My $100 ryobi cordless drills have lithium batteries. And the charger shuts them off when full. Can't see the Minelab batteries being any different.

I've noticed in my lifetime of construction. When the Radio is near the cordless battery charger. With no battery in the charger, the reception is fine. When a battery is inserted, and charging ,the reception gets fuzzy. That was one way I knew the batteries with worn or suspect charging ports were actually getting a charge. Sounds funny. But true.

Not too worried about the 4 legged animals while out in the wilderness. It is the 2 legged ones that I keep a eye out for.

Chinavasion Metal Detector
Sourdough Scott replied to Kenny's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
Joining a prospecting and Metal Detecting clubs, groups is also a great way to learn . -
JP's tips and advice. This tech paper and some of the manual make the most sense to me. I have totally wiped the memory slate clean of the GPX and have started reborn with the GPZ. With experience comes knowledge. I read,read,read. Try to absorb. Then apply it with hands on. Thank you Steve, JP and all with the helpful knowledge.

Where Do You Find Your Gold?
Sourdough Scott replied to Peteren's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
I like looking for old things. Like Fossils. I found this old fossil in my area named Klunker. I always ask him for advice. But I think he sends me on wild goose chases. -
Well. Going for dowsing rods. Lol. If you are ever at the Forks of the Salmon. Tell my friends at the store. Mark and Peggy hello.

You live in a beautiful area. Nice gold. Welcome aboard.

The Subject Of The GPZ 7000
Sourdough Scott replied to Jonathan Porter's topic in Minelab Metal Detectors
Im all for a JP locked thread. Where he can give us straight up insight and tips. Without the negativity and wingnuts crying for a wambulance. It is good to have constructive criticism. But it seems to go further than that at times.Thanks JP for all you do. -

I have some Danner hikers. Metal eyelets. Never bothered the GPX5000. Just wondering how they might react to the GPZ7000?

Where can one purchase metal free boots? And how many of you detectorists wear them?

Steve H. Speaking in Reno
Sourdough Scott replied to Sourdough Scott's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
How was the speaking engagement last night? A receptive audience? -
Norm, Did a internet search. I wish I could help more. But maybe this is a lead for you? http://www.hearingfrequencytest.com/ http://www.treasureproducts.com/index.html

Minelab is reading this. Us clients,need to have them on the red phone hotline. We need accessories that work well for us. That work for our bottom line as well as theirs. What works in the bush of Australia might not work so well in the mountains of Northern California. We need well designed product's for us.

Free updates only. A micro sd card slot would have been nice to transfer data from gps. We are in the age of less expensive technology. Except for minelab metal detectors.

Yep. Cavemen,indians,aborigines all hopped down to the corner BC Kwiki mart and loaded up on electrolytes and Gatorade. All comes down to common sense.
