T2 versus F70

Is there enough difference between the Teknetics T2 and the Fisher F70 to justify the purchase of the T2 if you already have an F70? Is the TZ easier to use? Thanks in advance.

Along these lines, I have a question also. On the detech website, comparing many detectors in air tests, the T2 is deeper than the f75 on all different targets. Tom, what are your thoughts ? TIA

Coinseeker: Are you considering the standard T2 or the SE (higher spec) version?
Possum. I'm sure this has come up before - the Detech tests are done with the machines in Factory default settings, which are rather tame (for both machines) and presumably more-so for the F75. I suspect disc setting is the main reason for the differences.

If you already have a F70...... you would gain nearly nothing with the T2. In fact...... the F70 (in most cases) is slightly deeper than a standard T2.

When T2 and F75 are both set up for maximum performance....... the flagship F75 is the trump card.

Thanks Tom. I am talking about the T2 SE. is there enough advantage to consider it in regards to my F70?

The T2 SE levels the playing field a bit more.......... and in some cases........ would be a slight winner........... but not enough to quantify/justify the jump.

Word to the wise be carefull when buying a T2 their are Chinese copy's selling on Ebay. Ask the Seller 2 questions ask about the 5 year Warranty and if it comes in a Fisher Box. That is if it's suppose to be new.
I have had a F70 and I now poses 2 T2 (made by Fisher) I liked the F70 because it would retain a saved program, the T2 does not. I like the T2 because my main machine has been the G2 and the Vdi numbers are almost identical.
If any one is interested I will sell one of my T2's standard version for $450 plus shipping comes with the DD Coil. I also have a CZ3d serial number 12112733 Made in El Paso,Tx for $450.00 Pus shipping, or trade both for a Etrac. Pm if your interested.

Sent you a PM Greg
