At a glance
Genuine Minelab accessory, part 3011-0486, UPC 811493019161. Fits: Minelab Manticore only. Official OEM replacement part sold by History Seekers, an authorized Minelab dealer, at Minelab's approved price.
Why this battery belongs in every Manticore kit
Every lithium battery ages by calendar as much as by use, and on a flagship detector the pack will need renewing years before the machine does. This is the official 25Wh Minelab part, shown with its sealing cap and O-ring, engineered for the Manticore's sealed, submersible housing. Fitting genuine means the seal geometry, connector, and protection circuit are exactly what the IP68 rating was certified with. Whether your runtime has started shrinking or you simply want the spare on hand before a trip, this is the one part that guarantees your Manticore's next ten years have power.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this fit the Equinox or X-Terra?
No. This 25Wh pack is engineered for the Manticore's sealed housing. Equinox and X-Terra models use their own battery parts, which we list separately.
When should I replace my Manticore battery?
When a full charge stops covering the field day it used to. Lithium packs age with time and charge cycles; the detector itself is built to outlast several of them.
Is this really the official Minelab part?
Yes. Part 3011-0486 from Minelab's accessory line, with the sealing hardware shown, sold by History Seekers as an authorized Minelab dealer.
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.
