Hello all! Looking to finally upgrade my Dad’s metal detector (he’s had a White’s one since I was about 7... I’m 32 now). I’m tired of having to carry extra battery packs around when we metal detect together.
I looked around and saw the Minelab Equinox 600. It’s a little more than my brother and I wanted to spend for Father’s Day, but we’re not opposed if it’s worth it!
We metal detect exclusively on our family property which is woods/mountains and fields. No beach or water detecting if that makes a difference. The land has been in our family since the 1700s, so we’re mainly digging up the site of an old home. We’ve been detecting it for 25 years and it’s crazy we’re still finding new things every time!
We really want a detector that’s good and user friendly and maybe can help us not dig up 100s of old nails haha (wishful thinking I’m sure) My Dad in 25 years never really learned all the meanings of the numbers on his White’s one or even the purpose of different settings. So, I’m hoping for a good detector that would be easy to learn the different settings and such.
Would y’all recommend the Minelab Equinox 600 for what we do?
Thanks in advance. Metal detecting is our big father/daughter bonding thing and I want to make sure I get him one we can use and enjoy for another 25 years together.showbox speed test
