Russell Banks Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Hey guys, having come from a 705 to the 800 Im waiting for Mars MD to see if they bring out coils for the equinoxes. I had the 10x6 sniper and goliath coils, they were fantastic coils and had 2 frequencies. The goliath was deeper than an SE by far. The sniper was the perfect coil on the 705. I sold it all to buy the 800 but miss that coil. Check out MarsMD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewcon4414 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I like the detentions of the coil but it would be a tricky one to use in the water. The coil mount in a little to far back so in the water youd get a bit more coil flip and fully enclosed makes coil control difficult. BUT...... im 1000 percent behind the need for more coils for this machine. These modes cry for specialized coils. Id like to see one like a NEL coil in that 9 or 10" range. As popular as this machine is ..... it deserves more than what the expensive CTX got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Equinox is possible (no chip) I'm sure if the demand is there they'll try... with the Equinox being the hot detector at the moment I'm sure if it's possible they would jump right on it if they had people requesting it from them.... I know I would be buying one, Mars seem make fantastic coils judging by the Tiger coil I got for my T2 from Mars. It just destroys the stock 11" Teknetics coil. I've never put it back on since. Do they make multifrequency compatible coils? All the VLFs mentioned are single frequency detectors and the ML Equinox coils are also chipped. Thanks.

Russell Banks Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 Yes I have asked about this and Saud they weren’t planning to make coils for the nox yet. I'm guessing if enough people asked them they will reconsider. The quality of mars coils is incredible compared to what minelab sell. No stupid covers that get full of sand for a start.

Chase Goldman Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I think there are some technical challenges associated with such a wideband coil (one that can operate from 5 khz up to 40 khz) that they may not have capability to produce them independently without understanding what ML does to enable this.

Cal_Cobra Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 These guys would make a small fortune if they made Equinox coils. Heck here we're going a year since the Equinox reveal and you can't even get a 6" coil for it (easily), let alone any other coils, they'd practically have the market cornered on EQ coils. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL NINO77 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I use the coil mars sniper-6X10 "on the Whites Spectra V3-it's an excellent, and sensitive multifrequency coil, so I do not doubt the similar coil on the Equinox will be just as good ... it had 6 equinox" coil is already at home but momentarily I'm a week out in Spain... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True as long as ML cooperates and gives Mars the tech info they need to make a compatible coil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackpine Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I have the 10x6 and 10x13 for the 705. Running the 10x6 at 18.75 Khz it's much better at ID'ing tabs vs nickels than the Nox and the 10x13 is way deep. Would love to have the 10x6 for the Nox! ?
