Some comments on the new Makro KRUZER series. January 25, 2018 05:18PM |

Carl, I generally agree with perhaps the most savvy engineer in this business, but we have to take in all the manufacturer's design offerings as well as the terminology we all use. We have had models that operated using two frequencies, but were they actually 'simultaneous?' No, not all them.Quote
Geotech
Regardless of what Cambridge might have to say, in metal detector-land the term "multifrequency" has been defined to mean multiple frequencies at the same time. Selectable-frequency detectors have been around for a very long time and have never been marketed as "multifrequency," even by the King of Marketing Nonsense. Hopefully Makro will reconsider their selection of terminology.
Just things we all need to sort out I guess.Quote

Agreed. Now we will always have to specify "simultaneous MF" or "select-able MF".
Yes, they are very versatile detectors, and I have and use several in my personal detector battery. One Impact, two Relic, two CoRe and one Racer 2 make up part of my working 'team' from Nokta & Makro and the only TID competitor's units on that 'team' are my two White's MX-7's. I don't use 'had' in my description because all of these detectors and the group of search coils I have for them work wonderfully for me in all the places I like to hunt, which most of the time means dealing with intense iron debris.Quote

I like Nok/Mak machines. Very capable machines. I've had three of them.
None better, to be sure!Quote

I like the way Nok/Mak listens to their customers. Great company.
Dean, I don't believe they did that. I also don't think a waterproof detector should be an "industry standard" but I do like the fact that a manufacturer can bring a worthwhile waterproof detector to market as a 'part' of their product line. Not necessarily as a key component since most people do not hunt in a drenching rain or wade or work shallow water areas. I also think it common for a manufacturer to use certain search modes and adjustment features that they feel are valuable components of any detector model and have proven to be just that in the industry in general, and specifically with their own product line.Quote
badi1
But, waterproofing their already existing line of detectors is good but falls short (I think waterproof detectors should have been an industry standard for years now). They have just repackaged their old tech.... waterproof Impact/Gold Racer.
I am sure that the Kruzer will become a main-use detector for some people already enjoying a Racer or Racer 2 or Nokta model, but I am also positive that 'obsolete' will be a good fit in some descriptions. Things like: "This new Kruzer has so much to offer that it obsoletes any and all waterproof detectors I have." "Guess I need to dump them and step up to Real Performance!" Time will tell but I see good things coming our way, and in a month Kruzer's will be in consumer's hands to learn and enjoy.Quote
badi1
These "new" waterproof units will, no doubt, "obsolete" the old non-waterproof units (Oh, come on! That was funny!).
I don't feel I missed the mark. If and when Minelab gets their Equinox figured out and finally in production, there's no doubt that we'll see one used along side a Kruzer and hear the opinions of those who check them out.Quote
badi1
Considering what Minelab is launching in the Equinox, both select-able AND simultaneous MF in a waterproof package, this misses the mark IMO. Now, when Nok/Mak comes out with a true MF or a PI unit I'm all in!
