Finally ! I have been waiting for someone to take it into salt water. Thank you very much.
Thanks, I have taken into sea water 4 times now over the last week.
@@SandyToesDetecting Is he good at sea or not? Someone told me that sent a lot of false signals into the sea.
@@aagl78 yes it works.
@@aagl78 a lot or false sounds for me . And when you ground balance and reduce the sensitivity to half tu reduce the false sounds ,the max depth is 5 cm
Good finds keep digging & find those goodies
thanks
I was happy to see that you had done a video for the Simplex + in the sea. Your demonstration answered many questions for me. I appreciate your efforts. Looks like a very capable machine for the money.
Cheers
Thanks, glad you liked it. If you have any question please ask.
@@SandyToesDetecting I am curious if the machine will operate with off the shelf Bluetooth headphones or does it only operate wirelessly with proprietary Nokta Macro wireless headphones?
Cheers
@@lambertsimnelales5878 I am not sure, I use the wired headphones only but from what I have read the bluetooth headphones use a specific channels which might not allow connection to off shelf bt ones, I was hoping to try it soon.
Congratulations for the first water video for the simplex on youtube. Got mine today, now waiting for better weather to take it out.
thanks. I only got it yesterday so lots more to do with it, beach again in morning. :-)
Hi. How did you get yours already.... are they being delivered finally.... I paid for mine like a month ago😀
@@esdificil3764 I was lucky and purchased on first batch of preorders back in August.
I ordered mine 4 days ago and it is still unavailable. I'm extremely excited to receive it! Have fun with yours!
@@computergrant1 cool, enjoy it.
I really enjoyed the video. Been thinking about getting one, so I have been watching as many videos as possible. Your video was the first one under water that I have seen. You explained things very well. Thanks much for taking the time to do this video, it is very helpful and interesting to watch !
Thanks, glad you liked, if you have any questions ask away.
Congratulations on what I consider a very fare review on the Simplex+. Best of all for any doubters out there, how good was it to see it under the water working away. Well done, enjoyed my visit. H.H. My friend. Just subbed to your chanel.
Thanks, I always try to be fair and open on my reviews. Thanks for the sub.
Nice Video ST!! Looks like a real solid machine, Thanks for sharing!
yes, its quite good, still liked my tricked out excalibur.
For a beach and water machine that has to be absolutely the best machine for the money out there, what other machine for that money can you take in the water 👍
Yes, its the bees knees. I will be doing a video at some point with a few suggestions for nokta/makro at some point but want to get a few more hours under my belt on before that.
thanks for your quick response
That was a great video about the Simplex. Mine is still on back order but after seeing you working it, it's even harder for me to wait. Enjoyed your video quite a bit. Got a new subscriber here. GL & HH
Thanks, do you have ETA on delivery ?. I was lucky to get in on first batch.
Thank you so much for taking the Simplex into salt water. I have been waiting to see it operate under water. Ordered mine today. Thanks again.
cool
Hello from the Orlando. Have my Simplex on order and can't wait. Thank you for the video. I plan to use it in salt water. I will subscribe. Cheers , Rick
Thanks Rick. It will do well, your beaches are supposed to be good. I would love to do them sometime.
Hey Erik, I'm in Sanford if you want to meet up and hunt 👋😎🙋
I got my Simplex a few months ago as well 💙 love it!!!!
Why didn’t you just drive to Kellyco in Casselberry and get one ? 😎
Nice to see it working in the wet, nice detector
yes, pleased so far.
Hi Thanks for the great video, What kind of headphone did you need to use?
I use corded headphone s bluetooth does not work when display module goes underwater. I have a set of custom made ones which i use on my detectors, I adapted the plug to a waterproof 3.5mm one.
Thanks for the inspiration in your vid. you gave me to finally buy the simplex metal detecting underwater. Works great👌
I wish i was on commission :-) Enjoy and good luck.
Nokta makes a pulse scan under water detector that doubles as a pinpointed you could use with the simplex.If the detector is chattering on the wet sands go to ground balance setting change the ground balance value to 0.00 and then switch to any of the other detecting modes and it will automatically set itself to the proper ground balance.
you are the 1st I've seen take it into the salt water and it still works! Well done Sir! Aaaaand..... you have a new Sub!
Yes I was first in world to do so. I had one from the first batch released to the public and took it straight to the sea :-)
@@SandyToesDetecting I was waffling about between the Quest Q30 the Simplex+ or the Minelab 540... this review helped make the decision eseay. I will do a review from Southern California in the near future
@@alien4fish Look forward to seeing that.
Bonjour, j'ai un notka simplex + , je détecte dans l'eau salée en mer, mais à partir de 3 en sensibilité il y a beaucoup de faux signaux et s'est indétectable, sachant que à 3 en sensibilité sa détecte tout juste en surface rien en profondeur. J'ai mis l'effet de sol à 0 également. Je ne comprend pas comment vous faite pour ne pas avoir de faux signaux. Pourriez-vous partager vos réglages?
