More Battery Power. Longer Hunts. Less Downtime!
There's nothing more frustrating than getting into a productive detecting area and seeing your metal detector's battery running low.
The RNB Innovations PWR-PLEX External Battery Pack gives owners of the original Nokta Makro Simplex+ an additional rechargeable power source for extended metal detecting adventures.
Available in two capacities—the PWR-PLEX 3000 and PWR-PLEX 6000—these battery packs are designed to keep you detecting longer without relying solely on the detector's internal rechargeable battery.
Whether you're searching an old homestead, exploring acres of farmland, hunting coins in a park, or spending the weekend at a metal detecting event, the PWR-PLEX is a practical addition to your equipment.
A great choice for detectorists who want additional operating time without carrying a larger battery pack.
Manufacturer-advertised runtime: Approximately 10–12 hours on a full charge.
Ideal for:
Everyday coin and jewelry hunting
Afternoon and evening detecting sessions
Backup power during longer hunts
Detectorists who prefer a smaller-capacity option
For detectorists who spend entire days searching fields, beaches, and historic locations, the higher-capacity PWR-PLEX 6000 provides approximately twice the advertised runtime of the 3000.
Manufacturer-advertised runtime: Approximately 20–24 hours on a full charge.
Ideal for:
All-day detecting trips
Weekend treasure-hunting outings
Large properties and farm fields
Remote detecting locations
Metal detecting rallies and organized hunts
Actual operating time depends on detector settings, battery condition, accessories, and environmental conditions.
Extended Detecting Time: Supplement your Simplex+'s internal rechargeable battery.
Two Capacity Options: Choose the 3000 or 6000 based on your detecting needs.
Designed for the Original Simplex+: Intended for use with the Nokta Makro Simplex+ metal detector.
Rechargeable Power: Convenient for repeated detecting trips.
5V Output: Designed to supply power compatible with the original Simplex+'s charging requirements.
Weather-Resistant Design: Advertised with an IPX6 water-resistance rating.
Great Backup Power: Useful when hunting away from convenient charging locations.
Imagine spending hours researching an old farmhouse, forgotten picnic grove, or historic settlement.
You finally get permission to detect the property, and the signals start getting interesting.
The last thing you want is to cut the hunt short because your battery is running low.
With an RNB PWR-PLEX battery pack, you have an additional power source ready for longer sessions.
For serious relic hunters and coin shooters, extended battery power can be especially valuable when access to a promising location is limited.

Compatibility with the newer Nokta Simplex LITE, BT, and ULTRA models has not been confirmed.
This product is an external battery pack, not a replacement for the detector's internal battery.
Although the PWR-PLEX battery pack is advertised as water-resistant, do not submerge the detector while it is connected to an external power bank.
