Hey Guys,

   Not a bad set up at all.  Surprises me it took Minelab 10 years to develop, when this could have been released with the GPX 4000 in all honestly.  They allowed Coiltek to make a fortune on the older Coiltek Pocket Rocket Li-Ion System and within the last 5 years Doc's Goldscreamer Power Pack System.  

Minelab leaves a lot of money on the table for other manufactures to develop products, but maybe this is their goal.  

I have sold either a Pocket Rocket or Goldscreamer Power Pack for approx. 95% of all the detectors I sold, let alone the ones I sell to other customers that purchased elsewhere.  I would only guess that is hundreds of thousands of dollars just on the battery system and pouch alone. 

Now when you think about all the aftermarket coils, signal enhancers, headphones, coil covers, battery systems, covers and such, you're probably in the ballpark of several million dollars.  

Either way, the customer will benefit as someone will make it.
