I own a GPZ and an Equinox 800. The Equinox doesn't even come close to the GPZ when it comes to goldfields and gold.
Great machine, but as with most things, you get what you pay for. I will agree that the NOX does surprise a lot, it is a great machine for it's price.
swiftrick15 for sure man, there's no compering them. The 7000 is an amazing bit of kit.
I was more referring to the ability of the NOX for the price. Picking up a shotgun pellet on mineralized ground with a standard coil for a coin machine is outstanding.
Yeah, true that. Plus shot gun pellets just comes with the territory of gold detecting.
One great thing about the GPZ is that gold has a distinct sound on it, even over lead. Its purely audio, which is how I hunt with the NOX, and the pinpointer on the NOX can also reveal a lot about a target and its shape.
I have the Equinox 800 and it has a tone, all of its own, when swung over gold. Comparing the two detectors is redundant, considering the price difference and that the Equinox is a multi-use machine.
Wow! At last, someone with an honest opinion about an Equinox. I was even told by a guy that his Equinox was better than my XP Deus! I mean seriously guys. It might be a decent machine for its price but please keep the comments plausible. Cheers all.
totally understandable about them not wanting to be shown or locations named. Good job Chris. Keep it up bro.
Flash In Your Pan its very important. Theft is rife over there
Fantastic video Chris! Glad you had a chance to get away and have a road trip! Cheers from nearly summer Oregon!!!
Thanks Chris,
You did it again! Great video
Ok, this is why these videos are of big service. I have a MD that has only found me stuff at the beach. tons of tabs and coins. I think I got a gold ring but it was clad. However that tells me that the Garrett Gold Pro detected. Guess what..Im taking it to the river now that I saw you using it here. My target is the pieces of mountain the recent storm Maria left behind. Thanks for the timen and effort on these (lets name them as they are) Productions. Let everybody have Happy Holidays and a gold packed 2019
Good to see another side of finding the gold. Another great Vid Chris.
Lyn Dixon - Australia its way more intense in real life
Brilliant! Those cast are awesome. @12/12:30 what in the world makes that sound?like a cartoon sleeping bulldog 👍😃⛏
I live in dunolly in the golden triangle and started panning and even got myself a detector 😁 was going insane in my shed with my tarantulas and needed an escape and this hobby has done that, have even lost 9kg from the hours of walking around I’ve done in the past month. Just wanted to say thanks as your vids have been a great to watch and very informal. I have the Equinox 800 and have been finding led 22 bullets at 2-4” deep and bbs at 1-2”.. no gold yet but have been having great fun with it.. sadly i dont know anyone that would want to join me in the bush.. very limited friends😂 i also have the 6” coil
That Grizzly he's a goof.
😂
Great vid mate thanks heaps grizz with the frizz was a gd laugh
aahhh i finally see you with a good pan much more than those usual lesser specks in your other videos ~ thanks for filming
Newbie here, I just got a detector, now I’m itching to get out there to have some fun and hopefully find a few momentos.
Great vids mate, cheers 👍
Mate, if you're getting shotgun pelletts with the 600, that's good news because you will get nuggets too...my biggest nuggets come from Central Victoria (Mainly Enfield Forest , Creswick Forest and Close to Dunach) and my biggest one, at the moment, is 39 Grams :)
If I found a chunk of gold like one of those, the second thing I would do is celebrate. The first thing I would do is probably fall. Glad you had fun mate 👍
PioneerPauly the first thing I'd do is cry the second is fetal position.
Vo-Gus Prospecting Lol! The third would be to give it to me 😶
Well I wouldn’t want ya to fight over it so I’ll just take it
Pauly, you’d definitely fall 😂
@@PioneerPauly is it just me or is there a true bromance going on in the commonwealth? ;)
Yew a great vid again Chris
Would love half of one of them larger ones
Just to fix my motor in my van my home
$3000 lol I just will keep looking everywhere for my little vile to fill lol
Will try to get down that way next start of summer
To see Andrew and you if i can be cool doing some diggings with you guys
Learn some more from you all
Hope ya new pad is killer looked well set up with the detectors in cupboard lol
Toorue blue
The Crouch
Chris, you found Elmer Fudds shotgun pellets when he was out hunting Wabbits!... lol... Those gold nugget replicas were amazing, really cool!
ChrisWanz you should of see the real ones there. Wish I could of filmed them!
