Minelab Equinox 800 Waterproof Metal Detector

Minelab has become the metal detector of choice for serious relic and treasure hunters. The Equinox 800 is a robust, fully submersible, lightweight detector offering Minelab’s Multi-IQ detection engine. Multi-IQ revolutionized metal detectors by combining the search capabilities of multiple detectors into one. Multi-IQ works by utilizing multiple detection frequencies at the same time to identify targets in salty, mineralized or trashy soil. No more carrying multiple detectors or wondering what you missed because your detector only focuses on one target type. The Equinox 800 is ideal for detecting on beaches, along river banks, lake shores or out in the field.

The Equinox performs extremely well in all environments. The Equinox can be submerged in up to 10 feet of water and offers great detection even in salt water. Multi-IQ technology allows you to identify targets with confidence so you spend less time digging trash and more time digging treasure.

High Plains Prospectors offers all the gear you need for your next metal detecting adventure including coil covers, search coils, carbon fiber shafts, finds bags, sand scoops, shovels, and books.

Once you have an Equinox 800, you’ll find that old ground that has been searched for years can hold new treasures which no one has been able to detect before.

The Minelab Equinox 800 redefines the all-purpose metal detector for serious detectorists. The Equinox is adaptable for all ground types and all target types. The Equinox is a formidable gold detector with a specific “gold mode” to help you find those elusive nuggets.

With the added functionality of gold mode, high frequency 20/40 kHz., wireless audio accessories and advanced settings, the EQUINOX 800 offers extra versatility.
