For what it's worth rainday, I think you've made a good decision considering your recent posts on the choice. I know the Equinox is not properly tested yet, it just needs a few to get out on our beaches and fields and we will see, look forward to your experiences and best of luck.   Wink Wink

He who dares Rodders:)
Someone has got to go first lads.
But seriously looking at the videos on YouTube it seems impressive and if it's not I'm sure I will be able to sell it for a good price.

Looks like a good choice mate, Iv been looking at the equinox as a future upgrade so I eagerly await your early thoughts on the performance. did you go for the 800 or the 600 it would be interesting to hear your reason for choosing one over the other, thanks, happy hunting.  Grin

Hi that was going to be my next question "do have a release date" I guess we will just have to be patient. looking forward to seeing some reviews on you tube in the new year. hope you have great success with your new machine when it eventually arrives, happy hunting.

  my view is I'm a very sceptical person on new technology based detectors that promise great things especially since the saga of extreme depth from the blisstool team  [does anybody remember them] so with all that hype in mind I now tend to sit on the fence and await the feedback on this one.as for the release date some say by Christmas others say april/may and with a lots of interest in this new detector it might well be the latter for most of us.

It'll be interesting to see how you get on with it.

I'm currently sticking with my trusty E_TRAC - doesn't matter what else I buy (except maybe the Deus) I keep going back to it........so it would be nice to have the same stuff, but lighter Cheesy

Very wise words Buzzerman,...if you look at the "blerb"  of every manufacturer  bringing their "new" machine one might believe it's as deep as a JCB with a coil attached .. LOL 😀 !!
Let's all just wait and see,as this time next year it will be another detector on the shelf Beng offered for sale at bargain prices,and even some second hand deals that are up for grabs from disappointed purchaser's who rushed out to buy the new technology and finding out that it actually wasn't as good as the detector they got rid of !!...just a thought !!
Good hunting...👍