Another great video
Ive found quite a few small nuggets with the Nox 800
Great video mate ⚒
Love this one Vo gus.
have that same issue with my carrot. thank you for showing the replicas
Great video good gold
Chris, Loved the video and many Thanks for the Channel Shout.
Funny thing regarding the nugget, for customs I said the envelope contained a “decorative rock” and insured it for $1.00 . Figured that way nobody would steal it. Lol
Gary's Sprinkler Repair that sir is a very smart idea
Vo-Gus Prospecting let me know if I can help in the future my friend. Sorry such a long drive to retrieve it.
Gary's Sprinkler Repair all good mate I really appreciate it.
Wow great idea I will remember that next time I sell nuggets to USA/Canada. I usually write mineral sample.
chopppacalamari keep me posted when you’re ready to sell some
Also positioning of targets like orientation and location of other ferrous items nearby can cause the signal to only sound one way. The NOX is very good at seeing stuff. I have dug a few deep silver coins that only made a sound one way.
I commend you for using the 600, I couldn't look for gold without a constant threshold.
Good luck. Keep up the good work
swiftrick15 I chose the 600 because this sort of prospecting is a rarity. The 800 would be way better if its all you did.
Yeah I know what you mean.
Pauly got me here😁💯
So you admit it your a professional dirt flipper. Lol 😆
i know of a place like that where big ones are hiding, but its not for sale and on semi private land ,if it ever comes on the market i will buy it .
Would love to come down , meet up with you do some prospecting with you. I am a disabled American Veteran but I still love to get out and be in the outdoors. Great videos my friend
Let me know if your in Australia
Looks like your learning all about your new toy. It takes time but it's time well invested. You could have the world's best detector...if you don't learn what it's telling you...what's the point? Right? Good to see ya having fun. Cheers😎
Joseph kolodziej exactly, the difference a few settings can make is huge
Vo-Gus Prospecting hopefully one day you'll find a "house"sized nugget
Yeah those nuggets are to big and would wreck my high banker. But on a serious note, the snow has melted enough and water flowing enough so I can get my high banker back at the river this coming weekend. And Chris I have a fellow co worker that wants to come out. Might be successful trip as he's an Ozzie lol. Also another great video 👍 until next time
Jamie Anderson us Aussies are a lucky bunch
Wow! Awesome....
Triangles are cool!
Rastaman Ralph almost as good as circles
Cool video. Looks like a dream-spot. I do not own a metal detector yet but it is on my list. peace
Lots of swinging for lots of junk ;-)
Great video! One of these days you’re going to find a potato 😎
Should have scraped up a couple of tubs of the stuff around where the little nuggets and even the shotgun pellets were found to run through a sluice when you got home. there would have been some concentration of heavies due to surface sheet flow. On second thoughts probably not all that environmentally friendly.
Stephen Wright I actually dry panned a few buckets but cut it from the video. Got one speck
The the The the The the That's all folks lol swinging is ruff I prefer shoveling over swinging unless its a good patch :)
REDMAN PROSPECTING agreed mate
Equinox with 6' coil or a gold monster 1000? Any thoughts?
193 good gold is still out there!!!! But I have yet to find it 🤔
Far out that was quick
Yeah yeah we get it ID FLEX with the cupboard door open look at all my detectors💪🏻👍❤️🤣🤣😂😂
Just trying to take the focus off the beige walls more than 'flexing'
Sure did getting a 4500 soon so I'll be out looking for the monster nugget lol 😂
Hi Chris, you were setting up the small piece of gold to run the 600 over it but it didn't get shown in the Vid. That was of most interest to me as an Equinox owner. Or, did I miss something?
Daryl Hooke you missed it. @6:35
Ohhh Jimminey Crickets Chris its only disgustingly hot for 4 months or so. Hehehe😁
I think there will be not much diff between the 6" and stock coil. It will most probably be better because its smaller and can get into tighter spots. I think this is due to how well the stock coil works with the MULI-IQ and separating targets and this might not be beneficial on a 6" coil.
I will wait and see how others go before I dive in, but this seems to be the consensus at the moment. Could be why Minelab has not been in a rush to release them.
Also, loved those replica nuggets.
And your dog is cool. Always cracks me up.
swiftrick15 I feel as if it would help 600 owners in this sort of ground (or very target dense locations) as like you said it will be getting between each one.
In the mineralized ground the detector would have less noise I feel as the amount of ground under it would be less.
