And how much would you estimate the depth difference between a MPV3 8X6 or 11,5 and a classical VLF detector like an Equinox 11 or a D2 11 on a big coin for example ? thanks ..

Shelton Posted February 21, 2023 Author Share Posted February 21, 2023 Few more pictures of not finished Nexus Pathfinder V3. Almost done. Pure monster.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelton Posted April 14, 2023 Author Share Posted April 14, 2023 Ok few moments with new 24kHz Silver Scout coil… what is awesome? That machine run very very smooth. You have feel that you control everything… you know where is iron and where are high conductors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelton Posted April 19, 2023 Author Share Posted April 19, 2023 Ok, that setup with concentric Silver Scout coil works very well. MPV3 is easy to set up and works perfectly in iron. Also is good weight balanced. The audio is very smooth and easy to learn. In my conditions - a lot of iron is necessary to use a single ton and VCO only to check suspected targets. The LED meter works like a second-hand tool. If you are not sure you can use it to examine what kind of conductor you have under your coil. Single-tone audio is easy to distinguish, iron targets are longer and blurry but low and high conductors work faster and crisp - beep - beep in both directions just click on them. When you are on VCO you hear two tones. No place for mistakes even with tricky targets near iron and a fast look at the LED meter to be sure of 100%. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelton Posted May 31, 2023 Author Share Posted May 31, 2023 Little summary. The threshold was too high, and the place is heavily covered with iron. Deus II or Manticore, which I have, hardly works here. They are much louder and it isn't easy to find something precious. Depth and recovery speed is incredible with SS coil. I will try to use a double butterfly coil above the high grass soon. I'm impressed with how that metal detector performs. Nexus Mp v3 is a true high-quality tool and is different than other devices. You have to forget everything you've learned with other detectors and start from scratch. Lesson learned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kac Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Discrimination on it reminds me much lile my Tejon but better audio. That is a non motion machine right? Is it FCC compliant? Scares me to dish out some big bucks and have some schmuck in Customs keep it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickUK Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Some very good videos,my 2 favourite coils for the Nexus MP are the small 8x6 DD coil which stays on the machine 85% of the time and also the 11.5'' Concentric coil,the latter coil is very good for trashy roman sites and especially silver hammered coins as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phrunt Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 That looks one solidly built shaft, I like the statement in the video "a detector is only as good as it's coil", so true and what a difference a good coil can make to a detector. Good to see a concentric coil on that too, many manufacturers have moved away from them or only offer them on their entry level machines for some odd reason. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
