Genuine Minelab GPX Lithium-Ion Battery

Keep your proven Minelab GPX detector operating with the genuine Minelab lithium-ion replacement battery. Designed for the GPX 4000, GPX 4500, GPX 4800 and GPX 5000, this rechargeable battery combines dependable power with a built-in audio amplifier.

Whether your original battery is no longer holding a full charge or you want a spare for extended prospecting trips, Minelab part number 3011-0227 provides the correct fit without aftermarket adapters or modifications.

Compatibility warning: This battery is not compatible with the Minelab GPX 6000. The GPX 6000 uses a different battery system.

Built-In Audio Amplifier

This Minelab GPX battery has a built-in audio amplifier designed to support the detector’s audio system. It allows properly connected external audio equipment to receive amplified target audio without requiring a separate battery-mounted booster.

Clear target audio is especially valuable when listening for faint responses from small or deeply buried targets. The integrated design also helps keep your GPX setup organized in the field.

  • Minelab GPX 4000
