Paid for itself a thousand times over!!!
The Dime Man in Lincoln, NE -
I purchased a used Whites Eagle II SL Metal Detector 13 years ago back in 1996. I have used it for at least a thousand hours since then. I have never had any problems with it. It has paid for itself time and time again with all of the great finds I have made with it. I have owned several other detectors and eventually sold them all because this machine simply cannot be beat. It goes deep, it is extremely accurate (in all types of soil), and it is extremely reliable. What more can you ask for? The technology of this detector was years ahead of its time way back in 1990 when it was first introduced. The way I see it, it is still ahead of its time. It is super easy for a beginner to use with its pre-set programs (which I still use 95% of the time), and it has a multitude of adjustable settings you can make the more familiar you become with it.
The bottom line is you will definatley not be disappointed with the Whites Eagle II SL.
**Good luck hunting**

My First Machine Was An Eagle II SL
Wes in Milton, FL -My very first machine was an Eagle II SL. I learned the machine, including the advanced adjustments, and could run it wide open in all but the worst conditions. It was a deep seeking, stable machine, and the pin pointing was dead on accurate. From the tone and numeric display I could tell the difference between a clad penny, a wheat, and zinc. With 99% accuracy I could tell what was in the ground before digging. I spent a tremendous amount of time with this detector, and part of the reason was it made me want to go detecting because it always rewarded me with some goodies.
I have used some Garrett's, White's Spectrum's, Minelabs, etc., and the machine I enjoy most is still that old Eagle. I own a Minelab Explorer ES now, and an Eagle II SL, and I still like the Eagle better. It doesn't go as deep as the Minelab, but I understand the Eagle, and I always know exactly what it's saying when it talks to me. After ayear and a half I'm still learning the Explorer.
If I had to pick only machine to be the only one for the rest of my life, it would be a Whites Eagle II SL.

Eagle 2 SL 90.5 ahead of its time
Paul in West Virgina -I have been detecting for almost 30 years and still go back to the Eagle 2.I dont like the 5 touch pads on the XLT or DFX.I much prefer the 14 touch pads on the Eagle 2 and easer to set the adjustments than having to go through a menu to get to each setting.I make a decale on the bottom of the box that tells all the pads do when trigger is pulled or Edit is pressed.Makes it simple.If the Eagle would come out today it would soon be no#1 in sales.Sometimes newer isn't better. :>)

Eagle II SL. Great 15 year old machine!
Ron in Tampa, FL -I bought my Eagle II SL last year off eBay and have "really" enjoyed it. I use it much more than my MXT. It's really an amazing detector. Ron, Tampa, FL
