Does anyone know if the Aukey B80 earbuds will work with the Vanquish 540 or is anyone using anything else with their Vanquish besides the ML-80’s that they can recommend? Thanks!
Sorry, but no help here. I've never liked using ear buds, and many don't sound so great for this deaf guy. I also do not like short-length or straight headphone cables. But you asked about Bluetooth and I never found any of those w/ear buds that worked well for me, either.
For me, the wireless ML-80 headphones are working so well I have never used an adapter for my favorite ¼" coiled-cord headphones. God luck finding something you like. I'm curious why you don't like the ML-80s?

Hi Monte, My Vanquish was not from a Pro Pack so I only have the hard wired Minelab ones currently. The corded units were ok at the beach since you pretty much have the detector at your side all the time, but once I start hunting in the woods again I don't want to deal with the cord every time I set the detector down. I am just looking for some options. I see a lot of guys using the Aukey units for their NOX and seem to like them. I don't have anything against picking up a set of the ML-80's if I can't find anything else. I did like the over the ear option at the beach as they helped block out some of the background noise.

My Aukey B80s work fine with the Vanquish 540 and 3 out of 4 of the Equinox I have tried them on. The one they didn't work with had a Bluetooth issue and Minelab replaced the entire control box under warranty. The Aukey B80s sound great, stay in my ears, are very noise cancelling and have yet to disappoint me.
What kind of battery life do you get out of them? It says they can do 8 hours. That control box is tiny. Was just curious how long they last for you. Thanks!
