Ridge Runner Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Phrunt When I got White’s on the phone I did ask if they going to sale that coil by it’s self and he said yes but not now. If it sales like they want we’ll never see it as a single item. Chuck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor communication by White's if that's the case. They should offer an upgrade program to existing users though in that situation. Can't upgrade the TDI's via software, like the 'Nox. I don't think they've ever offered changes to the circuitry. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridge Runner Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Jim If this TDI sales is like a dead fish and don’t move like White’s wants we’ll see it sooner. That tan box didn’t sale like they wanted before and they want to try to make another run at it . Think about this if you could buy both coils it may cost around about 500 to get out the door with them . Take that 500 from 1099 that you can buy the whole package for and now you find yourself paying 599 for the electronics you have in that tan box . Just how do you spell steal as in stolen. If White’s are someone out there would make a video to show and tell all . I could find myself with a tan box standing with other detectors.

Chuck, I think White's should hire you as their new sales/marketing manager. Don't let them low ball you on compensation though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Bear in mind, Chuck, that the electronics cost is really low. I doubt the components cost Whites more than $100. All you have left is the box, shaft, and labor. The real cost is in the engineering. I imagine they're still making money at the new price, even including the coils. Also, where are you getting your info on how many tan machines have sold? They obviously sold enough to run out of the MJFM coils. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Jim If White’s wasn’t making money they wouldn’t be selling it. It’s like you said in my way you’re not paying the Doctor for what he’s doing but what he knows . Chuck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garikfox Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Hey guys, I was curious and emailed White's to see about the new coil on the TDI SL. If anyone is interested here is what Jack from White's said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
