Announcing the May, 2002 Time Ranger upgrade:
Dear Bounty Hunter visitor:
First Texas Products LP (Bounty Hunter Metal Detectors) is constantly striving to improve our products to meet the demands of our customers. We have made some changes to our Land Ranger and Time Ranger models that will be shipping this month. Currently, these two models operate using two 9-volt batteries. Effective immediately, we will be producing the Land Ranger and the Time Ranger to operate using two C-cell batteries. This product improvement will add about twice as much battery life to the machine and the C-cell batteries are about half the cost of the 9-volt batteries. If you currently have a Land Ranger or Time Ranger detector and you would like to take advantage of this product improvement, an upgrade is available to you at a minimal cost of $30. Please contact us if you are interested. If you have questions or need further information about this change, you may email us or call 1-800-444-5994.
TIA

Version 3 uses dual C-cell batteries instead of two 9-volt Alkalines, apparently this version was short-lived, around 2002 to 2003. Some users have said it detects a little better than earlier versions, but it is operated the same way as previous versions. A $30 upgrade was offered to owners of pervious machines.
