Batteries

Excalibur detectors are all supplied with a battery pod which contains a

rechargeable battery pack.

Under most circumstances the battery pack can be used and recharged without

ever removing it from the battery pod.

Extra battery pods are available for purchase from your Minelab dealer and can

be carried while detecting, thus ensuring that no loss of detecting time occurs if

your battery goes flat.

NOTE:

Spare battery pods should not be taken underwater as they will discharge and

the battery terminals will corrode.

When the battery pod has reached the point at which it will no longer operate

the Excalibur, threshold instability will occur and it is recommended that the

battery pod be recharged or changed to avoid missing targets.

Charging the Batteries

a) To recharge the battery, unplug and remove the battery pod from the main

shaft and connect it to the charger, using the supplied adaptor.

b) Plug the charger into the power socket and leave charging for 12–14 hours.

c) Before using your Excalibur for the first time, you should charge the

battery for 12–14 hours in order to ensure peak performance in the field.

d) It is not necessary to completely discharge or flatten the battery every time

before recharging. However, we do recommend that this is done

periodically to prolong battery life.

e) A fully charged battery pod should provide you with 10–15 hours of

detecting time.
