Description
A dead battery in the goldfields does not just end the hunt, it ends the trip. The genuine Minelab GPX 6000 Lithium Ion Battery (part 3011-0432) is the official answer: the same battery your GPX 6000 shipped with, as a charged-and-ready spare in the pack or the straight replacement when the original ages out.
At a glance
Genuine Minelab accessory, part 3011-0432, UPC 811493017518. Fits: Minelab GPX 6000 only. Official OEM replacement part sold by History Seekers, an authorized Minelab dealer, at Minelab's approved price.
Why the official battery and not a knockoff
The GPX 6000 is a five-figure gold machine, and its power system is engineered as a unit: the pack, the electronics, and the charging circuit are designed together. Third-party cells with mismatched protection circuits are the classic cause of erratic behavior in precision detectors. The official pack simply works: same fit, same connector, same behavior your detector was calibrated around. It is also rated under 100Wh, the figure that matters when your prospecting trip starts at an airport; always confirm current battery rules with your airline before flying.
Serious GPX users run two: one on the machine, one charged in the pack. Swap at lunch and the detector never stops.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this battery fit any other Minelab detector?
No. This pack is built for the GPX 6000 only. Other Minelab machines use their own battery designs, and we list those separately.
Can I fly with this battery?
It is rated under 100Wh, which is below the limit most airlines apply to spare lithium batteries in carry-on baggage. Rules vary by airline and country, so always confirm with your carrier before you travel.
Is this the same battery that came with my GPX 6000?
Yes. Part 3011-0432 is the official Minelab pack the GPX 6000 ships with, sold separately as a spare or replacement.
Every History Seekers order is packed by people who run these machines in the field. We know which parts fail, which spares earn their keep, and we stock them because we have needed them ourselves. The story is more important than the artifact.
