I've the new one and it's spot on every time and the battery is great in it. Only used the old one two or three times and I think the new one is more accurate and the noise of the old one drives me madyip a no what you mean with the noise so the new set up is better then perfect I only got mine last summer had over70 digs with it and never set me wrong and it the best money I ever spent cant go wrong with it
