I still love mine, a good time to pick up another. 27 gold with the machine I got from Rick last year covered the price of both. Got to Love this Hobby, and the " Fisher Impulse AQ" ......... Come on Summer. Second picture is the battery I made for the New AQ, has a audio cut off. And a Excalibur battery...I was expecting 60 hours from it but looks closer to 100+ hours .. same batteries on the AQ last 5.5 hours.

I no longer make them... I might suggest hard wiring and specially for anyone diving.

Looks like a fun time! Nice saves on the Silver! Love finding it........ I'm guessing, did Jim get a chance with the AQ? I have to apologize to him, I was suppose to send him some settings...

No clue why they went with the regular ears on the 8 inch............... Both are fine with me, both work as they should with no problems here. The fact you get a lower rod with the 8 is a Big plus...disconnect the coil fitting from the main housing....flip the lever...pull out the rod .... set aside, line up the new coil and rod....slide in, close latch......connect coil fitting to the housing....DONE>>> how easy is that... 😍 The big coils ears stay the same on the New Production model, as far as I know.

Just my opinion...It has all the characteristic of a small coil. Depth is above normal for it's size but still shy of the big coil. If your hunting difficult water it's a much better choice. And I only use the AQ because it is Deep...So the bigger coil is my favorite. If I remember correct, on a buried yard stick nickel I could get it at 15 .. faint at 16.. all metal, which is very good for it's size And it does come with it's own rod so changing coils is very easy.

Same here Cuda, Sorry to hear.. and maybe the first I've heard with this issue. Maybe the headphones? ..the power cable?..or a leak? Leaks seem to work like that... "it was fine the last time but now...it no longer works" . Anyway, they have a great machine if it's working correct .... Quality control .... is the issue. Keep us informed,, Thanks

Nice looking band! You maybe able to get more for that one too. Anything religious seems to sell for a lot more then melt. I got a scoop almost like that one, a friend made for me several years ago. It was one of the first he made.. Diablo scoops. See if I can find a picture..

You are on Fire!! Amazing what happens when a little sand moves..👍

That's a Nice chunk of Gold!

Tony did I see one of your batteries with a LED volt meter? If so I was wondering how it held up.

Wow! Those are the right targets for finding gold. right down to the valve stem cover.

Good to see some AQ yellow posted! Good Luck and Hope to see more!

Amen to that! Come on summer. Now that is Love for sure!

One thing about the beach. anything is possible. Sadly it's stamped NET WT 1.00 OZ and only weights in at 24.5 grams I wonder if a real one would bend easy...being .9999 Good Luck, got to be a real .9999 out there some where..

Love the Red Stone! Always a nice addition to the collection!

That is a Nice chunk of 14k! Got to love when you find gold early in the hunt.. I'm not sure what the feeling is called... but it sure is satisfying. Funny, everytime a see a hand shot with gold I think of Casper..

Couple things, You Killed the Silver! Wow! 8 hours... You killed that too!! Wow!! I can bet you slept well... Crazy you found no gold, that is a lot of silver...Is there some type of pattern to where the coin lay..is there Iron in that mix..? Here, if I'm finding silver or brass .....gold is near..iron can be just in spots...... in that mix..like something broke up and now is within a few feet radius. Has to be gold soon! Good Luck!

Have a friend that loves his , still using after many years..A Good fresh drop machine Video from 10 years ago...

You get another one and your going to Jail for sure...😉

Two beauties Jim! Love seeing those heavies!

Very Nice, love the design.

Not completely true, if it is rolled gold or hand laid you can peel the gold off..which may not be much weight but there is enough gold to be saved that it can be sold as scrap. Which I have done before when sell junk gold...(Teeth, Earrings, grills, gold emblems, and gold peelings) Takes about 5 minutes. Now the base metal maybe worthless which I would call junk. On Gold filled and Gold plated items..(1/XX) ....don't even waste your time, they flake and do not peel off in one piece.

I have worked on the Brother of the Sovereign and experimented with several audio amps. They work on the Minelab Excalibur but only using All metal where you can seperate the Threshold from the volume. One of the better was DOC's Audio amp. See if I can pull up some old pictures. I did end of finding I could make a set of head phones that worked as good as the Amped up set and water proof.

That's a Nice chunk of Gold!! Any indication of the date.. Be interesting to see since your digging all of the WWll brass.

2 opps for head phones for those that may have a few sets of HP's.
