Teknetics Minuteman, Liberator, And Patriot


Recommended Posts

Teknetics recently announced a new model line, the Ameriteks, discussed on an earlier thread. The three new models are rebranded versions of other First Texas (parent company of Bounty Hunter, Fisher, and Teknetics) models at lower prices. There are the Minuteman, Liberator, and Patriot. The Patriot in particular got my attention as a rebranded Fisher F70 with 7" x 11" DD coil for only $399 and free shipping (with promo code).

Teknetics has added these new models to their website and also appear to have gone to selling detectors direct from their website. The method is interesting. Right now you can get a discount and free shipping by using a promo code tied to certain dealers and representatives, who then presumably get a "referral fee" for the sale. As somebody who used to be in marketing and sales it is not a bad idea for Teknetics as they probably do not get much representation at a lot of dealers anyway. Since so many dealers these days are nothing more than drop shippers I have expected somebody to go factory direct eventually, and this is a step in that direction.

There is a nice ability to pick and compare models on the website now also. Click for larger version.
