[QUOTE="Hookka, post: 462984, member: 14150"] Well I found a used 5k for a price that was pretty awesome. I couldn't find anything close to it and there was one available. I could do the Zed but it was so much cheaper than even the cheapest used Zed or even any other used 5k's. It's pretty scratched up but I can't complain about that. It's working so the marks seem to be superficial and atleast I'll be on a continent where getting it repaired/serviced can be done on the same one. This is probably the better choice, I've never prospected before besides some panning. I live to dig though so I don't think me not liking it will be an issue. Any reccomended coils that people favor, or should I just stick to the stock in the beginning? Also so I understand there are mods to improve the battery, give it an amp, and some other stuff that has me interested I spent quite a bit less than I was willing to so would like to kit it up if it will make my time swinging more enjoyable. Thanks for the inputs guys, I really liked the sdc as a candidate also cause it's waterproof and having a deep seeker PI for the beach sounded nice. Can't wait to give it a shot! [/QUOTE]
