From a dealers Q&A.   What does the term "50% more power", exactly mean? Does it mean the battery charge last longer, more detection depth or what? 

Looks like the answer is 50% more depth ... at least for our local dealers ... 😀 :

A Mongrel will cost you $2,499 in Australia.. More than twice the price of an Equinox 800.. It better be good! 

That's so sad news. It's not reasonable price,  I will never buy.

No one should take that dealer seriously.

Or no one should take ML seriously  ? ... 🙂

On dirait que la réponse est  50% plus de profondeur... du moins pour nos revendeurs locaux...  😀  :

MULTI IQ+:  Minelab’s revolutionary technology has 50% more power than traditional models and is the highest-powered simultaneous multi-frequency machine on the market.

 

This statement refers to the Multi-Frequency In Phase and Quadrature Synchronous Demodulation technology Minelab developed. Comparing single frequency VLF vs. Multi-IQ, Multi-IQ can provide a much greater target accuracy and better detecting performance, especially in difficult ground.

 

Statement from Dr Philip Wahrlich, Minelab's principal technology physicist, about a key difference of Multi-IQ compared to the demodulation taking place in conventional single frequency VLF detectors:

 

“Within the Multi-IQ engine, the receiver is both phase-locked and amplitude-normalized to the transmitted magnetic field – rather than the electrical voltage driving the transmitted field. This field can be altered by the mineralization in the soil (in both phase and amplitude), so if the receiver was only phased-locked to the driving voltage, this would result in inaccurate target IDs and a higher audible noise level. Locking the receiver to the actual transmitted field, across all frequencies simultaneously (by measuring the current through the coil) solves these issues, creating a very sensitive AND stable detector”.

 

 

This answer is the stock Treasure Talk discussion from 4 years ago for Multi-IQ on the Nox.  Sheds no light on what Multi-IQ+ brings to the table for the Mumblemouth.  SMH.  In other words, Minelab is not providing the information to the dealers to answer such questions.  Dealers are on their own...Good Luck trying to explain the premium pricing over Nox.

Maybe you need to ask one of the new Detect Squirts! They appear to be the experts of the month according to MLB. 🤣 

Too easy…. 🤭

Nothing new in that answer. It is a quote from the original article published by Minelab in 2018 “Multi IQ, What Is It” when the Equinox came out. The quote from Dr. Wahrlich is referring to Multi IQ……not the improved (?) Multi IQ+.

Eh, 4+ years is kind of a long time…

But they did deliver, finally.

Not for me any more.  Seems every time I turn around, another year has came and gone. I go to sleep on New Yrs eve and wake up and it's almost Christmas again.  Where does the time go?

 E-Trac was discontinued. Manticore at same price replaces it. CTX continues to be flagship machine.... for now.

The Edison light bulb in my head just went on... The Manticore is actually the Equi-Trac! 😲

I'm a little slow sometimes... 😏
