  1. Hello to all i decided to upgrade a bit my case for the wireless transmitter on my Tarsacci it was previously store at the back of the control box stuck with some velcro,inside a tiny pouch/zip bag

    So this is what i did.

    I took a 18650 case holder,melted with a solder the edge to pass the cable.

    I found a piece of rubber with some sticky tape on it and sculpted it with a knife.I think a chair sticky slider could but i didnt have any.This to be able to switch on and off in the box

    Managed to squeeze the excess of wire behind in the box.

     

    Tested all working

     

    It is dust proof and probably splash proof,not 100% shower proof but working on it

     

    Enjoy

  2. Hello to all in the name of research and other experimentations i bought a Golden Mask 4WD with 3 coils.

     

    I m not interested in any of the coils sold with the machine but i got my eyes on a 5" seems super sensitive ,i bought it from the Thames river,and hopefully it will bring me some goodies it is coming with charger ,wireless headphones and the superb telescopic stem and 2 covers(battery and control box) .Price including delivery £320 hopefully if it doesnt fit my need it will be relisted on the bay of thieves.....

    Coils are 12" and 9" and a SEF 12"X10"

     

    Here is the video who made it click the buy it now button:

  3. Hello to all ,went back to the beach where i found the Gold ring 2 days ago i tried hard but nothing good came out except on this 2 Oz weight probably victoria 100m from the beach towards the sea.........what was it doing here not sure maybe from a fisherman scale......

    Anyway as the finds were scarce i decided to push the MDT to the limit of stability so i crank up the sensitivity did another GB just in case

    So :

    AM

    9khz

    sens 9

    Threshold -1

    ST26

    GB535 

    So while it is chatty ,you will realise that the ID suffer variations on a non round target fluctuate a lot,BUT the depth is actually unreal on medium size targets like fishing weight i think 45 cm is the norm.I lll be interested to see what happen when you hit a silver or gold ring.......bear in mind it is also less fun as you got more ghost signals.

    Anyway was worth trying

  4. Hello to all ,

     

    And again i went to the same beach secluded where nothing happen,the road potholes have been filed partially meaning you can go up to 9.5mph😂😂

     

    I started at 7.30 once i found the right spot bullets and shrapnells.... silver ring came up then more of the deep debris from 

    ww2 and then BINGO this nice 9ct ring maybe at 30/35cm. i finally gave up at 10.30 may go back tomorrow

  6. Hello to all ,went to a secluded beach today,just to make sure i knew how to detect again it wasnt warm but sunny,and my fishing jacket kept me nice and toasty.As i got the luxury to have 3 times more digging tools than arms,i choose a spade for a change over a scoop.A cheap spade i bought on a road trip a while back when my old one broke and i just fitted a new shaft which i oiled with linseed oil 3 times.Anyway a lot of walking and gridding,the nox is my to go machine when i am back after a while especially with those long lockdown period.

     

    Lots of coast fight remains as you can tell fro the pictures a nice brass cross alas.......and a 1919 coin were the oldest find.

     

    Funny enough the cross bare the name of Saint Anthony of Padua ,which is the saint to pray to when something is lost......................well i found it.:minelab:

     

    Will try to go out tomorrow,to see if i can find more bullets

     

     

    Enjoy

  7. Interesting to see the reactions i have to say...........dont also forget that :fisher: does not only target YOU the US user,the world is a big place,with some places with volcanic sand where the Impulse seems to be the one and only to pick the goodies at deep depth.

    What will be a success????1000,3000,5000 Units sold????

     

    Maybe Fisher should have offer their proto version Worldwide because as i said above the world is a big place and Detectorist/Beachcombers are a bit more spread out that when the 1266X came out.....

  8. To be honest WELL DONE, i met Alain few times and this guy is a perfectionist, i said it before and i will say it again.

    Maybe thats why we havent heard about a new machine yet,because it aint ready............for him!

    At that price difference I would buy it abroad, have the dealer training on the goldfields, have a bit of a holiday finding gold. Then fly back via Spain.

    Voila

    And claim the VAT before flying back to the UK :minelab: i forgot how much you could claim back when i went OZ

    Jeez all this talk about espresso coffee while roughing it... I’ll have to invest in a decent plunger cup, I won’t have the power to run a small espresso machine.

    Check my link on a gas cooker it is very close to excellence 😀😀😀😀.

    We need a new sub forum "Coffee lovers"

     

    Gonna have mine and go for a walk on the beqch as it is still forbidden to detect see ya all later

    I`ve a DeLonghi coffee machine that uses fresh crushed coffee beans it uses the full 2000w which is too much for the AGMs thus start donk to give batteries a kick for the 5minutes or so the coffee machine does its thing, but I have a Makita coming which is not a high pressure machine like the DeLonghi it only draws 550 w but still uses freshly crushed coffee beans, so if the coffee is OK from it I`ll carry it about as is much more rugged. Blends 1 to 42 buh no idea but must`ve been failures  MT

    A Barista at heart!!!!!!
