Excalibur 800 dream machine.

Just so easy to use. I don't mind the weight that seems to bother others. Great depth, perfect pinpoint. The one and only problem I have had (and I assume everyone does), is pull tabs and other aluminum gives such a nice tone. I have been using this machine for about 3 years and am amazed by the sensitivity. Also with practice the tone variation lets me guess the target 80% of the time. So far it is maintenance free and I use it in fresh and salt and on the beach. A Classic!

Excalibur 800 with the WOT Coil
Vern in Southern California, USA -This is my first water detector. I was suprised how deep this MD goes. I have a WOT coil mounted on it w/ the 8" coil as a back up to work the rocky areas of the beach. With the WOT, I can cover alot of area and gets great deepth. I have the waist belt set up to eliminate the weight issue. The dealer said the trick to the waist belt was to use a bungee cord around the shaft to the belt, this prevents the excess tension in the wiring.

Excalibur 800
William Lee in USA -I have used several water detectors over the last few years but keep comming back to the Excalibur 800.
It is very stable in fresh or salt water, sensitive to small targets, and has great depth. A bit heavy for land use but it is THE detector of choice for water hunting.

I really enjoyed learning how to use this machine. I didn't ever have any problems with it. My only complaint is that it is too heavy, so we modified it by attaching the control module to the underside of the armrest. Worked out great.
It also doesn't seem to go deep enough in water, but I never tried the larger coil that came with it. Never had any problem with the wiring like other people complain about.
