Thanks Steve, it is great to have experienced people's insight. I appreciate greatly. I'll keep on gathering more info. Good luck to all. Happy holidays.

Dear Steve, i did check your comments on Sajuu's question and posts. it was great guidance and really shows the years of experience and wisdom, thank for putting the link. I did have some experience with White's XLT and spectrum but i didn't know about TM808. it was interesting. My target is chests, cashes and hoards, therefor I am looking for a device that can detect big objects (5 Gal.) in depth (around 10 feet). Also, I am big fan of pulse induction units and their reliability. Based on these do you have a robust and reliable unit in mind? Appreciate your input and help. Good luck to all.

Thank you Steve for your response and warm welcome. I get a good vibe from this forum. And, thank you El Nino, video was great help, field test of unit is good insight, and the guy, as you said, knows stuff. mater of fact, I was thinking to use two 8m (26 ft) cable loop of Pulse Star, and join them with a Y connector over the 2m (80") frame to reach max depth. I did this with Lorenz universal cables. But, I don't know in this unit i will yield any good and reasonable results. I'm afraid that Pulse star would not work properly. I would like to have you guys opinion on the subject. thank a lot.

Hi everybody, this is Dave, I've been dabbling in metal detecting about 8 years now. Most of my experience is with PI units specially Lorenz (X6 and older models) for relic objects. Unfortunately, my X6 got serious damage and it is useless now. I am considering a Pulse Star II pro unit; my needs are for a PI unit that can detect a 25*25 cm (9inch by 9inch) object in the range of 2.5 m to 3 m (8 to 10 feet). Because of limited budget (under 3000$), and technical features I did choose Pulse Star ii Pro, but I could not find enough reviews on the unit. It would be great help if I can have your experience and feedback on it. Is it reliable? Robust? Can it meet my expectations (8 to 10 feet depth)? Also, do you suggest another PI unit in same budget? Appreciate your help very much. Good luck for you all.
