    Thanks.
    I haven't made a video of Voodoo in operation, as I don't have good enough equipment to do that.
    Here's a photo of the complete detector.

          "Voodoo Project..." ?
          Why "Voodoo" George?
          Is it for real as described in quotes?
          Fully functional and with accurate discrimination and ground balance?
          Obviously mcu based, which one? Microchip i assume?
          Source code inside the book?
          Suitable for diy?
          ...
          You know... it's the "Voodoo" term that confuses me.

          Anyway i'll see to order one for me.

            BTW any sort of video would help.
            You don't need "equipment".
            Put it on table and record few seconds of how it is working.
            With your phone.
            Unnecessary intrigue for such affordable price.
            I don't know how much Amazon will charge for shipping to here.
            But $15.33 is fair and affordable.

                The search for a PI detector that can discriminate against ferrous targets is like "black magic", so I chose "Voodoo".
                It was almost called "Chimera", which arguably may have been more appropriate.

                Voodoo is PIC-based, and source code is included.
                If anyone is interested I can post the Gerber files, and ask Silverdog if he would like to add some PCBs to his online shop.
                The design is through-hole to make it easier for DIYers.

                  Exactly that's how you put the end on any eventual good "product".
                  Just give it to Amazon, Ebay or any similar criminals!
                  ...
                  With deepest possible regrets i have to say that i will not buy this book under these conditions that totally offends my common sense.
                  Not that i don't have money to pay that sum. But i refuse to pay it to those thieves.
                  ...
                  For exactly the same reason i gave up from selling my magnetometer over Ebay.
                  But this is even greater robbery than Ebay!
                  ...
                  George we know each others here on forum, enough to have at least some trust.
                  It is better if you sell your book by individual orders.
                  And look up for the cheapest shipment offers.
                  ...
                  Is this due covid19 or brexit?
                  This shipping madness!

                        I can't manage.
                        Amazon.de gives me only price. Not shipment.
                        I am so illiterate now!!!

                              I also tried now Italy and France, same as Germany; "auf lager".
                              Not giving me shipment costs nor i am sure if they would send it to Serbia anyway.
                              This is very ugly world that we are living in.
                              I am very interested to see what you "cooked" there George... but unfortunately there is no way me to get it easy here.
                              I'll have to wait others to do it and post videos.

                              ...
                              BTW from all this shipment confusion i totally forgot to CONGRATULATE You on new book!
                              I am very glad to see that you did something!
                              Sneaky you.. you one sneaky... you!! So silent lately!
                              Not even a word on forum about this to announce it so far!


                              CONGRATULATIONS!
