Gold Grabber mini

Anyone have one? Thoughts? I am thinking of purchasing it.

I have been thinking of getting one of these too, so I can run it from a battery/bilge pump. It looks lightweight enough to carry around. I don't work with more than 2 other people at a time, so it would not get overloaded.

I am interested in how well they hold up over time.

the gold grabber mini is a nice piece of mining eq. it works very well it is light wight fore if u need to back pack it in to remote locations.
i have personally used this system.is well made and will last u forever the same company that makes this eq also make the gold grabber dredges with the flared sluice this to is a awesome unit i have had my unit going on 3yrs i have found a lot of gold with this dredge and have never had eny problems with the unit. so with that said if u decide to buy this mini gold grabber i think u will like it very much.

Exactly why I was looking at it. Backpacking and it looked light enough to haul without much trouble and looks like it may do the job.

I ended up buying a Gold Cube (http://www.goldcube.net/) instead. I think either the Gold Cube or Gold Grabber might be a good solution for the fine gold I am trying to extract.

Now, I need to find some punch plate with 1/8 inch holes so I can extend the end of my sluice (Wolff Trapp) so that it can feed the Gold Cube. We lost a lot of fines at Derry Ranch this season - I don't want to repeat that problem again.

Its small and portable and comes with a 12V water pump. I have plenty of 55 amp 12V Gell batteries (I replace them every 2 years in my wifes mobility wheelchair and scooter - they may be only 80% capacity, but will drive a bilge pump all day on a charge). I can also run it as a recirculator if need be.
