Hi Anthony & welcome to the forum. Likewise I started out with the 2100 & a few tips from Peter[Nightjar] managed to find some gold. It is a very good machine to those operators who know how to use it to its full potential. You will find some good info here on the 4500 as most of us members here have one. Hope to hear of your future exploits & happy swinging. |

Welcome to the forum Anthony, feel sure you'll find your WA needs here. The 4500 is certainly a proven machine although it takes a little longer to get the maximum results, usually pick up a few new hints every season. As Ted mentioned am interested in hearing about your exploits to date and the future. Good luck |

yes topcat i had good sucsess with 2100 and realy got me hooked ,the only downer was that green 20kilo 18mono which i found zero with ,modern coils are so light as i said my fav is the 14coiltek goldstalker, unless in grass or twigs, i have a mate with 5000 he calls it the dryblower but i can still hear his targets be long long time before a upgrade .cheers |
