Heah, this is Gary from Coin a-DIG-tion. About to get me an 800 so I'll have both of these machines. Thanks again for the test. I'll continue to use my Garrett as the sizing info is helpful.
I think you'll like the 800. My brother, of course loves his 2500. Thanks for watching and the idea for this video! You'll be able to make your own version of it soon too.
@@GeorgiaGold will take some getting used to after 19 years on the 2500 but looks simple to use. Glad to see the comparison done. LOL. Yeah, I'll be testing both for sure. Later!
Love the equinox! My dad got one. We still haven’t completely figured it out. We still haven’t found any gold nuggets yet in GA! Cool video looks beautiful out!
Hey Sluiceboy, thanks for chiming in. I haven't used the Equinox 800 to do serious nugget shooting yet. That type of detecting is bit challenging. But, Steve Herschbach has an article posted on the Minelab website that gives some great details about using the detector to find gold: www.minelab.com/community/treasure-talk/nugget-detecting-with-the-minelab-equinox
I just watched the video again and the Equinox 800 got 4 out of 7 targets correct and the GTI 2500 got 5 out of the 7 correct. Equinox was 57% correct and GTI was 71% correct, but with such a small sample size it was pretty much a tie. Both great machines!

What was the % correct from each detector? It seems like a tie to me, but I didn't add them up.

The nox 800 is an extremely awesome machine! I wouldn’t trade mine for anything else right now!!
Yeah, I love it too. Thanks for watching!
Nice👍
