Nos Da Tony .

[Nuke em]

I hope ( hurry up ) that mine turns up soon then i will be on Eastbourne beach on the sand with it, Brighton no due to the iron levels unless the tide is very low.

Martin has used his on Brighton and said that he has been digging pulltabs at 12+ inches in the sand ! they are the same as rings in a lot of cases.

two best detectors on the market by a long way - blisstool / Deus - the prices are going up on the blisstool soon.
The guy selling the blisstools i have spoken with and he's a top man - really nice chap very helpful - and the machines are priced fairly as you can see - the brains behind the design / development is as good as it gets also.

[Kyle]

Tony - I bet your pleased that people here told you about how good the Blisstool was - you seem to be in awe of its potential - its top notch and your right... priced at 700 pounds makes it a steal if you compare to what some brands want for lesser capable machines.
Im ordering one shortly - has anyone heard if there has been any bugs / problems with any.

Errrr .....it is called a Blisstool & not a CTX 3030 you know
Now my Wit attacks over , the answer is No , to that question.

Very interesting video Tony. It would seem the Blisstool is no joke...and at a price that's right. Would love to have one to play around with for a bit.

[Kyle]

thanks jeb.
the only downside seems to be the lead times - that been said good things come to those who wait.
rockys been waiting a good few weeks for his - but the guy is honest about the delays and people were informed - i think the demand will grow with these and the company is worth keeping an eye on - they are moving to a bigger factory i believe and the guy who designed them seems to be nothing short of an electronic genius - well regarded in the robotic world.

the welsh guy i spoke with - is a really genuine guy and i hope he does well from this product..... he has done much to bring the attention to detectorists and to my mind is integral to its success.

they do have a bug for me however - nothing will be left in the ground for anyone else

[buzzerman]

an interesting point would be that if the blisstool was that good why is it then that the depths that it is achieving are done with a known target buried at a known depth but cannot be replicated out in the field when detecting?.

[Tony Hunt]

What are you on about Mike? you may not have been able to replicate it don't mean to say nobody else can.
What I've seen with me own eyes is good enough for me.

If your out of the UK or US Dave they can be ordered direct from the Blisstool guy in Bulgaria off his website provided theres no distributor in the country you are in of course.

Course if anybody is really kean there are still distributor areas free in some parts of the world, theres a note to that effect on the guys Blisstool website under contact apparently.

Machines will start to come through a lot quicker soon, the guy was completely taken aback by the response in the UK, US and Australia. Stripped his stock of machines right out which is why he has had to expand his production space to cope with the demand.

The price in the UK is going up a couple hundred pounds to its real level in a couple of weeks time. Blisstool UK has been doing a special introductory offer up to now to kick it off and get it out there. It will still be a cheap detector compared to others in its class and for that money you will still get two coils.

Very good post Kyle you hit the nail on the head. Daryn is 100% genuine and passionate about what the Bliss can do. Those people who think he looks sly and untrustworthy couldn't be further from the truth. Everything he's shown on his videos has been completely pukka.

[paul23]

Not sure if I can answer all the questions you guys are raising on here but perhaps if you go over to the Blisstool forum and read my posts and view my videos (Paul23) you will see I am more than pleased with my V3.

I have used other detectors including Xlte, Eric fosters pulse, and excalibur and to be fair the Bliss has not disappointed at all.

Once it locks onto a target there is no way it wants to let it go. I have been primarily a beach hunter for the last few years so will be taking the V3 to the beach, once a little sand moves and the weather improves.

I have done a couple of videos that are all actual targets and not buried or planted. To set my machine up and give me the confidence in using it i would bury a hammered coin or silver sixpence at 9-10" and the 15" coil hits it every time. There is a video of a good sounding target that I dig and recover a piece of iron but don't belive the V3 would fail like that,I go over the hole remove more dirt and find a tight piece of silver foil, yes I know its not a spectacular target but as you know hammered do come in in this range. I had the discrimination on low. None of my other machines hit a good target under/close to iron (Other than the PI)

Daryn and Bob are good guys. I had perhaps the longest wait in the UK for a detector but i was kept informed on progress and at one point Daryn was offering to give me his own detector till mine arrived, how many guys do you know would do that?

I don't belive that the video shown here was done to diss the Deus as this is a fine detector in its own right. It was done to compare the two Bliss coils to each other. Remember these guys are not big shot business men with loads of spin doctors around them they are two guys who love detecting and when Daryn came across the Blisstool he realised how good it was and wanted to share this in the UK so asked to become the UK distributor. Yes i am sure he makes a little money along the way but the amount of grief people have given him and the Blisstool can't be worth it. Without his videos I would not have purchased the V3 he is a great ambassador for our hobby.

If you need any information on the V3 I am no expert but I am impartial. I will not get into a competition with other detectors as each detector has its place. The best detector in the world is one thats going to get you out there detecting!!

What I've seen with me own eyes is good enough for me.

-----as you have said tony i could nowhere near replicate those tests no matter what settings i tried and i also think that there are a few more users or should i say past users of the bliss that have come to the same conclusion its an ok machine but the video's portray the machine to be capable of extreme depths which goes beyond belief for example a gold ring at 19.5" i don't think so.i also understand that you have purchased the new minelab ctx 3030 and that the bliss is just a back up machine to that so if you are so impressed with the bliss surely it would be your no 1 detector and the ctx would be your back up in that order.

Do not want to say too much, as I've just enjoyed a very enjoyable Sunday lunch at two watering holes. Ok 10 pints of Harvey's What has to be said is this; some people have reasons to diss other machines for their own benefits and promote s--t machines for the same reasons. I simply do not believe the vids, so buyer beware!
So anybody owning a bliss, tell us how deep you can air test a very fine gold chain? Simple aye. Who is honest and who bends ze truth?

[marcinch1979]

I know exactly what you mean, I had same problem with f75. when I knew where is a target than ok but in real life I mean field no way.

This is the link to a task that was unable to be achieved by owners of the bliss. Note, Jeb had comments to make too. Now I am completely neutral when detectors are launched, as most, but we have to ask questions of owners, to know the true capabilities the instrumements they use. I am also interesteted as to why Tony Hunt began this thread, when the CTX 30 30 is according to his signature so much better than an E-trac. So many questions, but here is the link I left on the BLisstool Forum http://www.blisstoolukforum.com/post...73473?trail=15

[jeb]

I rekon the simple truth is,with regards to ANY detector, is that no matter how good or bad it comes across, there will always be some one who will have a different out look of it than yourself . It really is that simple. You iether like it ,or don`t like it, and you will never persaude a man who finds he doesn`t like it to like it and vice versa.
A detector can be shown by video to anyone , but no matter what light its shown in there will always be people that will not be persauded to like it because they have convinced themselves its a con before they lay a finger on it.
So I guess the only remaing solution would be to obtain one in some way and try it for yourself. BUT!! what I would say to that is try to find one which the owner can use it profficiently and can show you how to use it correctly , not leave you too it and you not have a clue to how to set it correctly ,or if that does happen your on a bad start straight away, especially with the Blisstool which really does call on ANY past detecting expirience to help you understand how to go about setting it up. If your a complete novice in detecting, the Blisstool could be a bridge to far to cross, and will take a fair amount of coaching to get comfortable with. There have been those who bought it thinking it was going to be a walk in the park to use and found that it was a walk in to hell. It`ll be you`ll iether love it or hate it, with few half measures .

What really sickens me is they find it necessarry to put the Bliss up against other machines and keep going on how good it is compared to them, I have found with several BG machines is they detect disturbed soil so a coin in a freshly dug hole is a recepie for disaster.

Don't get me wrong I am a big fan of BG machines and own some myself but to me these type of tests are always one sided and in my opinion not premoting the product in a professional manner. The Bulgarian forums are full of this head to head rubbish, most of them are ruthless salesmen and do not care who they upset along the way, it is just their culture.

If it is the ultimate machine then it should need no market trader style sales pitches it should speak for itself through respected users. This constant need for reassurance leaves me a little suspicious.

[Kyle]

i think of what ive seen of this blisstool is that its definately an expert piece of kit - it looks daunting with all the knobs and switches - but if i had to describe it - id say what youve got is a laboratory detector - with full control on every parameter enabling peak set up for any given field - so a machine for experts who understand ground types - and know how to balance a machine. ive read the instruction book on these machines and they have set up and go settings -advising which settings to stay between until more experience is gained.

it seems to be impressing the guys it needs too - this machine looks like its onto something special to me.

Oh yes I remember that thread now.
I`m struggling to see your problem with it. Are you stating that the Video was "doctored" in any way ? Don`t you find it strange if what you say you believe in that A guy from South Wales tells you about the Blisstool in Videos and you don`t believe that, and another "few" guys in the United States tells you it does these things and you don`t believe that iether.
So I ask you, do you think its a world wide conspiricy to deceive going on some how?
If it is, there`s an awful lot of people willing to go along with this conspiracy ,and TO GAIN WHAT ? What can anyone have to gain from one side of the world to another by lying . Do you think they are all on the owner of the Blisstool business, Ahmed Merchevs payroll, or some thing ????

[Gold Finger]

Nobody, but nobody was able to detect on wet sand with a blisstool, bar for the vids. Somebody sooo smart said it should be ground balanced on dry sand and then to go down onto the wet sand! Interesting aye! What I have heard is it falses all the time, making users frustrated, to say the least.
And Jeb, you do have a motive to talk this machine up, don't you?
Maybe you can give us a laugh next week, when you try to tell us how good a Maplins machine is.

Do I . ?? well educate me my friend ,and explain , because I havn`t a clue what your on about.

[chriscolle]

It is indeed a bit of a party trick, when you've got the Deus with small coil and high frequency running.
However that blisstool does look like it isn't even trying.

[Gold Finger]

What do you want me to say to a blisstool forum moderator?

[JBM]

Just out of interest our club had a BBQ and token hunt today.

Both copper and iron cored decimals were used and buried in the top 3-6".

All the usual machines were there e-trac x-terras whites etc etc.

The Deus set in Deus Fast found the most tokens in fact it was hoovering them up.

Its horses for course and settings to suit the type of hunt.

All the old hands know the statistics with average depths for finds and you dont need to be going to far down to be successful. Jerry.
