That’s a beastly coil!!!
Nice hunt Liam. Really enjoy your videos.
For a backup battery pack, I use three rechargeable 3.7VDC AA-sized Li-Ion cells and 5 dummy cells so I don't keep depleting those non-rechargeable alkaline cells.
E track does go very deep
If you used the new buffing brush on the Dremel it works great

Now for a good discrimation pattern I need to know what your smallest silver coin reads on your Etrac.
With this setup a high conductor will squeal like a pig !
Listen for it !
Still need to set you up pattern !
I’ll give these a go next time I’m out small hammerd I have comes up a 23
Yes I believe noise cancel 1 opens up the 1.5 khz
@@HistoryRevisiteduk Is that 12-23 ,
18 - 23 , 20 - 23 ?
You can buy lithium iron batteries for the etrac and they used to last well
A nice realistic hunt there Liam 👌
Enjoyed the change of pace with the etrac , I have been looking at the nexus great piece of equipment but out of my price range atm , take care buddy
@@HistoryRevisiteduk It's good to use older machines, don't underestimate them, I've just got myself a mint condition Tesoro/Laser Rapier 2, it's a sweet little machine, Nexus units are vicious in all areas but they're hard to get your head around, when you do there's nothing quite like them. The Legend has been performing amazingly on the Thames, I've found so much in a very short space of time with it, Looking forward to more hunts of yours with the E-Trac
Nice video Liam, enjoyed it. Mum❤
Liam , I need to know what your smallest silver coin reads on your Etrac to set up a pattern.
I was gona ask what makes the etrac heavy, but now I know 😂 First half this vid sounded like you were in a hurricane 🌬
My arm is now longer than the other lol be up in a raffle soon for a stronger arm, yeah was mega windy even hat dead cat on
Nice video
Thanks for you continued support 👍🏻
They're running the last of these (Etrac) out in Australia for £449 in a couple of stores at the moment, so I grabbed myself one. Super interested to see how it goes....
Great detector , best tones of any detector I’ve used and the double ID is very precise
@@HistoryRevisiteduk I'm gonna take it over some old ground smashed out by the Nox 800 on Friday and see if I can find any new silver...I'll let you know how it goes :)
@@HistoryRevisiteduk Yeah, I still hear good things. Getting out for the first time with it it tomorrow. I'm gonna go over a few spots that have been hit hard with Nox's and see if I can turn up anything new.
@@HistoryRevisiteduk I got it out for the first time today. I just love this thing, you're so right about the tones as well. It's on the heavier side, but I'm a fairly big guy so that won't be a problem. I pulled out a few coins in my yard within the first 20 mins and I must have smashed that area with the Nox and other things at least 20 times. Very impressed, I'll say that.
There's a local one being sold for $300. Same model but was wondering if you would buy it for that price. Or is it better to buy a new detector at that price range?
It’s a steal for that price when they first come out was over £1000
@@HistoryRevisiteduk thanks for the reply. I went ahead and bought it for $300. He was asking $400 but accepted $300. Now it is time to learn more in detail. But let me ask since there's a lot of people going to parks and it is more bare by now. I was considering looking for gold nuggets out by the river. Because I live in California and the rivers come to mind because of the good old gold rush that was back in the day. Any thoughts on that?
Edit: would it even work in the river using a water proof bag?
Liam , 2 tone ferrous is not the best setting for deep silver.
Could do with a some good deep silver settings if you know any buddy
@HistoryRevisitedUK OK ,
I'll get some for you !
My Etrac is in my van I'll get it and send you some settings.
