When VLF discrimination is needed, when VLF depth is needed, when VLF speed is needed. At this moment in time. I will only hunt with Minelab Manticore. Dang it... I had myself all settled in for a long winters wait. Had the excitement all tamped down. Now you go and get me all anxious again. - Dave 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordiedan Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Minelab teaser for 1st December just added to their Facebook page 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSPR Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 For Americans, that date is December 1, 2022, not January 12. Along with this non-descript video they stated, "On 1.12.22 you’ll find out why it’s better the second time around." No mention of the Manticore and unsure what they are referring to as the second time around unless they are comparing it to the Nox. Anyway, we can probably take this as a December 1st release of the Manticore. Yeeeeeeeaaaaahhhhhh!!!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordiedan Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I've set the cash aside so I'm pretty much at the "Shut up and take my money" stage in my Manticore adventure 😄 Was out with the Nox at the weekend again and it's still a wonderful machine, picked up some tiny targets even in amongst the trash but would really benefit from a bit of better 'what's under the coil?' type discrimination. I'm hoping the Manticore can help with that (and if it doesn't then it should be an easy flip to sell on and I'll go back to ol' faithful as if nothing ever happened 😛 ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luis Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Could it be that there are two manticore models just like the Equinox 600 and 800? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsb Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Or their putting the EQ in the manticore pod? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it for two reasons. 1. There was only one model revealed at the trade shows. and 2. Saying, "....it’s better the second time around." implies they are referring to something already out in the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSPR Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 There is still no manual posted on the Manticore page. I'm wondering if this has anything to do with calling the screen plot "Target Trace." Since it isn't an actual trace of the target, as has been pointed out by several on this forum, could they not want to put out such information until it is released? The reason being that they don't want the manual immediately disputing what they have been saying about Target Trace before it is released.

Geordiedan Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 One of the UK dealers has been quoted saying that's not the Manticore release, but a separate announcement from Minelab 😮 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
