Now if they made 9 volts that would be cool.

Hi kac. There are a few Li-Ion available with micro usb port.

So, if you're after a white's detector manual they're now listed again at Garretts website.

Kudos to  Garrett.👏

WOW! 👀 What a unusual fantastic find. 👏 Congratulation.

That was one I had in mind to buy, but never did.

When I got this detector in 92 from Kellyco it was the top line of White’s . My cost was 725.00 and for the time that was a lot to pay for a detector.

 Well this morning I got it out and put batteries in it and it came alive just like it did back in 92 . I ran soon test to see if everything is still working and at the same time I’m thinking why I put this aside.

 I’ve said this in the past those who had the Eagle and wanted to up grade to the Eagle ll White’s would. I’m not sure of the cost but it was around a 125.00 . I believe this was the only time White’s offered doing that.

 I have the stock coil that came with it but right away ordered the small coil that has great depth for the size.

 I don’t know if kellyco person that’s on here remember that Kellyco came out with a coil for the Eagle ll . I got the coil and I didn’t find it was any better that the stock 9 inch coil.

 Here’s some pictures that will take you back in time to another great day in detectors.

Hi Chuck.

I think that investment was worth it, as it still works. Yes, they did a great job on their detectors, built like a tank.

What's the "air" button for?

 

Nevermind - I found the manual online.  It is a prompt to trigger the start of the ground balance sequence by telling the detector the coil is off the ground and in the air and ready to be moved towards the ground for the GB setting.

Hello. From the manual: Air - Prepares the instrument to ground balance.

Think it is like the XLT and DFX do, first ist holding the loop to waist level and air balance, then put the coil to the ground and ground balance. All done without any metal near the coil.

WOW!! Bottle opener on both sides.👀 That's incredible.

The 800 is a lot of more detector, and it's always nice to have some more power than is needed at the moment. And I won't miss bluetooth anymore. (Very nice feature!)

Hello Luca.

This chart is very incomplete about the settings. I don't have a clue about the MXT-Pro in Relic mode but I really like the relic mode on my Std.-MXT. My suggestion about the V3i would be to start in relic mode and have mixed mode switched on (stereo if you like). From that point you have to tweak the machine to what you like. Not having a V3i and a MXT-Pro this is all advice I can give. I know there are so many options into the menue you really can make it to act like the MXT-Pro. (assigning tones to VDI-ranges and so on...)

But I think there will be more than one user who has done this and may be he/she will chime in and share.

All my best and good Luck.

Hello Againstmywill. May be it is one of those, just older? --> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock-climbing_equipment#/media/File:Belaying8.jpg

Hello Dirk. Don't have a clue about the Bandido but may be this will help... -->bandidomanual.pdf

I found on the forum Geotech1 ... mod for the Whites detector ..V3i

I've been looking for undisclosed V3i easter  eggs, so far I know of 4.
1. Hold down all 4 arrows, plays tune "Three Blind Mice"
2. "easter egg" program
3. "Golden  egg " program
4. "Rotten  egg" program

 

According to everything on the old Whites forum, there was also a mod for the DFX detector.

Hello El Nino77 - yes, I also read somewhere there is a mod for the DFX, but no one has a key to it. So my idea is it is a fairytale. Thanks a lot for your reply.

It sounds interesting but must admit i cannot see the logic behind it or would want to give it a try on my DFX,had mine for 17 years and never had the urge to play a stupid tune on it 🙂

Hello RickUK - Now that White's had closed the doors and informations will become rare I had in mind this will be the right time to ask about. And wouldn't it be cool to spot an easter egg on Christmas?😉

On 12/21/2020 at 11:30 AM, Sven1 said:

Why would tunes like that even be programmed into a detector? Serves no purpose................

Hello Sven - It is in the nature of a programmer to build in a secret into the code (easter egg). It is not always a tune, it can be everything. (may be only a special string-row) - Most programmers do have a signature in their work.

Hope you all will have a very Merry Chistmas.🎁🎄☃️🎅🤶

May be this will help... --> https://www.mouser.de/manufacturer/amphenol/

Is there something for the DFX as there is for the XLT? The XLT will play a tune if the correct sequence of keypads is pressed. Tried this sequence for the DFX but nothing. May be someone can pour some light on this secret.

Any help is appreciated.

You won't regret it.

Thanks for the clarification, Monte. That is a really helpful information. BY the way, which version do you prefer?

Thank you so much, El Nino77. Wow. Using the 14 kHz Eclipse series coils on the XLT would be a great improvement. Is there a chance that you do a schematic and posting it here?

Another post about the software # I found a few minutes ago using google search. -->

So my understanding of the written is, version 1.0 was build for the Eagle Spectrum and the XLT got the 1.1 version. Thanks for all the help.

Hello.

I just did a forum search but this ended up with a useless result. My question for the long time White's users is, is there more than one software version for the XLT Spectrum E-Series detector? Just read somewhere in the net there was a 1.0 and a 1.1 version. Is this correct?

This forum is not the correct place for counterfeit products I think. 👎

Any attempt to go to the https://www.whiteselectronics.com/ website is now redirected to the Garrett website. We do not know if Garrett will maintain White's as a separate product lineup, but this is a tiny bit of evidence they may not. On the other hand, it may simply be that a redesign of the White's website is underway. But for now, the old White's website is gone.

And with that all the MANUALS. Realized that a few moments ago. Thank the Lord I downloaded them ALL when the end was there by the letter from Mr. Kenneth White.

"AT Pro Pointer = TRX"

I did an Air test last night.  The TRX  found a 1 grain piece of gold 1/2" from the tip.  The Carrot wouldn't find it at all!

The TRX is a very superb piece of high tech.

I finished my channel's intro footage, squeezing some of the last finds in less than two minutes...

Hope you enjoy the atmosphere 🙃.

Will be difficult to keep it updated constantly with all the work I'm next to start on dryland for water sessions improvement, but keep an eye on my diary now and then🔥

https://youtu.be/1kyGlM9-_do

Nice intro, I like it. Well done.

Stay safe & healthy.

Those are great news. So, may be there will be a Apex with signagraph in the future...🙄

Wishing them (Garrett & White's) all the best for their future.👍

  Locator ... I'm glad you like 7 "Ultimate"👍, this coil really has "Power" ..... if you can run it on your terrain on Spectra V3 on Rx Gain 8-9  / DS 93 - with TX Bost ON .... you will have a strongly optimal performance of this coil..at 3F multifrequency ..

 

... I waited myself for this type of coil for Spectra for several years .. because there was this dimension/weight  the DD coil was missing ...

Hello El Nino77. There is only the VX3 in the arsenal so TX Boost is no option. The 7inch runs a lot deeper than the 6x10D did and yes, it's running in 3 Frequency mode. If deeptech had a 9"DD Ultimate for the Spectra I'd buy it no doubt.

I have a brand new 7" and 13" Ultimate for my MXT Pro! I  just haven't got to try them  out yet! I'm still playing with another 13" on my G2+!!👍👍

Hello Joe D. Give the 7inch a try on the MXT Pro. Think you'll be amazed, too.

May be I can do some detecting tomorrow...