Will be interesting to find out and see how it goes.
swiftrick15 can't wait.
I really want to get this metal detector but I am worried about replacing the battery one day once it gives up I've been researching but I can't find anything on mine lab selling batteries. Do you know anything?
ive put 150+ hours in with that machine now and ive charged it about 12 times.
The battery will probably out last me as a person.
that music at the end is really loud. :o the rest is superb :)
Stian Setermo I miss some stuff in edit
Shame on me!!! I thought I subscribed about a year ago, but just noticed I hadn't 😐 Sorry Chris. I have now.
No wonder I never got notifications about your videos!
Better late than never 😄
BallaratDragon it happens lol
Hey Chris, Was just wondering if that was your equinox 600 or did you purchase an 800 cheers.
All good mate i watched further on and you answered my question.
Chris I thought you didn't have the nox
Salut l'ami, hello my friend 😍👋👍
When you said “Cweek”, I thought one of my knee joints was talking to me. When I detect, I have to use earphones to deaden the ‘ cweeking’ sounds coming from my poor old body. ;).
Phoenix50 Fossicker god that's funny
Your thoughts on the mine lab equinox 440?
There's only a 600 and 800 in the Equinox series. The vanquish series has the 440.
For the money is save up for the Equinox 600 at least. 800 if you can afford it.
Stoked you were able to join us for the weekend mate. Hopefully next time we can help you find some shiny. Maybe enough so you too can get yourself a GPLead 7000 :)
Rick Shaw can't wait for a gplead!
Great video Chris...no big nuggets like that in Maine...but we got some wicked oversized Lobsta!
Vo-Gus and friends i am in the market for a detector whats you opinion on the Garrett AT GOLD vs gold bug pro?
skylar hamilton I've only used the gold bug so I can't compare. The gold bug is a pretty amazing machine, it'll find the tiniest bits of gold.
thanks for replying i appreciate it ii have used the Garrett AT gold in the past and dug old musket balls and tiny bird shot and was able to check my target before i dug it using its iron discrimination, i was told if i keep digging those lead targets then i would soon get a nugget i'm very hopeful
I'm saving my money by not buying another detector until I can aford an Eq. 800.... I think that's just the one I want so that maybe some day I'll get to A state where there's a bit of gold and get me some... LOL...
Bobby Baldeagle I think you will find a way to
Alloy is a bitch when you're detecting. Really gives off a gold signal most times.
Grizzly 👍😀
So there is some big gold there in Victoria Australia left to be found mate ?
Jeffrey Elliott put it this way, it makes what they pull on gold rush look like kids stuff.
What does it cost to metal detect for gold out at down under ? I know it cost plenty to fly there from state side America but that aside !!! So do guys or hobbyist actually do quite well down under making a living finding gold nuggets that is !!! It's merely a one day of the week for me in the hobby chasing placer gold in creeks such as yourself down there but boy is the gold here ultra small but plentiful when working decomposed bedrock and finding the occasional pickers are here and there to had after moving what seems to be a ton of material !!!
Jeffrey Elliott you can rent a detector for around $60. There are plenty of people making a living from it.
It would likely be illegal to go out on your own as a tourist (visa breach), that said, someone has to be interested enough to do something about it. Interestingly, that boomerang shaped thing was found in the last 15 years at a depth of 60cm at a public BBQ ground at Ballarat.
@@VoGusProspecting Hire detectors, wher at pls,
Don't worry I got a prize for the competition! 100 2016 uncirculated in the bag 1p's
Rastaman Ralph awesome man
Great video bro just found your channel and subscribed I'll check some more soon cheers 🍻
Hope you enjoy it man!!
where can I look up stories of prospectors who've been targeted? I find it's good motivation to learn from others' misfortune(in this regard-better discretion).
No idea, news papers
hi hey can you send me an addy where i can contact you want to ask you where can i get some of that ally ripple mesh for my sluice in sa
They sell it at steel places. Go to your local industrial center and ask for expanded walkway mesh
Is that public land
Yes, all public
Wow amazing
all that effort for nothing. lucky it's all about the Chase and places we go not just the gold. rivers are good to play in but if we are to strike it lucky I think you need to detect
East Gippsland gold adventure its all about the adventure
Dude hit me up if any availability.Pom, work like a dog. Enjoy a beer
ure so fucking handsome
Taş 😃 fake ☺
