  1. I think Simon's "view from outside" is interesting  ,

    You never know when the unknown company will become the next big thing.

    We've all seen it happen (Just one EX: SpaceX ) I saw many examples in my years in pro audio...

    I blew the wad on the 800 , so I'm just watching ...but with interest , I'm not dead yet🤞

    But sure would have to think if someone combined the 800 and the 6000 over in the Lab of Mine . There would be more than a few pre orders .🤩

     

  2. That pointer rack looks pretty good ! 

    But because you told us you can't do woodwork . I'm a bit suspicious. 

    It matches all the woodwork I have done in my rig . So...

    I'll have to confiscate it as possible evidence of a theft of my build items................ 

    However , if you send it back , I'll  drop all charges !🤪

     

    The 9v battery shorting issue is an easy one to cure !

    Just hold the terminals to your tongue till the tingling stops and they should be good to go !

     

  3. Welcome to the forums Bob !

    I lived in Tucson in '82 , still miss it. Speedway+3rd 

    I too belong to the "lightweight detector club" !

    Better having pains digging in the dirt , than to be under the dirt with no pain !

    🤪 

     

     

  4. Arrrrrr welcome Aboard Cap'n Ed !

    Metal detectin' be a good hobby fer an old pirate and his wench.

    I oughtta knowwwwwwww !

     

    But I didn't knowwww hearin' aids even HAD bluetooth ?!

    So maybe they would connect ?

    If there are any metal detectin' clubs near ya , I'm sure someone would help you find out and then find the right detector ...meanwhile tell us more about the where and what of your detecting plans so we can make better suggestions on the model.

    (Of the 2 you mentioned I'd go with the 540 , but that's just me. ) Tell us more and we'll try ta zero yer sights on the right one ! Or maybe 2 ? 

      

  5. Welcome aboard Johnny Phoenix.  

    Pull your chair up closer to the campfire.

    I also use an 800 and it will find things below snow and ice ! ,,, (but I have to mark the spot to see what it is in a couple of months)........assume you have "found" the same lately.🙃 Any beaches nearby ?

         

     

     

     

  6.  

    I used to buy CRC at NAPA auto parts.

     

    The DEOXIT D5 cleaner comes in a F5 version also (Fader Lube) 

    Have used this stuff since the 80s , 

    There's also a "marine?" product called Fluid Film , it's made from sheep lanolin. All the boats in the fleet use it . (I have used it on both my detectors on screws and connectors.and have seen it successfully used to rust proof under vehicles too.))

  7.  Good to see people finally getting their D2s !

    It will be interesting as the reports come in...

    I was thinking about all the ice and sn ,, sn , sn , white devil some of us are waiting out...

    "What would get the white gone and the ground thawed " ,,,hmmmmmmmm?🤔

    !!!! Beep , bonfire  ,,,,,,,,,,beep , bonfire,,,,,,,beep , bonfire ,,,,,,,😉!
