Since your videos keep disappearing before I have a chance to watch them, I can't comment on what might be going on with the '808. But I do know that a lot of people who didn't understand how to use one dug a lot of holes to nowhere. Previously you implied bringing in the '808 after digging 9 feet, and got a good signal. That was at least 18 feet ago, maybe 70, and you're still getting a good signal. That tells me you're not detecting a real target. As I said in the other thread, I predict in another 20 feet it'll still give a good signal.
I can't fault you on the '808 problem, it's common. The punchline to the whole story is how the sites were located in the first place: dowsing. Or LRLs, same thing. I hope before you completely give up and fill those holes back in you will thoroughly check the dowses offered by Okie and Weregolf. They'll also be failures, and offer two more data points on the efficacy of dowsing. But you gotta keep track of these things... if dowsers paid close attention to their failure rates, they'd all pretty much agree, dowsing really sucks. Only seems to work when you don't pay attention, or never dig a hole.
