or maybe they release them not quite perfect so they can sell you another a few months later

How much does it weigh?

Correct... because perfection is impossible to achieve with any product and/or service in the world... as a company we try our best to build upon customer feedbacks and apply them in the next model available...
please think for a second...did we not know our Impact sales would get affected when we released the Kruzer? Of course we did... I am sure you know me by now..I am the VP of Sales &Marketing..if you think I am not clever enough to anticipate what will happen after a release, you are wrong... why would we not want to sell a more expensive product? Answer is simple.... this company is not all about money ... hard to believe in today's world but it is the truth....beyond making money, there is a whole pride factor in our motivation as a team... thank you.

Makro Multi Kruzer 5/14/19 kHz
Notka Amphibio 5/14/20 kHz

Which one do you buy?

Is the battery in the armrest where it belongs?

Is the simultaneous multi frequency or multiple selectable frequencies?

Need more info on the Anfibio to make an informed decision. Don't think the 1kHz difference factors into the equation (matter of fact the Impact, Kruzer and Anfibio can all use the same coils, although it may not be sanctioned to use an Impact coil on the Kruzer and Anfibio ), but what else does the Anfibio bring to the table? It looks like the Anfibio has more search modes akin to the Impact, but having had the Impact, I typically only used a few of the search modes, and the same modes were incorporated into the Multi Kruzer. IMO it really depends on your needs?

I think you have the Picture backwards Dilek on the 14 and 19 Anfibio.

The screen layout in your Fibio 14 picture is of the 19 and Vice versa

Unless the production models were changed??

THANK YOU! I will get it fixed in the morning... my web team must have gotten them mixed up...

All things being equal I would much rather have a detector company aggressively develop and launch new products than wait years and years to get a new machine released.
Still enjoying my FORS Relic that I bought several years ago after reading Keith and Monte's posts, and I continue watching what is being released with great interest.
If the unit you have is bringing in good finds you have the luxury of using it until the next great thing sets you on fire.
Would really like a trigger type pinpoint switch though
Just saying.....

Glad to hear you are still using and enjoying the excellent FORS Relic! I admire what the Racer 2 and Impact and Multi-Kruzer and now an Anfibio can do ... but my CoRe and Relic will always be with me in my detefcting travels regardless of any other make or model I have or that might come along in the future.

Matter of fact, whenever I get any detector in my hands to evaluate or just try-it-out, I have four different detectors that I use for side-by-side comparisons, and two of those are the CoRe and Relic. Wonderful, well-built detectors as are all the Nokta / Makro devices.

How much does it weigh?

You don't have to buy every new detector that comes along, if what you have works, great, if you're itching for new and improved, look no further

Hi Calabash,
3.9 lbs. per the specs, with the stock coil and 4 AA batteries.
Unit definitely feels lighter than that due to very good weight distribution / balance.

So it's heavier then the Multi Kruzer by a pound, wonder why??

AA's batteries, the Nokta page shows them with built-in LIPO rechargeable batteries???

Hi Cal,

Mine is a couple years old now 2016 vintage, batts may be LiPo now, don't know. Mine came with and uses 4 AA batts.
As to weight Relic is built on the FORS platform, an older gen machine, totally different design to Kruzer series.
Cheers,
Drew.

I believe he was asking about the weight of the Anfibio.

We will have to see what the Anfibio can do when hunters that own the Impact and the Kruzer can tell us what the difference is. Not from first time users or testers that have not used the other detectors in their line. I loved the first racer and thought the second one added some bells and whistles that were a good step forward but didn't make it a better machine than the first racer.
I have read some users that like the Kruzer better than the impact but now we have to see what this new Anfibio brings to the table. I don't think sales will be all that great with it being released so close to the Kruzer and a lot of hunters went ahead and got the nox 600 and 800. I would think their sales went through the roof. Though they have had some issues and I would think if they release a new update to the 600-800 they may fix some of the problems that last update didn't seem to fix from what I have read. I know a lot of hunters in the East Coast that I have hunted with are teaming up the deus and the 800 and finding it to be a one two punch. The important thing is even a new and somewhat improved version means nothing unless you have the skill to find relics. It is the one swing tone or the iron and mixed tone or hunting in iron and waiting for a high tone to hit. That is what the hobby is about for us hardcore hunters. Finding what other missed and saving the history so we can have some of our history in our cases to look at and admire.

Hi Drew, Sorry thought you were referring to the Anfibio.

No answer to my question?

Which ever platform you prefer - it seems to be a sticking point with many -

Nokta / Makro simply cater for both -

Will the Anfibio 11 coil be available to use on an Impact?

It’s selectable. They said they’re developing the simultaneous one now, to be packaged in their new beginner detectors body.

I was going to say the same thing, Keith, but you beat me to it. <g>

I like the overall look and build of that one better than the Multi Kruzer. But I have NEVER been a fan of the S rod design detectors either so. Lighted key pad buttons too...woo hoo, and no twist cam locks. That sounds like most all my minor complaints about the Multi Kruzer have been addressed.

Will the current waterproof Kruzer headphones work on the Anfibio?

I love my Kruzer so far! I really have no gripes about it and still coming to grips on all the customization options. I do want one of those 11" round DD coils though, when they come out on the market!
