Coin Shooting, Beach And Relic Hunting; Battery Replacement - Fisher Gold Bug 2 Operating Manual

COIN SHOOTING, BEACH AND RELIC HUNTING

There's no reason why you can't use your Gold Bug-2 for "coin-
shooting" in parks, relic hunting old town sites or hunting on the
beach. True, the Gold Bug-2 was designed for prospecting, but
it's also suitable for Treasure Hunting. Like most coin-shooting and
relic hunting machines, the Gold Bug-2's iron discrimination mode
can be used to filter out trash targets in areas where relics and
coins are normally found.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

Two 9V transistor batteries are located in separate
compartments at the rear of the Gold Bug-2 control housing.
We recommend using name-brand alkaline batteries, which
usually give 25-35 hours of life. Lithium batteries may last twice as
long but cost more than twice as much. Nickel cadmium
rechargeables give out after about 7 hours. Carbon-zinc batteries
may last half as long as alkalines, at best.
