![Minelab Equinox 800 Going Deeper [Deep Settings & Tips]](/img/1.gif)
Thank you again for another excellent video. I feel like I'm soon to graduate from MInelab University with Prof. Gigmaster! You're helping a lot of people!
As a rookie to the hobby, I really love these info vids, they teach me about my machine. Thank You!!
There is a reason Minelab set the default Recovery speed at 6 in Park2. Sure you can lower it and get more depth, but you are giving up hearing some targets if you go real low on the recovery speed in thicker trash. Some folks think 5 is a good trade off sweet spot.
I might add new galvanized nails are not a good representative of masking objects. Try using some rusty nails or bent rusty nails. Also no detector is going to pick up that quarter between those two massive cannonball fragments. That was a waste of time for showing what adjusting recovery speed will do for you.
Again Minelab is obviously not stupid and set the Recovery speed and Iron Bias in each program where they did for a reason. I'm stating the obvious here, but if you have very little iron or non-ferrous trash lower the recovery speed to gain more depth. If trash is thick raise it up some. The chances of detecting deep targets in thick trash is pretty slim anyway.
You have some of the best instructional videos on settings that i've seen. Not only are you explaining the settings but you are giving excellent tests to show what you are explaining. It seems that if you use a low recovery speed and slow down your swing speed a bit, you could do well in depth and separation. I myself just dont see the usefulness of a max recovery speed for everyday hunting but I am new to the nox and still have a lot to learn.
Thanks for demonstrating this test! I will definitely be going back to places that have been producing great finds and try a slower recovery speed. Thanks Gigmaster
While waiting for this snow to melt and watching Equinox videos and learning what I can I came across your videos. I can say I truly enjoy watching them. Keep up the good work. HH bud.
try to set it at park 2 tone then check the recovery speeds. I can pick up a wedding ring between 2 iron heavy nails
Your making some brilliant Nox set up video's . Love them .
Watched one of your videos and was able learn enough to find my wedding ring. I had lost it in a lake when kayaking. Thank you
Congrats! Good job
Nicely done! One of the few air tests or non-in ground (if thats a proper expression) evaluations that has real relevance, thanks. Better than 2 1/2 years on my 800 and I’m always learning. Picked up a 600 this year for my wife to knock around with. That 1730 cob in my hand was a Nox 800 find in a really trashy colonial site. Many other equally impressive finds there too.
Thanks for sharing this, I’m learning a lot from you on the nox800, thanks
Very Excellent video. Thanks for taking the time to make it.
Great video ! I learn a lot from ur test, I'm still learning my Equinox. Keep up the videos GL&HH
Great recovery speed demo. Very informative. Thanks
Brilliant video.. Just what I needed as new to the Equinox..
Just got 1 today and did not know what the recovery speed was and this brought it all to light and i am very grateful for this vido
When you lower the recovery speed you need to swing slower. If you dont you will miss targets
I have just received my equinox 800 so this video was very useful thanks. Our ground is frozen solid so lots of time to do some air test.
Thanks for the info we are getting two next week ,, I was torn between the two ;;; the AT Max and the Equinox 800 , I will be doing some in creeks as well land
Great demonstration sir ,,!!! Always very easy to understand,,I follow you exclusively,,!! Keep them coming,,!!! Have you compared depth of the 800 versus the 900
Awesome demo. Thanks!
In the next vid try iron bias and it's effects on depth. Then a vid that combines iron bias and recovery speed. I bet there is a sweet spot that will work for 75% of all ground conditions. Then we can fine tune the exceptions....good vids. I like em.
Very knowledgable man"one of my favorite American detectorist's.great video top man.
Great information.. awesome video!
great, informative video Gigmaster--than ks Clive.
Keep the info coming. Thanks.
Great test! We’ll thought out and executed.
Enjoyed your test. Good job!
Good video that’s a big distance in depth wow !!
i notice my comments disappear. i like your videos. I have followed several people with detectors in parks and found all kinds of coins behind them. slow the swinging down and over lap swings. Im set at park 2 and run with 2 tones.
If you really want a surprise, swing over the nails and coin on the other axis! Ive learned to overcome this phenomenon with the 800.
Thanks! Great info!
Thanks for those goooooood tips see you on the next one👌🏻👍🏻✌️🥑🇲🇽
Nice video as always Steve.. I am reviewing some older ones to help me with settings. I think this is one in particular may not be quite accurate though, as the detector may not pick it up the same 6 or 8 inches over it and in the ground, like it picks it up hovering an inch over it. Might you want to revisit this topic with some distance under the coil ?? I think results may be quite different and it would be nice to see.
