  1. Well guys that's exactly what I did, I gave my background and I explained in the first paragraph my history with detecting. I live no where near a "gold field". I do, however use the GPX for relic hunting, I'm a member of 6 other detecting forums so I've never felt compelled to join a "prospecting" forum. But I know the GPX is the king of the gold machines and I figured you fellows have the same issues that we do in the relic hunting world with the GPX and bad weather. Sorry if I've offended some of you, I'm on Findmall, Treasurenet, Treasure Depot,Just Go Detecting, FreindlyMetal Detecting Forums, Dankowskidetecting and so on and so on, it's not like I'm a snake oil salesman just passing through town. Agree completely " to each their own", this is a revolutionary product for the GPX, I know the peace of mind I got having it in place on my machine so if the weather turns sour a downpour isn't going to kill a $4000 machine. I was always nervous with a zippered freezer bag jerry rigged to it and couldn't focus on detecting when there was a threat of rain. I'm sure "some" of you can relate, if you do and you're interested then email me. Thanks.
  2. First, let me say I am new to this forum and this is actually my first post. I've been detecting for 15 years. I started as a coin hunter and while I still enjoy hunting for old silver and copper coins, I've evolved into more of a Relic hunter and water hunter. Now I don't have any gold fields near me, but I do own the GPX 4800 for Civil War relic hunting in extremely mineralized soil in Northern Virginia. It's main weakness, to me, is its vulnerability to rain and moisture. So after the first few relic hunts and dealing with inclement weather and bagging our GPX's my good friend and hunting partner and myself knew there had to be a better way. We discussed it and kicked around ideas on one of our 5+ hour rides home after a hunt. We both decided to come up with designs and then we would move forward. After a month, we looked at each others ideas and his was clearly the superior design, so we assembled them and have used them for 2 years in all kinds of inclement weather. They have worked flawlessly. See the Video for details, but they protect against rain, snow, mud, dirt and dust and are field deployable in less than 1 minute. They stay on your machine all the time and can be deployed or rolled up out of the way. They are super light weight and do not add any noticeable weight to the machine. They work with the Goldscreamer set up as well as the stock battery when it's used in a pouch on the side of the GPX. Please watch the video for details. Since these have worked so well, we have decided to make these for sale. The price is $132.99 for the Goldscreamer setup and $142.99 for the stock battery setup and shipping is $9.99 in the ConUs. Don't trust a $4000 detector to a .50 cent freezer bag. The best part about these is you put it on 1 time then you never have to fool with it again, it will be there when you need it, no matter what the forecast or what weather actually occurs. You can email orders to sjstewartkfd@yahoo.com put GPX WRS Order in the subject line and I will contact you about payment. Orders will be filled only when payment is received. A good chunk of the cost is materials. You can see the video here:
