For me, beach hunter, it's a great addition. Deeper, better coverage, and great for big mass, like big rings. Very useful for my hunt style

Waiting to hear from you about M8 underwater. I dove once with it, and worked very well. In the next months I will be underwater very frequently... With Manticore, and Equinox 800 Seaghost as backup.

Love it

M15 sees bigger objectives deeper and stronger, but smaller/thinner less deep, compared to M11 and M8. What I have found is that M15 works better through black sand and on those micro accumulation of little objectives in the sand. In my beaches, M15 is incredible.

Yes, and it doesn't always detect it. I'm using, with M8, the Dankowski set of settings, and I've gotten some really incredible results; It's a laser. What happens is that after 2 hours my listening fatigue is brutal. With M15 I go exactly the opposite: on the quietest sensitivity setting, since with the M15 the depth is given by the physics of the coil itself. Generally I always hunt on the beach, and with each coil, I know that I am looking for a different type of objective, so I adapt to it, the circumstances and the objective I am pursuing.

I use overdrive with M8 (30 sensitivity). On M11 sometimes, but not very often. With the M15 never.

I regret not having bought Manticore EARLIER. On the beach, which is where I hunt 99%, I find it much superior to the Equinox, which I have used since 2019. I wish I had bought it sooner!

And would you share with us that Facebook post? 💔🙏

Nice ring!

Finally my M15 arrived. It's light for its size, and managed the Emi surprisingly better than I thought. It's super deep in the salty beaches. I have tested it only for an hour, and is soon to give a certain verdict, but I think could be interesting for very deep objectives, and for the summer at the beaches.

Thanks! And what about battery life? How long does it last? Maybe it's soon to know, but is an interesting data...

I bought mine, it Will arrive on Tuesday, so I will inform you. Thanks for your help!

Now that you have more time on your M15, are your thoughts similar as the first days, or you have another opinion? I'm thinking of getting one, and your help is appreciated! Thanks

I have mine for a month and a half. This little thing is incredible deep for it's size, and covers very nice compared to M11. I use it in mineralized salty beaches, beach low Conductores, prospecting audio, with a sensibility of 30. Really surprised with the outcomes.

Another answer on Tom's forum Hello Tom! I was detecting M8, LC on Friday and in very similar conditions to previous days. The beach is still open and continues to produce, although not at the same rate, since we have already removed the most detectable signals. Stable vdi 10 signal, about 30 cm (11" approx), a handmade, artisan ring. I have no idea how old it may be, but it is beautiful. I didn't go below 4 RS and could run 30 sens. Manticore is different.

If EMI is low, M11, Dankowski set-up, I'm sure you'll get it. Sure

I'm going to share with you what I reply to Tom at his forum: Thank you very much Tom for sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm with us. I have followed your advice, and little by little I have been mastering the machine, to the point that on beaches and places where with the Equinox 800 and 6" coil I could only execute sensitivity 23, with the Manticore and the M8 I have managed to reach levels sensitivity 30, and recovery speed 3, although a little chattering. I have worked a salt sand beach with medium low iron where it has removed some sand, and I have gone very slowly. The results have been, in general, coins from the 1950's to the 1990's, various old objects from the War that took place here in the 1930's, some current coins, and some gold. There have been 4 sessions: 1.- Manticore coil M11 2 hours to reconnoiter the terrain 2.- Manticore coil M8 3 hours 3.- Manticore coil M8 2 hours 4.- Manticore coil M8 3 hours The best thing is that I have noticed that I have reached the lower stable layer, where the objects are stable. M11 super deep, but I didn't finish getting the gold. M8 very deep, and the one that has made the difference by taking out the gold. On the 4 occasions I have gone with a partner who was using XP Deus 2 with a 9" coil. Manticore with M8 obtained the same depth and resolution as the Deus and 9" The gold has come out at 15" levels, except for the fine ring, which came out at around 9". I'm experiencing a hallucinogenic sidereal trip with the Manticore.

Congrats! Great ring, heavy, and spicy. And now, if you go for the 3erd day, what a pressing! 😄

And it's waterproof 🤩

Thanks Clive: the initial threw, were you described the Dankowski setting and you said: (...) . This brings in the machine’s filtering (bias) to assist in pushing the “random” part of the signal down into the iron tone. The noise of this iron tone takes some getting used to but the results are surprising. (...)

Clive, in this extra mode, I understand you that those extradeep targets will sound still ferrous? Is that correct? If yes, that means we have to dig every ferrous sound? Or is something special in that particular ferrous sounf targets that could tell us that are pushed by that "special" configuration?

Completely agree! Mine too

Thanks Lance! Now I also have both, and I prefer Seaghost. They are louder, and they are more pressure and steaky at the ears.

Are you in the 2 Oz.? 🫠

Thank you very much for so much valuable information! Knowing this data, I'm thinking doing a quick survey in a pool that has a lot of grass around it... I did a tasting a few years ago, and there are objects of all kinds since 50 years ago, and no one has detected it, it is a club private. Perhaps a cherry picking could be trimmed for gold rings, taking advantage of how well the Manticore can be optimized: - discriminate everything outside 18 to 54 and between 29 to 31 (Euro zone and pull tabs). - close the upper and lower ferrous limits to the minimum, leaving only the "cleanest". The land is free of iron, it is fill dirt and grass. Maybe I could do a test... It's a crazy idea, but it could work 🫣😅
