Do you have a backup detector, mate? Even though you never, ever intend for your detector to break down, things do happen. It's always great to have a backup machine that pleases you. For that "just in case" moment.
A guy I used to hunt with backed his car up with his detector leaning against it. He was just moving it back around 6 inches or so. He thought. It fell under the rear tire and got "a bit flattened" by the experience. Off to Garrett it went and they charged him all of $38.00 to replace the case and stem (older metal case). The electronics survived! Imagine that!
But his Fisher (forgot the model) came in handy while he was waiting for the verdict from Garrett.
Another fellow I knew had his car stolen with his best detector in the trunk! Like a true treasure hunter, he was more worried about his metal detector than about his car. The car was insured so it was a no brainer for him. They found the car two weeks later with the detector still in the trunk in perfect condition but his backup machine kept him going for those two weeks.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.
