection. Definite keeper in my stable.

It's a battery hog and it gets heavy at the end of a long hunt. Those are my complaints.

Hello 49er12,

The others are right about the learning curve, weight and battery run time. I have solved two of the three complaints; use a sling for weight and purchased an RnB battery pack. The learning curve will take time, but will come time.

Regards,

Doc
