  1. If the output voltage is the same as your 4wd 12v system, I think you will be OK. Check it with a multi meter before you roast your detector. Sometimes these solar panels have more voltage output, and can cause failure to batteries and computer chips. It's not so much the panel but the controller. Go slow and test first on something you don't have too much money invested in. Good Luck
  2. Great find my friend!!! Some of my best finds are from the blind Squirrel method. It's my favorite way to hunt HaHa
  3. I was wondering if you need any help? HaHa Judging by your hands your no stranger to hard work!!! Nice to see people still use them to make a living. That's some great gold my friend!!!
  4. Keepers coming, That's a nice bag o loot. Rings look great and the 42 quarter is a nice little find as well. good job.
  5. I'd welcome you anytime!!! GB As always thanks for your help on the finds.
  6. Found a rare undetected park this weekend (I'm assuming). It was started in the late 20's. The first day,Saturday was 36 degrees and windy. My buddy with the nox 800, found around $5.00 in clad and a 37 merc. and a 1940 WL 1/2 dollar. I hit nothing but clad about $4.00. Sunday was way colder, but a way better day for finds. My buddy again hit up on 3 merc's and a small silver ring. I redeemed myself by finding a 1918 merc a 1959 rosevelt and a 1964 Kennedy 1/2. I also found a lone buffie, (my first one in years), game galaxy token, $3.50 in clad and what I believe to be an Oldsmobile key ring ? Not sure of the era on this, but it has a serial # on the back. Seems to be made from brass. Very cool find I think. We stopped digging penny's within the first hour, this place was filthy with them. I'm looking forward to some more good finds here soon, because we only hunted an acre out of about 30.
  7. Looks good, but thinking your hand digger handle design would be great. If it is as tough as the hand digger I'm in !!!
  8. XP does make THE best shaft design on the planet. Then again I love the S shaft design, whether or not on a Tesoro, Nokta or the XP. It just seems like it's more comfortable than a straight shaft to me. I wish I could mod my MK to a collapsible shaft like the XP, But I'm 6'4 and most detectors even with an extension barely fit me. Gary has some great video's on YT and explains really well to the novice and seasoned detector how things work. I also like the fact that he has his pup running around with him.
  9. JCR, Hit the nail on the head, early 20's to 30's. If you can clean it up a little it still might work. They were not only used for automobiles but the large quantity of bicycles around that time frame. Nice job that's a cool find.
  10. Hello, I used the send inquiry tab at the bottom of the screen for the pin pointer holster. If that's not working you should let us know to use a specific email address. We do not have access to the address for the representative that handles that. That being said, please don't tell me to use the info@noktadetectors.com address, Because you do not reply to that one either. If there is another address please inform us all. Thanks
  11. Welcome Shep!!!! Glad your here and hope to see some of the gold finds. Your in good company with many great gold detectors here on this site.
  12. Great find Mitchel!!! I hope those stones are rough diamonds. That would sure make that ring one of a kind. I believe you are correct on the 18c, pretty much the same as 18k. most likely from somewhere in or around Switzerland. Next question is who would ruin a perfectly good pair of needle nose pliers? Ha Ha
  13. Glad your here, Looking forward to your input. As you know this place is great.
  14. I already have enough headphones, I cant tell you how many times i grabbed the wrong ones, only to find out when I got to my permission. I do have to agree that most factory units really do not fit your noggin, But Steve I do like the color red Ha Ha. The good news is, we can now color code to our machines.
  15. Good luck with that I'm still waiting for an email back for the pin pointer holster. That was almost 2 weeks ago. So don't bother with the inquiry email. You won't get an answer. They have a rather poor IT dept.
  16. Georgia, there is no 7x11 super fly, Only a 11x12 It weigh's 6 grams lighter than the NM 9'' concentric coil and about the same as the NM 7x11. This nel coil is super deep and has great separation. I only have been running this for a couple of weeks and have become very impressed.
  17. Great article Lunk, Now I know why I didn't get accepted into MIT. These guy's and gal's are on scale of genius that's of the charts. I love peanut butter and that smell analogy with stay with me every time I open a jar. Thanks
  18. I'm thinking your a lot high. I mean no disrespect by that but, Most people who would buy that stuff would probably be using it for craft items. Which leads me to this thought. I'm not sure if you have any woodworking skills, But maybe you could arrange some of the finds on a nice old barn board and sell it as a decoration/display. In the past I have made coffee tables and framed story boxes. This requires a little more skill to do but you can get much more money for those junk finds. Some ideas attached. Good Luck
  19. Nice ring!!! Pretty good haul for a few hours. I see the dreaded bobby pin on the bottom left, Man those things can sound really good. Good job.
  20. Georgia, ever seen a button like this?? I been looking for an answer for almost a year.
  21. JCR, I just did a quick experiment with the Tone break on my Multi Kruzer, WOW what a game changer!!! I dropped the tone break to 4 and it completely eliminated the nails and gave a great tone on good targets. This is going to open a bunch of old sites to new possibilities. That being said, The TID numbers are skewed and dropped about 25 points but the tone is still recognizable. My test was with 4 heavily rusted 18th century nails in a 12 inch square with a colonial copper and a Merc dime in the center, Running the Nel superfly coil. It hit each target solid at 8 inches and the nails were gone. I wish I would have known this sooner. THANKS for posting this little trick, It will really make a difference.
  22. I'll take those finds every hour. Oddly my two favorite things to dig are indian heads and musket balls. Nice recovery!!!!
  23. Welcome Rocky, Glad to see you stepped out from the sidelines. looking forward to some of your finds.
  24. Neat find, Now go get your percolator and whip up a cup of 1850 coffee. I think I would send you $20 if you actually drank it Ha Ha.
