Well with the new machine 1 or 2 weeks away its about time to get rid of the old one. Its about 18mths old has a few bumps & bruises but generally in good condition, everything works as it should.

Since the new detector takes AA I don't need the 9v set up, Its a MH-C490F Stealth charger that charges 4 batts in 2hrs. It measures how much charge each batt needs then goes on to trickle so you never over charge them, also comes with a car charger. Two 9.6v 230mAh powerex & two imodian 9.6v 230mAh "ready when you are" batteries, these hold u to 80% of there charge if left in storage for a year. I get a good 8hrs use out of a charge & of course if you feel like more detecting just chuck in the other set. this set up cost $130

Looking for around $400

So there you have it....a great easy to use set up if ya just starting out.

Caught up with Foiled today at a permission site......this is the best of the days finds.......as you can see the F4 works real good!!!!! haha

Yeah I cant wait to get my mitts on it mate haha & your prob right the F75 will be the next in line, should be an easy step up from the F70 aye. As for the silvers.....seem to have found a half decent patch......Foiled did a fine job of hovering up the silvers yet again haha......but that's another story.
