What's a good lightweight detector?

I have a Whites 6000 DI, but I haven't used it for a few years.
It has the ground balance switch broken right now, but I'm reluctant to get it repaired.
I have badly torn rotator cuffs in both shoulders, and this is a heavy machine.
If I replace it, I'd like to get something lighter, but still have the same quality.
I found a really great amount of coins and jewelry with this. No B.S., I literally followed other people with detectors and dug the many coins and rings they missed.
One summer, I took up more than $200 in pennies from one local park. When I took them to the bank, the bank wouldn't take them. Too many of the zinc ones were corroded.
Anyway, any comments on a lighter machine that is high quality and will pick up coins up to 9 or so inches deep appreciated.

I wanted to comment on the bank not taking your corroded pennies. If you still have them, get some free penny wrappers from your local bank branch and wrap them up. If the teller unwraps them and sees they are corrored and again refuses them, tell her to call the closest Federal Reserve and ask if he/she can refuse them. The answer is, unless they are actually broken, they cannot be refused.
