nickelNdimed Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Any updates? I recall one about headphones and one about Iron Bias. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB_Amateur Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Of course Steve H. has the answer but as it's been a day since you asked I'll put in my place-holder answers. 1) Polls here have a time limit for answering. Posts in general can be kept or deleted over time as their relevance waxes or wanes. 2) My recollection of the headphone poll is that about 50% use Bluetooth exclusively, 10% don't use wireless, and the remaining 40% use either the built-in (WM08) wireless exclusively or some combination of that plus other options. 3) I really don't remember the results of the Iron Bias poll, and can't recall the questions, either. 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiftaaft Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Not sure if this helps, but the poll threads you referenced have the results at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickelNdimed Posted April 22, 2021 Author Share Posted April 22, 2021 Yeah, I saw the poll results and can find those. That doesn’t really tell me much other than preference of others. My question was more related to his statements about this being used for something... And maybe something about it benefiting us or something like that. Just curious what the something was? Input for development of next gen or other competitor? Software update? Someone writing another book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I keep telling people the engineers follow this forum. It was a request from an engineer to gather data for future detector development. The brand should be obvious. Equinox was not developed in a vacuum, but basically built to order from forum comments about what people want. When will you see results? Maybe in the next Minelab detector. Or maybe not. It’s just research. Detectors take 3-5 years to develop, so it’s not like poll over, new detector next day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or will that cost put them over the edge? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
