from what i read about minelab excalibur is plenty of battery problems........buying new battery packs and having to charge the pack every day! naaaa not for me...i get plenty of life out of the batteries in my BHID. just load up and go! and turn on and go! very easy / very simple and i find good stuff too..well the past few months anyways since i`ve been going at night instead of mornings.
well happy hunting everyone!

Change battery pack every day not really an issue, I usually got about 9 to 12 hours out of a battery back before changing or recharging, I don't wait till it is dead, and I always carry the AA battey pod with me as emergency spare. Maybe it is because of the 27 freq that it uses power faster, I don't know. I know the BHID has only 2 freqs.
The Excal uses a DD coil (more coverage), while the beachhunter uses a concentric coil, where the search field narrows with depth. I had a beach hunter and I liked it, but mine leaked twice in the battery compartment while under warranty and I got tired of that and traded it in on a ML Sovereign GT with a WOT coil.
The fact the Minelabs null on iron is a nice advantage for me...............
Indasurf said:Quite a while back there was a White's recall on a batch of defective BHIDs that had gasket issues.
This was on the original BHID models with the 9.5 coils. An updated gasket was then used on the rest of the original BHIDs coming out of the factory.
The new Beach Hunter 300 doesn't have that gasket issue. I have no problems GBing my 300 and most of the time it's very smooth.
In the rare occasion (for me) if I'm in a difficult area I just leave it in the middle setting digging very deep down signals.

There was a post on this topic somewhere on t-net already with other comments if you can find it.
