Hi guys! How are you? I've had minelab equinox 800 for years, then I switched to equinox 900 the rod practically changes but otherwise they are the same, now I have a manticore and there is no comparison with nox 800 and 900, manticore a real beast.

Hey mate 👍 yes it does seem like the manticore is a beast, we only had a day to play with it so was noway near to understanding it haha we need a little longer than a day to get to grips with the beast.

Good afternoon, I'm interested in starting to detect along with my brother but obviously don't want to spend too much in case I don't continue with the hobby. However, having said that is it ever worth paying sub £150 for a detector? Any advice welcome. Cheers.

Hey mate, my advice would to have a look on Facebook for a second hand vanquish 340, you should be able to pick one up for that price :-) belting machine for the money for sure.. LP also have a few starter packs with all the gear that are great value. They also do finance that's great too. Here is a link to one of them bundles collabs.shop/cxuhj4
