EQUINOX: How to replace the battery | Minelab Metal Detectors 

Spoke with Debbie Smikoski regarding the Equinox 800 not holding a charge. She said I had to send my machine in (wrong!). She said it was hard to replace the battery (wrong!). Thank goodness for this video!

Minelab I'm glad you exist. Best detector I've ever had by far. I was nervous about how to replace the battery when it failed but this is cake.

Very useful video and removes the myth of complexity

That's some intense music for a battery swap.

Ter cuidado pra na hora de colocar a bateria no local não estourar o auto falante. .. e que essa vedação ou seja a tampa do compartimento da bateria, ela comprime o ar levando o cone do falante...

My Fivepenny worth of advice (this is not covered in the video) is that with the New Battery comes 2 sticky pads. - one is circular and goes on the outer end of the NEW battery (Peel and stick and slide it into the black end cap and the other is affixed to the side of the battery (presumably to stop the battery slopping around in the cylinder. The discarded battery will have these pads already in place to confirm to you where they go. LAST piece of advice is to take down the details of your NEW Battery (date, serial number to save you having to dismatle it all at a later date should a warranty claim need to be made - I'm told there is only 6 months warranty on the battery.

Hi, where can I purchase the Equinox 800 batteries please.

how much does the new battery cost.

Where can I purchase a spare control unit? We just flooded one of our 800’s in approximately 1 foot of water. We plan to send it in for warrantee replacement, as it is only a few months old but we need a control unit while we wait for it to be returned.

Great information!!!! Thanks for sharing!!

Where can we get replacement batteries from?

Great Video

Thank you for the info!

What is in the tube?

Please teach us how to make the CPU Waterproof!!!

Thanks for that great video!! I’am relieved :-) Gregg, Boise Id

Thank you! :)

I like the Equinox even more than I did before

Is it safe to charge my Equinox 900 via my home pc usb?

Tools Needed? Small Allen wrench and a small Phillips screwdriver 🪛 on battery 🔋 cover...?

The smaller allen wrench to remove the single internal battery set screw, what size is that???? Cant find anything to fit

Please make it available to the public so we can buy the batteries and not have to send it in every year!

If you’re traveling. Can you take your metal detector aboard a plane because of the battery?

Does it work if I put a battery of the same voltage but with more milliamps? So I could have more hours of use,,,Help 🙏🙏

No . The battery is glued in at top. Haven't found a way of getting it out yet.

You guys need to update the equinox software...i been using the 6 inch coil for a long time , and the ID's in real world use ARE TERRIBLE... and everyone i know agree..ive been seeing semi deep (4 to 6 inch) u.s pulltabs hitting 30 on a rwgular basis..if you wanna keep conpeting with the nokta makro machine co ing out..you guys better give the 600 all the same frequency options or nobody is gonna by them after the new makro is released ..and they dont drown like the equinox either

How bout tell me why i cant find a battery for the nox on the ml site?

What’s the stuff in the tube for?

Is that a special glue or something ?

how come its not as easy as changing the battery in the gold monster

That was easy ☠️

Спасибо,но в России за это пропадает гарантия!!....(((

Но это лучше в сервис-центре

Where are the machines that have been paid for by US customers at a price tag of $1600 each. We deserve an answer. This not only is completely rude but as for a business approach absolutely disgraceful and borderline misrepresentation of facts. You have no machines for the money you have taken from Your customers. If this is the image Your portraying I would think that any decent company would run for the hills to get away from the stigma. Get it together and get the machines out. I will wait until Friday 12/30/2022 and I will be canceling all orders and move on. I don't care what You think of what I'm saying. Someone needs to put this in perspective. You are basically screwing everyone for the back ordered products. You came out with the Manticore then could not fulfill it why? Then throw out some gizmos on the 700 and 900 to distract from the Manticore? What the hell is going on with this company? 2 days and I drop this identical narrative all over the place.
