From what I hear, the etrac gets some awesome depth on coins.

With your currency exchange rate, you should be able to get yourself a Spectra V3i by whites. If your seriously going to spend that kind of money, might as buy easily one of the best machines on the market. Remember, once you buy, your pretty much stuck mate. If you go to the kellyco website, it will allow you to do a side by side comparison of detectors. This should help. Good Luck

Welcome to Tnet! I would choose between the E-trac and the V3i...........in fact, I did!

a Fisher F75 LTD is a sweet detector, goes deep and with a Sun Ray probe is a heck of a pair check them out, you wont be disappointed!

We'll let you be the guinea pig on the off brands. Let us know how it works out compared to a known detector.

leaning towards etrac mainly for ease of use guess what about XP DEUS?? i seen few videos on youtube of one of the guys getting some good finds with it. anyone have expirience in using this and how would it compare to the etrac? or at pro? would it be in between? or just as good as E trac

Hi Poida84,

I assume you live outside the USA, if you let me know where you live I can provide some options for you. Kellyco provides free shipping on Metal Detectors in the USA, and depending on your country, and what you order, and how quickly you want it shipped. But usually we are very competitive on overseas shipping rates.
Try not to order oversize scoops as these can be very expensive to ship internationally.

Let me know if I can help.

I own the F75 and it does very well. The only other machine I would buy right now would be a minelab. The F75 is noisy, and tuning it can be a fine hair. But it will kick butt as I do well with it anywhere I go. My next purchase will be a minelab once I can afford it. Good luck.

yeh my 3 main decisions atm is F75 LTD E-trac and XP dues...

from what i read F75LTD can match E-trac in most areas but when it comes to trashy areas E-Trac seems to do a lot better job when setup right.
thats if i dont take the depth into consideration F75 seems to do better with gold ear rings and smaller rings. but E trac a lot better on silver...

from my area bieng crap load of minerals and trashy areas of iron.. prob do E-trac like everyone says. thats where XP dues comes in im completely in the dark on that.. some say its way better but others say if you learn the E trac inside out thats another story LOL so im not sure out of those two i prob would fork out more if you guys tell me to get XP or id stay with E trac if you guys tell me that hahaha decisions decisions.

 

[cudamark]

Isn't Minelab an Aussie company? You should be able to find those locally. It would be a no brainer for me.

 

[MikeO]

Definitely purchase a Minelab product.

 

[Sandman]

Forget the Garrett's for where your going to hunt. You'd be better served by the Etrac or the White's V3i with the Etrac as my first choice.

 

[mreese1849]

I have a minelab and I love it. I have a se pro but it is still going to take forever to learn inside and out lol Cant imagine how long it would take but you will probably never grow out of it.
