Chase Goldman Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 2 hours ago, Geordiedan said: Have to agree I use my wm08 all the time. The assumption had been that the new machines would be Bluetooth LE compliant but so far I’ve not heard of anyone pairing any non-OEM devices as yet. I am also surprised ML totally abandoned their WiMax platform going forward. It was overpriced and the lack of cross-detector compatibility was frustrating, but it generally worked well, though there were issues with manufacturing quality, which seems par for the course with ML. The lack of BT LE non-OEM accessories mentioned is likely because there just isn't that much out there right now. Would be great if ML developed a BT LE compatible universal receiver to mimic the WM08 functionality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TampaBayBrad Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Came across an article that pretty well shows the advantages of the Manticore over the 900, including a side by side table comparison at the end of the page. One thing that he misses is the 50% more power that the Manticore has compared to the 900. The 50% more power is explained by a Minelab rep among other features in the youtube video I linked at around the 2:19 mark. The article discusses discrimination differences of the 2D ID screen vs. the 900's discrimination, the monochrome vs. color lcd, the multi-IQ of the 900 vs. the multi-IQ+ of the Manticore, 4 search modes vs. 10, more sensitivity adjustments, etc.... A good read if your on the fence as to which to buy. Apologies if these were already linked somewhere in the prior 20 pages.
