    as promised...
    i was hunting 2 hours with the 18650s power bank and the detector was too stabile.
    have to check it on full hunting day.

      i also did add a cable with jack to a charger... remade AC pins to our euro standart...
      so the power bank is charging throught-housing now, not taking the cells out.

        Thanks for this mod KT, i will definitely try it. I’ve got an sov gt using one pack ni-mh battery. What is strange is that when charging voltage in the battery output is rising more than 12V. It is possible that the charging module is defective and overcharge the cells? I saw that other sovereign are using 12V charger. Mine is 15V.

          IM certainly ML must answer you, not me. main rule in electronics is DIRECTION of the current. so if you take the voltage ABOVE you
          get RIGHT direction, if less you get WRONG direction.
          what you see in the pack. 10 (TEN) pcs cells. NOT 8 PCS. its meant 10x1.3 13V in full charged state.
          charging module is defective if you see 12V after charging time BECAUSE 10x1.3 is 13 V and above...... 13.8... some people will say they get 14...
          with working ML accubat holder you do not need my mod.
