Very Strange to say the least. I just copied this from the Tesoro Metal Detectors facebook page. That quote was posted on Feb 10th 2019. I did try and call them but it goes to an answering machine. I didn't leave a message.

There website is still up. http://www.tesoro.com/ I read on facebook that people were still getting their detectors repaired thru Tesoro. You may want to try and call them.

I think the best part of the show is the week, week and half prior in the hotels and tents along the I-10.

Just go commando. Your wedding vegetables will thank you.

You couldn't see half of it in a week. Did you come this year?

Here is another source for the Arizona hunters... http://azgs.arizona.edu/ http://minedata.azgs.arizona.edu/content/mining-collections

I am pretty sure Chris has a Zed he is one of the largest Minelab dealers in Arizona and also the North American distributor for NF Coils I believe. It is debatable if his video is an advert or not, I don't care one way or the other, but what I do know for a fact is that Chris knows how to find gold. Be safe on that bike of yours those trails look pretty skinny.

I thought they lost closer to 10% a month but it's been awhile since I looked into these.

Have you had to recharge it yet?

Congrats on the gold and silver. Were you using the stock coil or the 15"?

Thank you Jin for the links.

Did you make this? I am looking into something like this myself, but not sure how to wire the 5 pin connector to the battery pack. Thanks for the wireless link.

If you go to that then you should check out the Tucson Gem and Mineral show. You would need a few days to see about half of it.

Thanks guys. I got an RMA number from minelab yesterday. I am going to send it in Monday but I am going to mess with tonight after work.

Thanks Fred. I didn't think about the power cord, unfortunately I only have one but will be getting another one this weekend.

Thanks AU. I am going to give Minelab a call to see about shipping it off to them.

Here is my problem. I bought this used and I know it's older then 3 years and it was working fine. I can hear the threshold but I can't hear the target response. In this case the target is a gram nugget. I have a metal fire pit in my backyard and I have to put the coil about 6 inches from before I hear a response. This problem comes and goes for what it's worth. I have tried different coils with the same results, used those same coils on my 3000 and everything is dandy. On the front panel I have the switches set as Fixed, Double D, Normal, and General. ( I was using Double D coils) I have tried the Factory preset and the problem is still there. Any ideas before I sent this off to Minelab?

If your looking for a 7000 then I would get a list of Minelab dealers then start calling or emailing them and asking if they have a demo unit for sale. These should come with the full 3 year warranty and you should be able to pick one up for around $5100. I know five guys who all did this and the range was $5025 to $5300. Good Luck

Thanks for this.

Curious about your new Super ice chest. Now that the weather is cooling off it's camping and gold hunting time. Nice gold and crystals by the way.

Like others have already said, thanks for the story and the forum.

Very nice Norm.

Congrats Paul. I tip my hat to you, it seems that you are living your dream and not too many people can say that. I hope maybe you guys would be able to shoot a video of your operation.
