[QUOTE="ronniecruisin, post: 549622, member: 3543"] Yes. I agree. I've been involved in some detector manufacture and there's nothing wrong re batt contacts being silver or copper. Fisher could have used both over the years. They are not a critical component. As to the logo mine is not as well printed as I would've expected. Tis a frac smudgee in a couple of places and as I said re the German Video where they are discussing the slop in the tube that was a red flag for me and I can tell you upon close examination the black tube reduction join where it slots into the gold tube is a loose fit from manufacture. The tube diameter sizes are not accurate enough and could not possibly pull up tight enough. A real Fisher would have been perfect. One other thing I found interesting though if you study the German video and read the body language of the two testers it seems to me they are agreeing that performance wise there is not much difference if any between the two machines. It's easier in the Russian vid as he basically says the same thing outright. Personally I'm finding mine very good from that point of view. Just wish it was a frac more stable re threshold. What do you think my idea if a Real Fisher coil was used??? Might be an improvement.???? Just thinking that may be an area the Chinese haven't got right.! [/QUOTE]