Greetings from the UK!
Another great video. Over here, it seems common knowledge that iron bias has an effect on depth too.
It seems a fine balance to get the iron bias and recovery speed set to achieve good depth and reduce falsing from iron.
Thoughts run between a 3 x 3 or 4 x 4 setup in relation to iron bias and recovery.
Any chance of a video experimenting with this?....I'm still waiting for delivery!
Gaz.
Thank you! Very informative video.
Well done. Very educational.
Gig, enjoy your videos. Would you do a video showing depth with the various frequencies in field mode 2?
Brilliant explanation, thank you 👍🇬🇧
Excellent video!
Thank you for the very helpful videos,,,,
Depends on the target. Shallow clad high trash areas versus old dwellings with possible silver. They areas you hunt determines the settings.
Nice ty for the info Happy hunting and GL
Thanks this was really helpful
Good video. I would like to see the different coin test again at different depths. Penny, nickel, dime, and quarter at say 3", 6", 9", and 12" with the different recovery speeds. Would be interesting to see.
Great testing , Steve. WIll you be able to pick out a silver dime on a sheet of steel?
The reason I ask is because I found a place on a river bank that was an old dump where hundreds of automobiles were dumped 100 years ago. The base ground is clay, with crumbled pieces of steel mixed with dirt on top. With a bucket on the waters edge I washed the bank .
I found a lot of cool stuff, four silver dimes (one 1887 Seated Liberty Dime) , old padlocks, skeleton keys, all without a metal detector. I plan to go there this summer again with a metal detector. Or is that soil too mineralized?
Great machine,, awesome review cheers
I almost bought an Equinox to replace my Tesoro Vaquero. I'm glad I didn't. My Vaq would find that masked quarter all day long and the silver dollar at 16 inches.. Thanks for the upload.
So far used recovery speed 5. It seems super fast. Keep them coming. Just put out a video with ID numbers for Canadian and U.S. coins. I have two major issues so far: 1. eliminating/recognizing wine type screw tops from silver dime/quarter range, bottle caps falling closer to gold range.
You won’t be able to separate certain things like bottomless caps. If you did, you would potentially miss targets.
good vid mr steve......i like it
Thanks Max. Love that gold and ice ring you found yesterday!
Took an equinox 800 to the last DIV. We were a few miles from Warrenton. The ground was hot but maybe not as hot as some of the sites closer to culpepper. What we learned is that low recovery speeds are bad at penetrating the hot dirt. So that's something to think about if you get yourself in an area with hot ground. Play with the recovery speed and see what works best for you. A low iron bias is probably a good idea too.
The1ns1ght Great info! Thanks
@@Gigmaster in this video wich version of software you have? Thanks
Great video
I’m starting hate my mine lab though
Why's that dude? I'm thinking about getting one
Good info,but still would like to see it compared to the a/t max! So how bout it?
Could you try that again in addition to the iron bias settings low to high. I hunt a lot of house tear downs. Lots of iron! Thanks
Good info thanks, but if you go to a 4 or 5 recovery is that a happy medium?
Great video
Great test
Gigmaster,
Another well done video. I'm curious about your slowing the recovery speed down to get more depth at your heavily hunted sites. Given the Equinox's "unmasking" ability due to the faster recovery speed, wouldn't there be merit in hunting with a higher setting to see what targets were previously masked by iron targets? I'm thinking that you may find shallower targets that the Equinox will see that other machines missed.
Bill
I will be testing it all in the field! There is no one setting for all situations!
They are air tests and its best to not just carry on till you get a slight blip. Those are easy to miss in ground . As for in ground you have to find the point in air test that the machine has a clear two way signal before breaking up . Then you have the in ground depth . Ground conditions apply too.
Need to hit it at the middle of the coil vs bottom to get another inch or 2. Happy hunting! Also found the best depth is around 5 and 6
great video
the nox is an awesome machine but I prefer my deus its lighter more portable and has good depth and target separation wish I had bought one as my first machine instead of the at pro which I find frustrating to operate it's heavy falses alot and pin pointing is difficult the nox maybe in the future for me as a beach machine thanks for the demo
I love my Deus but I spend a lot of time in the water. I wish it was waterproof.
