So on occasion I need a machine that can go deeper than the 10ft. I use my Excal a lot in swimming holes just in water to my chin, but I actually dive with it too. Their also making a lot of machines now that can go in water to 10ft. As long as you don't get control box wet your good. There are a lot of machines/most that you can run the coils in the water. But I don't think they do it or you think it would be an option when a person first buys the machine. I'm going to ask about the mode for using different head phones. The service center will call when they get my machine. There are some after market modes for the Excal and I think gray ghost is one of them, but I think they can't go underwater. Most people consider them kinda low ball part of the machine and change them out. My head phones are married to the machine on the Excalibur making them submersible, think they are Koss. What kind of headphones do you use?Of heard they can get broken wires.I just got a pair of Gray ghost originals yesterday.Gonna try them out tomorrow. he would set off the walk through about 50% of the time going through air ports when he did, he would drop his pants to his shorts show the huge scars tell them he had 2 artificial hips and on he would go. he didn't even remember he still had the multi tool on his belt till he was on the plane. To give you all a better Idea how bad air port security was pre 9/11 a friend with 2 artificial hips with a Gerber multi tool on his belt walked right through the walk through at the Las Vegas air port.
Interesting that one joint is now setting of a walk through at a brewers game. Can get all messed up with false signals trying to work under power lines too. Now most time I have the coil way out in front of me. Even when I wade now I drag my big sand scoop behind me so don't read off it. That I would sometimes pick up the steel shanks in my boots, or believe it or not my big brass belt buckle. Then I realized I was keeping the coil so close in front of me. When I first started detecting many years ago now I would sometime get weird signal that came, went couldn't find. Got wand scanned going into the Brewers game after setting off the walk threw. I can't ask for more than that at this point.Yes it will can even get right on it with the pin pointer LOL. I find it hard to believe that the Kuman is just as good as the Garrett, but it's certainly good enough for me at this very early stage in my digging adventures! It tells me whether the target is in the plug or where it is in the hole. It was a reasonable price and had decent reviews on Amazon. I'm not so sure about that because, even though I'm a newbie, I never thought this was a generic version of the Garrett. He stated very directly that he thought the Kuman was intentionally made to deceive people into thinking it was a Garrett-or at least just like a Garrett. I certainly can't speak to the durability, but the guy on the video seemed to think the externals of the Kuman seemed very sturdy, but he had serious doubts about the operating "guts" of the unit. I get the impression that he only tried it out for a short time also. I've only used it for about one hour but had nothing like that happen to me. The video said that the Kuman had a tendency to just start signaling even in mid-air with nothing around OR if the tip was coated with dirt/mud.
