Garrett Z-Lynk or Minelab PRO-SONIC: Who will be first with launching a universal wireless audio module?

Just a couple of weeks ago guys from Garrett announced new universal wireless audio module called Garrett Z-Lynk.

3 Frequency NEL Tornado Coil for Minelab X-Terra metal detectors (review, facts +)

My main metal detector used to be the Garrett AT PRO. I wrote a lot about it in the beginning, when i just had created the blog. Then I sold it and bought a Minelab X-Terra 705 with two coils. Naturally, the detector had a great impression on me, because it was on a higher level of functionality than the AT PRO. Unfortunately, or fortunately, I do not know. AT PRO was good,...

The French XP Detectors company has a hard life. Minelab, a leading company for more than a decade on the market, are threatening the XP Deus company. XP Detectors and their partner in the United States started stealing technology from the Australians, and it seems like they are beginning to suffer. And not only they, but also their distributors.

So, among us diggers there has been a news story for quite some time already (perhaps a month) that Coiltek suddenly started to produce a series of coils for Whites Detectors (mostly metal detectors for gold).

First impressions of the Fisher F75 (photos+)

I finally got the brand new F75 Detector by Fisher! And just as i got it, there is not the slightest possibility to test the new detector because of the damned frost and snow. To be honest, it did not expect to have so much winter at the beginning of November, but i can’t do anything about it. But in the meantime, I will slowly study the manual of this detector. First...

An unusual detector – Teknetics G2 + (review of the kit, photos+)

Recently a somewhat unusual dettector caught my eye, I could not pass by and not take pictures, and i am that guy who easily fall for such unusual devices. But what did i find unusual with this detector? Probably the fact that i have never seen it sell here and I have not seen it on so many forums. Why? Good question!

Field detecting with the Garrett ACE 300i and the Nel Attack coil

In the forest, a thick layer of leaves has covered the ground, and in the fields, farmers have already harvested their crop. As long as the ground is not covered by ice, i decided to go out detecting. This time i decided not to go too far, but rather to a nearby field. The farmer plowed...
