I'm beginning to get annoyed with this detector, its been here for a month, first I could not use it because it was supplied with a bad battery and now I have this :
yesterday I noticed that my excl was behaving strangely when switching between disc/pinpoint, whenever I switched I got a strange noise asif there was bad contact inside, the tresh hold was getting interrupted for a fraction of a second.
today with a fully loaded battery I test it before my usual hunt and it appears to be fine.
when I was on the train to the coast I tested it again (was bored) and could not turn it on! after connecting and disconnecting the battery a few times I got it to work
once I arrived to the hunting area I tried for an hour or so to turn it on, no effect. I dont think its the battery this time, there is something far worse wrong with the detector.
too bad, because excl has found me over 2oz of gold already
anyway, the dealer is sending it for "repairs" on Monday, if I can find a solution before then, Id be very happy ) currently the excl is at dealers shop and I have no access to it.
Any tips are welcome!