J'en profites également pour vous demander quel serait le meilleur détecteur dans l'eau salée en mer qui puissent bien détecter (escalibur 2 ou Deus 2 ou equinox 900 - 700 ou encore d'autres?).
Salut
Les plages peuvent être très différentes, certaines ont beaucoup de fausses cibles, des choses comme les algues peuvent en être la cause. Je n'ai plus de simplex.
Concernant le meilleur détecteur, cela dépend également beaucoup de vos préférences personnelles. L'excalibur 2 est un excellent détecteur et j'utilise encore un peu le mien, mon détecteur préféré est l'équinox 900 maintenant. Le XP ne me plaît pas beaucoup car ce n'est pas un détecteur d'eau principal et j'ai besoin de l'antenne pour qu'il fonctionne, il dispose d'un système de menu complexe.
Do you have any chatter on the simplex from the salt water ? What setting you have and version . My simplex chatters like crazy
Yes there is some chatter but that depends on the beach. Ground balance when in the water and turn the sensitivity down 1 or 2 notches, That should help. Good luck
Great review, I'm going to order one soon. The lock is a motorcycle disc brake lock.
Hi my friend from Greeksite of island Cyprus.i am your follower.look for more than 3 years I am hunting with my minelab safari.Last Monday I bought The siblex with the new version 2.78.Is really AMAZING.I want to advise you to get it.The reason is you have an extra depth (you will not needed,)You have another park mode that is really very fast and acurate,And the special thing that I notice is that...when hits bottle cups the nrs become crazy.change to low end to high.really believe me.i hunting in very trushy areas.this feture will help you...this way i thimk Deus only have this feture.Best regards my friend..My minelab is resting now...sorry for my English...
ok, thanks
I'm really impressed with this machine in the wet. Once your coil is covered with water have you then ground balanced it to see if it quiets down a little?
Not so far, I did ground balance further up the beach. It was chattering to itself a little, this was quietly and not a distraction. It seems happy at this.
@@SandyToesDetecting - Thanks for sharing an honest and informative first outing and review of the Simplex in the water. I would be interested to know if the detector can auto ground balance in the water and what GB number it can achieve. Perhaps you could manually ground balance to zero and see if that reduces the chattering. I know you were happy with the minor chatter, but it would be interesting to know if this can be reduced. I have subscribed and I'm looking forward to your next outing. Kind Regards Bob
@@TarotBob Hi, yes it does, if I an doing it correctly, I see numbers of 0.2 to 0.4, doing it in water also reduced the chatter to barely anything.
@@TarotBob You had me thinking about this a lot, I have just finished speaking with nokta/makro on ground balance. It turned out I was doing it correctly, just I was not expecting a fraction of a number so the 0.2 or 0.4 etc I was doing is correctly. Performing a GB in water does reduce chatter if you have it even more.
@@SandyToesDetecting I never thought you were doing anything wrong but like you I was surprised to see a decimal value in your first reply. It's good to know that the Simplex can achieve the correct GB value by pumping the coil, from personal experience lots of other detectors will not achieve this using the auto method and require you to set the GB down to zero manually. Your tests have proved that the Simplex will be a good all round detector at an amazingly low price. It will never be the best beach detector, but it will be a great choice for anyone wanting just one detector for land and beach use. Regards Bob.
Tnx for the video! Got myself a simplex truly amazing detector. But one question....Is it neccesary to extra protect the two connectors in the water? I am wondering because the cap of the charger/ headphone connector when you press it tight doesnt seem so water tight to me. I would be worried anyways when detecting under water because of the pressure and swings.. not worried the cap will disconnect?
Well the connector is used with wired headphones so no water can get into that area.
Just wondering why you keep the gravel in the scoop instead of dumping it out after each dig ?
Good question, I keep stuff in there when there is some trash in scoop, rather then taking out rubbish every time I keep it until I have a few things in there and then put rubbish into my keep net. Saves a little time.
Do you need the earphones to make it waterproof? Or does he rubber cap do the job?
The cap seals the socket. You can use bluetooth headphones if the display is not submerged in water. If it is then you need waterproof headphone plug to seal detector.
Greetings!
A few questions, please?
1 - have you done any more beach updates with the Simplex? I've just got one as a first detector and am trying to learn the operations at the beach! (With 2.78)
2 - Loads of Euro cons - where are you based? I'm in ROI
Thanks!
The fact you are picking up our coins is a good sign. The better suff will come in due course as well as loads of trash. Strange year with beaches as so many dont have the number of people on. Good luck.
