[QUOTE="Imadogman, post: 621026, member: 813"] I picked up a Pro Alloy gold tester a couple of years ago, and used it a few times to buy some scrap. Now when I try to use the 'wand' I find that it has dried out. Minelab no longer supply the consumable wand for the KS-509GM and had no knowledge or interest in helping to locate a supplier of the wand. KEE now does a M-509GM for about $500. So moral of the story is to be wary buying gold testers. Seems they are like mobile phones,. You can get screwed next time the new model comes out. On the off chance someone has a replacement want for the KS-509 GM which was marketed and sold by Minelab as the Pro Alloy tester, please let me know. [/QUOTE]
