He's back👍Metal detectors must be the most overpriced gadget when you think about it. How can a nox be worth £600-800? Look forward to your future vids.👍
It good machine. I use minelab go find 66 and equinox 600 before. I sell them and buy tx850 after trying my friend tx850. It good. Cheap.. just not waterproof and use old technology. But it can detect good thing better than equinox 600.
Well done Chris! Too many people getting all high and mighty about promoting these cloned machines. Some people simply don't have money to spend on the usual suspects and just want to give it a go and pretending these machines are not out there is not really helpful. I have tested this machine myself and for the price, it works well. Having said that. A used Quest X5 can be picked up for around the same price and that is definitely a better machine.
I know I wasn't the only one who sees the cheapies and disregards them as rubbish but sometimes there is a gem in amongst the tat. Cheers for dropping by, stay tuned for the test hunt
You know I’ve always wondered what happens to the major brand names over seas assets when for instance they move on to newer models or the tooling and manufacturing facilities are deemed “too old” whatever the case I’m sure these people don’t want to lose there jobs or have a perfectly good factory sitting around I mean Garrett and first Texas are only “assembled” in America from global parts and so here we are with a teknetics detector with a Garrett coil lol nothing wrong with that if it works it works that’s all that matters and if you saved some coin Better
Hi,this is my first metal detector,the coil broke while stored,i am desperate to get going but i cant seem to set it up,so i bought a mars goliath 15" replacement as was recommended as it works well with the the tx850 machine,so i was told by a few sellers. Anychance i can get help to set it up from anyone,PLEASE,thanks.
Hello mate. I have one of these my first detector last year found me gold sovereign first month have had gold wax seal hammys an all sorts its a great machine no difference from the G2 its self in performance. I have a 5in coil 13in nel tornado aswell with the nel picking up half pennys around 14in on the fade off if u want any tips let me know i run in disc mode.
It was interesting to switch between the two modes. Impressed with the results. Filmed the test, just gotta edit it. Cheers for watching, I'll keep you in mind
@@Hadesdetecting yes the 13in is but paid 120 for coik brand new the 5in round one was off amazon its a gold finder 5in copy of the gold bug coil. It is honestly a great machine for what u paid u get what G2 does at well under half its price
Many thanks mate...Just thinking of going for a Tx 850 👍
It's one of the Chinese machines I've kept for a long time now.good luck happy Hunting
The return of the legend! Good to see you back Chris, looking forward to seeing this in action.
Lol not sure about legend but I'll take it. Could be a keeper this one

Glad your still subbed, yes agree with you there. I may need to try the garret copy next
i have the tx850 myself, good machine and yes, the coil is waterproof but the control box (display) is not.

Excellent machine
@@40teodor it's not bad,check out my latest video with a big coil on it
i have a tx 850 a back up machine i have been surprised and pleased with it , it is a good machine cant fault it
The field test video is out Friday, not gonna spoil it but I'll be holding onto it for a while
General recommended settings?
Welcome back 👍
It's been a while, got alot of footage just really didn't fancy editing. So there should be some more videos coming with a different machine to

To be honest I don't know about compatibility of coils with that machine.definitly worth googling it I think
I have one of these , been out twice with it found a victorian Naval officers button, second swing found Roman lead coin. Fgging bargain mate
Good machines for the money,just got hold of the legit original....gonna see how the copy compares to the original

@@Hadesdetecting yeah it sure is fun. Set disc to 35 or 40 then good to go
@@paulaiowdetecting3142 I take it your nel coils were for the teknetics machine? If so I'll keep my eyes open for oney
