Manticore Green Light Flashing While Charging And Not Going Solid

[Pete e]

I have heard of similar battery issues on the Manti which is a bit concerning.

To try and avoid these issues, I have a small power bank fitted under the arm rest of my Manti and have it connected every time I use it ..

The battery on the detector stays fully charged, while the power bank runs down ..At the end of the session, the detector is fully charged, and just the power bank needs unplugging from the Manti and then charging.

I am hoping this approach will increase the battery life on the Manti...

I looked all over your site first, but didn't see them listed.

The link to it was on that post. Here it is again just in case. https://bigboyshobbies.net/minelab-li-ion-battery-for-manticore

Xp pinpointer mount works good on Manticore with cylindrical shaped external battery. I use one.

I had a problem with charging my manticore once. It wasn't dirty contacts, but the connector just wasn't seated well. It didn't make sense to me but after charging overnight, the light was still flashing. I took the connector off and put it back on, and it finished charging in a couple hours. It never did anything like that again, but I also make sure it's seated well. Glad to hear you got your situation sorted out tho.

Yes. And since I usually go out all day 6-8 hrs., run my sens high at 28, use the speaker turned up a bit processing a lot of targets. I sometimes run out of juice and have to go backup.
