So An Mcore, Deus 2, And T2 Go For A Walk At The Bullet Site

Good report Daniel..

Now you know why about a month ago On Toms forum I said if i could only have one machine it would be a T2. No Boost mode either a classic model?

People were like ???? but you got to know what ya know at the end of the day.

IIRC the T2 has a static all metal mode with TID (my F75 LTD did, so I'm assuming the T2 did as well), and although I didn't enjoy using it, I know there was a following and they were finding uber deep coins, bullets, buttons, etc.

Keith,

I was trying to buy my buddies T2 while we were hunting but he wouldn't part ways with it. Luckily, one of my other buddies said he had a new in the box F75 he'd part with. He wanted $400 for it but I traded him some 5.56mm ammo for it and so now I have a F75.  Even though the T2 and F75 are similar...I always favored the T2 for some reason BUT for a few boxes of ammo in trading even, I will gladly take the F75.  The very first thing I did after getting it was order the Fisher 5x10" DD coil. After my Arkansas fishing trip, I will start saving for an Axiom and between the Axiom and F75, I should have all my local hunting covered. The only wild card would be not having a water machine for the beach.  For that I will probably buy a Manticore again when they become more available down the road.

Yes Daniel not much different on a T2 Vs F75.

Yet I prefer a T2.I'm a sucker for the color green..And I like the 40 points of iron resolution just for the simple fact it lumps higher conductors closer together ..I dont like 3 ringers reading in the 50s I  like them to read in the 70s ?.I also like  that the T2 does a hard reset on every turn on instead of a memory recall.Makes sure you set it like you want and dont rely on last site settings and also it seems to reduce noise that a hard reset seems to offer the Hyper machines from FTP.

Yet they are both equal units maybe F75 is slightly hotter sometimes?

I also like the F19 units for heavy iron as a complimentary unit to the t2/F75.

There's alot of great machines but I've found as of late to get any more out of machines manufacturers are offering infinite settings and to me the more we can tweak the more we second guess ourselves settings wise.

I like the K.I.S.S. approach to machines.

Sounds like you got into the F75 in a trade so that's always nice for sure.Easy on the wallet!!

I to am really interested in this Axiom.Looks like a great bad dirt and beach unit.!!

I had the T2 and the F75 and decided to hang on to the F75 because it was compatible with concentric coils while the T2 was not.

Same for me if it was not weighing 1,57kg  ( vs 800g for my D2 ) ..

I like the ergonomics of the T2/F75 very very well.Feels very natural to me!

Here's what Dave Johnson the engineer of the product  says about the mechanical design.

How difficult was it walking the line between superb ergonomics and weight vs. structural durability (on the T-2 and F-75)?

Dave: "It took a lot of attention to detail. I was originally shooting for even lower weight. I’ve been studying the physiology of metal detector ergonomics for my whole career and on this product I had a blank check to get it right. There were things we had to do to get the ergonomics right that added weight. We were all betting that good ergonomics was more important than shaving every ounce, and the T2 and F75 proved us right. Nobody is saying we should have made it lighter."

Your T2 and F75 machines created many fans. To what would you attribute the success of these units? The best ergonomics in the entire industry, in fact the only products for which the manufacturer publishes ergonomic specifications. We did it scientifically, not by guesswork.
