Description
Within a month of owning an Equinox, every serious detectorist asks the same question: which coil do I actually need for this site? The EQUINOX 900 Recovery Bundle is Minelab's factory answer - all three EQX coil sizes in one box, under one part number (3720-1005), so the machine adapts to the ground instead of the other way around.
At a glance
The Minelab Equinox 900 Recovery Bundle (part 3720-1005) is the complete-coverage kit: the full Equinox 900 plus the EQX15 15 in (38 cm) deep-seeking coil - all three EQX coil sizes - and the Minelab detecting backpack under one factory part number. Multi-IQ, IP68 to 16 ft (5 m), 3 year warranty.
Why three coils changes how you hunt
The 6 in (15 cm) coil threads nail beds, the 11 in (28 cm) covers everyday ground, and the EQX15 reaches deep targets in open fields the smaller coils walk over. Owning the full range means the pounded park, the beach cut, and the forty-acre permission each get the right tool. Minelab publishes a $1,438 regular price for this bundle and sells it direct at our same price when in stock - the manufacturer's own figure, not a dealer's strikethrough - and the backpack exists precisely because three coils do not fit in a jacket pocket.
Technical specs and what they do in the field
| Multi-IQ simultaneous multi-frequency; 4/5/10/15/20/40 kHz singles | Deep silver and small gold register on the same sweep; drop to 40 kHz single for small gold in hot ground. |
| 119 target IDs (ferrous -19 to 0, non-ferrous 1 to 99) | Iron declares itself on its own scale instead of bleeding into good-target numbers. |
| EQX11 11 in (28 cm) + EQX06 6 in (15 cm) coils in every 900 box | Coverage from the 11 in (28 cm) coil, surgical separation in trash from the 6 in (15 cm) - two jobs, one machine. |
| IP68, waterproof to 16 ft (5 m) | Wade, surf-hunt, and work flooded sites. |
| 2.8 lb (1.27 kg), collapses to 24 in (61 cm) | All-day swinging; packs into carry-on luggage. |
| ML85 low-latency wireless headphones included | Crisp responses in sync with your swing. |
| EQX15 15 in (38 cm) coil (bundle exclusive) | Maximum depth and coverage for open fields and large targets - completes all three EQX sizes. |
| Minelab detecting backpack (bundle exclusive) | Carries the collapsed 900 and all three coils. |
| 3-year Minelab warranty | Control box and coil, backed by an authorized dealer. |

Minelab 15% Military Discount
Minelab offers a 15% military discount on Minelab detectors (accessories excluded), and this bundle is built on the Equinox 900. Contact us directly at 256-284-2247 for details and to order with the discount. Not combinable with other promotions or discounts.
Which Equinox 900 bundle is right for you?
Recovery ($1,299) is the coverage pick. If in-hole recovery matters more than the big coil, the Field Bundle ($1,199) swaps the EQX15 for the PRO-FIND 40 pinpointer. The Ultimate ($1,399) includes both; Essentials ($1,099) is the value entry with the standard two coils.
Who it is for
Detectorists who hunt varied ground - trashy parks one weekend, open fields and beaches the next - and want every coil size Minelab makes for the Equinox from day one.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a real Minelab bundle or a dealer kit?
A factory Minelab bundle with its own Minelab part number, 3720-1005. Most bundles online are dealer-assembled kits with third-party accessories; this one is packed by Minelab with manufacturer-set pricing, so every component is genuine Minelab under one warranty conversation.
What does the EQX15 coil add?
Depth and coverage. The EQX15 15 in (38 cm) Double-D is the largest EQX coil, built for open fields and maximum depth on larger targets. With the EQX11 and EQX06 already in the 900 box, this bundle covers every coil size Minelab makes for the Equinox.
Is the Equinox 900 waterproof?
Yes. IP68 rated and fully submersible to 16 ft (5 m), with dedicated Beach modes. The ML85 wireless headphones are for land use; submerged hunting requires wired waterproof headphones.
Does this bundle qualify for a military discount?
Yes. Minelab offers a 15% military discount on Minelab detectors (accessories excluded). Contact us directly at 256-284-2247 for details. It cannot be combined with other promotions or discounts.
