Ridge Runner Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Hey steveg I really like your pricing on the coils for the Equinox. Would you be so kind to email Minelab to let them know the price you’ve come up with and we all here approved said price.ha I guess we can cover this in more detail at the next board meeting.

Plus one on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayfarer Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I'm preparing myself for a $249 msrp on the extra coils by learning how to use the stock 11" exclusively in all conditions! 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Bill Southern said that Minelab has yet to put a price on their coils and it may be a while after we get the Equinox before we do . The size is 6” 11” and a 12x15”. We know the Equinox comes with the 11”. Spit in one hand and wish in the other to see what gets full the fastest.

Steve Herschbach Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 Wow, I guess I still get surprised now and then. Minelab has yet to learn that the time to sell accessories is when a customer has the credit card out and is buying the detector. Time to talk accessories. Now, no coil prices, no ETA - that is going to cost them and dealers lots of accessory sales. Many people will get the detector and after the excitement dies down, decide the stock coil is good enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan on picking up a couple extras as soon as they are made available. One for the glove box, and another for the carrying case. Being stuck with a low/dead battery, and no way to charge it would be awful. I also have a 7 month old Labrador that loves chewing on anything. I don't want to take any chances! I imagine Minelab will sell more charging cables then any other accessory by far. People will be opening up their wallets to buy these cables. And when they do, they will probably buy other accessories as well. I know I will. Hopefully the charging cables, waterproof headphones, and 6" coil are available at release, or soon after.

Absolutely, thank you! I do need to double check something however. The Equinox 800 may come with two charging cables, one for the detector, and one for the WM08. It is the same cable, and it would be crazy to not be able to charge the WM08 while you are charging your detector. Time for an email to clarify. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
