Could we get a picture or weight of the smallest one of those nuggets the machine would pick up in multi freq? Soon I would think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan Porter Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 I've been using the Equinox with audio straight out of the receiver unit and not using the B&Z at all (The EQ audio is perfectly fine straight to headphones without any real need for a booster), due to the hot weather I've been wearing my Camel Back for the water and my B&Z is permanently attached to that. Strongly suggest readers go to the Treasure Talk link and read the Important Update section, which goes a long way to explaining why as testers we can't specifically comment about a lot of aspects of a detector still under development. JP Some of the gold I've found with the Equinox, to put it into perspective size wise there is just over a gram of gold in the pic. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewcon4414 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Wow..... and to put that in perspective for water hunters.......1 grain = 0.06 grams. Xcal would pick up a piece of gold approx .3 grams and we know it depends on size and whats mixed with that gold. Impressive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redneck Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Jonathon, where you running in all metal, or where you running some discrimination for small iron? That's some small gold for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Porter Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 Thought I'd post some more pics of some of the tiny pieces I've found with the Equinox 800. JP 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredmason Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Very nice, Jonathan! I have ordered an Equinox. The multi-purpose and weight will be a nice relief. However, I agree a small coil does require a different mind-set than the 14" or 19 " GPZ... hope they get one to me soon fred 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MineBlab Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I'd be interested in how deep those pickers were. Very interested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odanscoils Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hello Gentlemen an LadyTesters,, Now that the bird has flown the coop. And the Equinox has landed in many Happy Nests. Wouldn’t you agree with me. It’s about time for Minelab to cut you loose from your NDA’s ! I for one would love to know the settings used here on that purty gold ? And explanations of why those settings were used. I know all involved with the testing are most certainly tired of questions like these. Please excuse my persistence . It’s just the machine is no longer a secret. What is there to hide? I wish to thank all involved in the testing and final faze updating information of this fine new Evolution in Metal Detecting Technology!!! Thank You for Your Time Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
