Looking for Lost Hearing Aid with #312 Battery

[Keachie]

I inadvertently lost a hearing aid when popping off a helmet with ear muffs while on my tractor, on my land. I looked in the general vicinity and never found it. I am wondering what level of metal detector it would take to find it. It was in in the ear aid, so it is about 1/2 inch long and 3/8th inch in diameter, and has very tiny electronics, probably not much mass, but it does have a #312 battery in it. As I own the property and nobody goes to this aream I'm sure it is still there, unless some animal ran off with it. As there is gold on the property (part of the North San Juan Diggings in the Northern Mines area of California) I've been thinking of getting a detector anyways.

Any suggestions?

A #312 battery is about 1/4 inch indiameter and 1/8th inch thick.

Surely somebody in this forum has a hearing aid. Please see if your detector can pick it up. Tell me which detector, from how far away. I'm specially interested in the Minelab Eureka Gold. Thanks, Doug

my compass found my mom's, freshly planted, at 4". soil dry. better when damp. air tested at 7-8''. most any machine should find it but spend a few bucks and you will be happy! if you didn't live 3000 miles away, i would help. heck, my wife is from san diego and wants to visit! please get a machine and join us. too much fun!
