I hope that the Legend user's manual will include a a spreadsheet page showing all the factory default settings like they did with the Impact. AND detailed descriptions of each mode's characteristics.

^^^^THIS!!!^^^

Now I realize why the manual is taking so long in translation! I hope they get it perfect without definition of words issues. The Impact manual is great without any issues. Waiting for this machine.......

Deus II on pre-order too but I'm on the second wave order list.....

You mean like the huge battery that the Equinox uses? It’s not like NM has not done this spare battery thing before. You can type caps all you want, but the main battery is built into the pod, and the spare battery clips under the arm, both providing additional running time, and charging the detector at the same time. You can do same with a equinox and Apex. None of this is news.

I'm thinking a lot is getting lost in language translation. Same thing with my Impact. People got confused with their wording "Multi Frequency" which it is but NOT SMF like CTX, Deus II and Legend. One at a time selectable. They should have called it a "Backup" battery then? I always carry Spare batteries with all my machines that run on AA's.  Out with the old and in with the new. I can't wait for my Legend to come in....

Just so I can understand if this is what you are saying....... the main battery and replaceable spare battery both mount underneath the arm cuff. Did I get that right?  

Why is only one battery and charger shown in what is included in the box and with the battery and charger pictured being labeled a "spare". No other battery is shown especially the non "spare" battery.

From their wording, the "SPARE" battery comes with another charger. The detector comes with its own charger.

"Replaceable" MEANS, take off old one and "REPLACE" with "SPARE". Don't forget, SMF machines EAT batteries! Nokta worded it "REPLACEABLE". Dilek even said battery life depends on mode chosen. This machine needs a huge battery.

You do not have to remove the factory sealed Lipo battery. The auxiliary battery is add on for backup. I have the same set up on my Anfibio. Very handy.

On Nokta's site it states that it is a "Replaceable Spare Battery". This means, out with the old, in with the new. It is not a "Backup"battery. The Legend is totally different than the Anfibio and Simplex. Different tech altogether.

The backup battery is installed directly under the arm cuff. One can see the design difference underneath the Simplex arm cuff and the Legend arm cuff in the latest photos of the Legend.

It's not a "Backup" battery, it's a "Spare" battery! It mounts under the cuff in place of the regular battery which you have to remove. FWIW.

I have the Nokta Impact which I was one of the first to receive and the Garret AT Max. I will never part with either. I am adding the Legend to my quiver.
