The Tele-Knox Telescopic Equinox aftermarket stems have been designed by long time friend and Minelab owner Scott Ellis. He has put a lot of thought and experience into the design.
The stems are 3 piece, will telescope in to 21″ (53cm and have an extended out length of 52″ (132cm) and available in two colours.
There is an anti rotation feature built into the length of the stem externally which increases their strength and also stops sideways movement so no twisting or wobble.
The stems are now fitted with our own designed lever locks with stainless steel Allen bolts and locking nuts which can be tightened with the supplied key as and when necessary.
Coil end fixings have been moulded to allow the use of CTX style round rubber washers (included in kit x 4). This thicker washer should help to reduce over tightening problems of the coil bolt.
The coil stem end fixing and also the small clamp under the Equinox control box have been re-designed and moulded rather than be made from a 3D printing which we consider not so strong.
The stem & armrest only weigh 0.299kg on their own.
Lower stem of the 3 part stem will always be black, the top two stems initially will be Red/Black check pattern or alternatively the Matt Black check pattern. We have been advised the coloured stem parts cannot be used for the bottom stem because there is metal foil in the colour make up which will affect signals on the detector.

I can start this out by saying that the service was just fine no issues at all as for as the collapsible shaft goes my equinox 800 is now less than 30 inches and that’s great the only thing that I wish i could do is twist the coil sideways so I don’t have to take it off to store it in a hard case but I guess you can’t have everything finding a hard case for is not that easy either but as the shaft goes it looks great it works fine no problem other than what I mentioned above I love it so far

Love it. Could be a bit short for the talker detectorist.