@@SandyToesDetecting Yep on the loads of trash... my new modus operandi is making beaches safe for the grandkids! 😁😁
hello how does the simplex in salt water behave?
tanks.-)
Hi Dario, its well behaved in the sea, no issues with it.
@@SandyToesDetecting tanks:-)
Settings, settings, settings what setting did you use in the water??? Good video but like so many, NEVER any mention of chosen settings!! Factory or your own??
I use the standard water setting but turn down the sensitivity a notch.
Bonjour en quelle mode vous mettez sur le simplex pour éviter les parasites sur sable mouillé et dans l'eau. MERCI
Bonjour dans ce que je ne suis pas sûr de ce que vous entendez par "parasites" voulez-vous dire des ordures ou des bavardages?
Vous devez réduire la sensibilité.
Également équilibre au sol avant de détecter.
Il y a toujours des déchets sur la plage qui ne peuvent être évités.
@@SandyToesDetecting Merci pour votre réponse, pour les parasites c'est que le simplex sonne tous le temps sur sable mouillé même après avoir fait l'effet de sol.Du coup je vais réduire la sensibilité. 👍👍👍
@@denisgirard4992 Oui,
Réduisez d'une ou deux mesures.
J'aime faire chauffer mon détecteur pour que les petites chaînes puissent être entendues. Le problème est donc de tous les déchets et minéraux.
@@SandyToesDetecting Merci belle journée
Simplex+ very nice 👍👍👍👍
yes
Well done. On the chattery end when you entered the water, does or did turning down the sensitivity help with the noise?
I left it as it was. It was the seaweed
You should ground balance when you're in the sea it will stop the chattering
Yes did that, a lot better but not perfect
Equinox vs Simplex+ in the water?
Your oppinion?
i dont think the equinox is 3 times better because of 3x price. Equinox does suffer from leaks, I know 3 or 4 people directly that have had this. Time will tell on simplex but feeling I have is that they have nailed it. The scale on equinox is too compressed on ID's. Equinox has great screen and pinpointing. Simplex has great screen. Depth about the same as far as I can tell. Maybe a little more chatter from simplex on wet sand but very little in water. If I had to chose one, would be simplex and buy some other toys with the difference.
Thanks for advice, this summer i used Equinox 800, i was very impresed by its performance in the water, found lots of gold and valuable stuff, but i was concerned for water leaks so i installed a silicon gasked in the handle bar, above the battery, and used a silicon case for external protection .
I think the only advantage of Equinox is a Multy IQ, against the Simplex+, but it should not be a big thing in water detecting.
@@samed2604 Yes I think the silicon seal is essential on battery. Shame minelab did not do that bit so well. The outer case be careful the fine sand does not get trapped inside and scratch the body. Main reason I only use my own screen protector. I am not sure if the multiIQ improves things or not. Since you have machine, not sure it would be worth changing unless you need to free up some of your investment.
Looks like it performs pretty well in the salt water.... great hunt mate 👍🏼👍🏼
Cheers, yes seems to work well
Good video...just purchased the same detector. When you detected in the water, what were your sensitivity and mode settings. You appeared to be in All Metal mode but could not see clearly.
The lock is a disc lock to put on the brake disc of a motorbike.
Ok, thanks :-)
I want to ask you a question the simplex is unstable in the sea bone salt water
It should not be, but you need to turn down the sensitivity in salt water.
well done you!! I would have been panicking to start off when the water went over the detector very brave haha brilliant video just put my name down for one of the next batch to come to the uk
watch our vids if you wish gogs go detecting (gogs...grumpy old gits) again well done

Thanks, hopefully you will not have to wait too long. I am a mermaid :-)
what were your settings when you were in the water
beach mode and turns sens. down 1
Finally i have been waiting for someone to take it into the salt water 😁
thanks, was a while ago now :-) Luckily I got one of the first batch of production line last year.
Thanks! Am thinking about getting a Simplex as my beach machine while keeping my AT Pro for relic hunting. Have you found any rings or nice finds yet with the Simplex at the beach?
There is always stuff to find, some days better than others. :-)
hello my friend , i have one question that is very important to me, i hope you can give me an answer, it's my simplex, can i go underwater without supplements, or can i go straight out of the box with it into the water?
YES
@@SandyToesDetecting ok i belive you :)
@@SandyToesDetecting just one more question, in what mode should I work? and if ground balance I have to work also in water, thank you very much.
@@novicacubranovic7945 go into beach mode 2, turn down sensitivity 1 notch. Then do ground balance with coil under water.
@@SandyToesDetecting thanks a lot, I went diving today, everything is fine, just to ask once again, is there a mod beach 2 on simplex, since I only have one mod beach, on firware v2.78?
You are great congratulations and hope you look for more beautiful days
Thanks
How much senstivity that you used under water...because my simplex if im swing to fast reading will come out and also coil hit the ground...
i have been using 3 or 4 bars, depending on sand and any weed in water.
