mn90403 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 I had one of the first 800s in the USA. It worked fine for something less than a year and then one day I turned it off and I felt something 'give.' When I went detecting the next time I could not get it back on. You could tell the switch was 'floating' under the on/off button. I sent the 'computer portion' of the detector in to Minelab USA and they replaced it. I was told that the switch had broken off the board. It was not my fault and it has not happened since but I don't press the on/off button very hard any more. You never know and when they give you a new replacement they don't extend the warranty. Mitchel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xergix Posted January 18, 2022 Author Share Posted January 18, 2022 Now it's gone for repair, but a "Sea Ghost" has been ordered, at least it has no mechanical buttons to break, I don't understand why ML didn't think of such a thing when designing the Equinox.
