WoW what a machine!
Im at Detectival in the UK where Minelab launched the Equinox. This is my friend Harrys YouTube channel IDETECT. Hes a massive Garrett fan but after the few jokes about the equinox, he was extremely impressed and told me so off camera.
I've tried out the Minelab Equinox myself at Detectival, which is just a prototype and not the finished article yet. To me it looks like Minelab has out done everyone and even if it does look like the Quest machines, it's just looks only. The Quest is a toy compared to the Equinox and looks is all that it has.
I can see that brand loyalty maybe put to aside with this machine and even the hardcore Garrett guys and girls might be questioning themselves, do I want this incredible detector? I know it will be a big fat 'YES' to the thoughts!
I personally love my Nokta Impact but this is a major step up and now I'm thinking, will my Impact be a backup machine? I feel sick by saying that!
I know you have to walk over it to find it but this Equinox machine will find it.
Anyway I'm glad the parachute opened!