Great video
thanks for watching
Thanks a lot for the video, I'm just starting detecting and I think I will buy the Simplex cause of its price and since I live in the beach I think that's the option for me. I have a question, how do you know when you hit something while the detector is under water. Can you still use headphones? I mean you use the bluetooth right? Thanks a lot for the info. Cheers.
Bluetooth does not work underwater, you can purchase a wired waterproof headphones for detector. Alternatively use vibration settings on handle.
@@SandyToesDetecting Thank you.
Is that headphones adapter waterproof?
I am using hard wired headphone in the water. Using waterproof cable/connector and headphones.
What do you use to hold the camera in your head and what kind of camera?
I initially made a mount on my cap for camera but now you can purchase caps with camera mounts on. I have tried chest mounting but I dont like the camera angle. I use GoPro mainly because of the waterproof ability and the later ones now have voice control. Recently got the hero 9. But be careful if wearing in rough sea to have a tether onto cap to your body as I lost cap and camera a couple years ago with rough wave took me off my feet. Never did find it.
Looking good👍
thanks
On the anfibio bottle caps give u a crack sound
What settings were you using at the time? I know this video was a while ago
Beach then I adjust sensitivity down 1 notch. I did GB as well in water. Detector is lively.
@@SandyToesDetecting Wow ok thank you
Are you based in UK or somewhere else please regarding the beaches?
In mainland europe,
Cool video, just wondering what settings you use for the sea underwater detecting???
Just beach mode and nock down sensitivity a notch.
What kind of depth are you getting in the water?
i was digging targets at least 20cm down
Any leaks so far with simplex?
No
@@SandyToesDetecting good news. I look forward to owning one
To remove the broken signal from the steel core in the coins just up the frequency to 18 khz or higher.
Not sure how you do that on the simplex+. Its fixed frequency at 12khz from what I understand. Only option is a frequency shift to stop interfering with other detectors.
@@SandyToesDetecting yeah
that security lock is not for car windows it's a motorcycle disc lock
Thanks, always wondered what its for. I see the widow locks on cars on dealer forecourts but now you say its for motor bikes, makes more sense.
Saludos desde México excelente vídeo parece ser una excelente maquina estoy esperando que llegue a México para adquirirla
Esperemos que la espera no sea demasiado larga.
Encuentra un montón de tesoros :-)
which is better in saltwater simplex or pulsedive on stick?
Hi, I haven't used a pulse dive but it is a pinpointer with no discrimination, smaller coil and less depth. So simplex would win in any test.
Hi can u tell me which kind of headphones are u using please?
The macro waterproof headphones
How long does its battery work .I’ve got a new detector tomorrow,plz reply back bro
Hours, I think it was about 12 hours use. Charge every couple of outings.
Por favor cual es la configuración?
Solo el ground balance?
@@TESOROS_HUNDIDOS_REVELADOS beach mode, ground balance, adjust sensitivity to about 50-60 %
Sandy Toes Detecting ground balance automatic or manual? If manual what is The correct 00.00 ?
@@rockybalboa_1976 The detector is semi automatic, you have to tell it to GB. The value depends on ground, in salt water is was sub 1, on beach depending how wet it all is under 5 to 15 ish.
Sandy Toes Detecting Thanks for the answer bro

@@SandyToesDetecting sinceramente yo le podría la sensibilidad a 3 o 4 pero buen video
@@deteccionpura5772 Gracias
Simplex is said to be no good underwater. I was going to give up ..

I just bought a used AT pro on eBay 400$.found simplex too late.poopoo
The at pro is not so great in sea water, though very good in lakes/rivers
👍🤝🦈
absolutely :-)
Dont discriminate out bottle caps. Alot of gold rings fall in that range.
Yes that is quite possible depending on the detector.
@@SandyToesDetecting on most detectors if you notch out pull tabs, you will be loosing some gold items. I have run many different brands. Currently running minelab and Nokta.
Agreed, I also use the CTX3030, the bottle caps are in a different zone, though some of the newer bottle caps have started to appear there.
Nice😍😍😍
thanks
What are your settings ??
just beach mode and slightly reduced sensitivity to stop too much chatter
You wanna take this metal detector to kalaa sraghna in Morocco, lot of treasure golden hoard found buried in there and still lot to be digged out.
I here Morocco is quite good.
How do you know a lot are still there to be digged out?
Any answer??.are you Moroccan??
motorcycle disc lock
Could be all sorts of weird things get dug up :-)
I noticed very few females do metal detecting?
Not so many, I know a few but men definitely outnumber the ladies.
@@SandyToesDetecting we be digging up rubish at the beach for hours, any excuse to get away from the wife, 😂