Good information
Once I get mine ( Equi800) I'm coming down to hang out with you!
LOL, Come on!
What happens if the non ferrous is set around 1-3 and the ferrous is set to 6-8. Or do they need to be the same? What effect would it have?
for the iron experiment you'd need to set the iron bias?
Steve alabash digger says if using the horseshoe button for iron still dig it it could be a good target what do you say?
Have you tried to detect just on pinpoint? What would be the difference in depth?
If you compare minelab800 vs gold bug2 which one is the best
Liked the test. Good job.
Good video. Enjoyed watching you in MASH. :-P
😂
Looks like you cracked your screen mate top left ?
I think it should be a mixture between depth and recovery speed but i think depth is better
Hi Gigi , It was a very instructive explanation but what is the test in the water You can not wave quickly in the water .I think in the water that the best speed is between 2 or 3 . Greeting Janusz From Belgium
Slower in water for sure! Still thinking I will try slower recovery speed for max depth this summer! Thanks for coming all the way from Belgium! Good luck over there!
Hi,
What if you used F2 update would it be even better?
great vid,if you wanna go deep-CTX3030 mach.
You make great videos....Have you noticed any cross talking when hunting near other detectors
jim sargo Yes, when i stand next to them.
It'll be 2 years come July and I'm still doing different settings.
I Just get my nox on recovery speed At one im gone to try it out tomorrow.
Will it find a 20 pound bronze box at 3 feet depth?
It also depends on what direction you are going, the 2 irons beside the quarter had you been swinging another way it Probley would have hit on the quarter and yeah it has faster process but swing speed still plays a factor in it all. I dont much care for air tests if it would have been in ground it would have made a difference I do believe, them 2 iron targets towered over quarter, had you been going long ways down the board it would have hit quarter enough to make you investigate just my opinion on it not criticizing video at all, again just my opinion. Thanks and HH
Im so itching 2try my new equinox800 i get mine 2mrw will b my 1st time metal detecting
What does iron bias settings do with the iron test ?
Hello, my friend. congratulations for the great video! very interesting! is it a problem for you if I make videos similar to yours but in Italian?
hello Gigmaster, thanks, but does the iron bias play on the depth limit of detection ?
sagefou sagefou Good question I need to test that!
Cool video. But what about some recovery speed settings in between the highest and lowest
NB Digger - I like to look at the extremes and know there is a good medium in between for each persons personal preference. I may actually use the 1 in an area i want max depth and 8 in an extremely iron contaminated area with shallow targets. It will really depend on the situation but at least i know what the settings produce in the extremes.
Do you keep recovery speed at 1 on the beach ??
NB Digger no, 3 or 4
nice one
Hi gig,do you use 1 as a recovery speed at the beach? Thanks
Usually 3/4
Would you say 4 or 5 recovery speed would be the best of speed and depth?
Good general range but again it will depend on swing speed and type of ground you are hunting in.
Cheers
my deus have the euro 50 cents in air test by 18 inces. that machine is sure beter on dry beacht but not as deep the deus in field
I have a Deus too! Just wanted a better waterproof/ underwater machine.
Stefanos Laidis Not as expensive, either.
how high can you set the discr. to get rid of nails and still read coin
Have tested the 15 inch coil ???
No definitive tests but working good for me so far!
Nice video but the audio keeps changing from hardly hearing you to being too loud.
sounds fine on my lap top. You may have a problem on your end.
Nice video, thanks GiG. From California,watch QuickSilver
videos!
You can't go by air test!
Air only gives a perspective and hopefully a good statistical representation of the performance in air or ground.
Jason likes
Sorry bro I hate air test, it dont tell you any thing it is all about the ground you are on
Leutschuk I agree but there are infinite types of ground also so if i test in sandy soil and you go to clay it would be irrelevant. Air does test the intensity of the coil when doing comparisons and is a good indication when comparing detectors.
@@Gigmaster You did set the respond down then you have to swing slow like if you did detekt with a CTX 3030 it go dam deep and you swing slow
Not that impressed with the distance compared to the XP Deus just did the same test and with reactive 1- 21 inch reactive 3 -18 inch 11 inch coil
The numbers are jumping all over the place , This is why I don't like screens , The tesoro tejon is both fast and deep , And watching reviews on this and the ridiculously priced deus just confirm that I'll be sticking with the tejon.
F75 would pick it up" Fast"
Dave N Japan I have heard good stuff on that one. May have to try one in the future.
