Steve Herschbach Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Obviously a larger coil will not be quite as hot on tiny objects as a smaller coil. That said the Equinox has remarkable small item capability such that even with the larger coil it is hotter than many machines. This is honestly one of the best larger VLF coils I have used. I am certain it will become the standard coil for many Equinox users. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy2640 Posted October 16, 2018 Author Share Posted October 16, 2018 I wonder why ML didnt go for a CTX like - 17 inch'er for the foxy? Anyways i phoned a few stores yesterday, Crawfords UK and Joan Allen UK. Both said they will know more Thursday, but expecting them to arrive next week ?

I don’t have any more problem pinpointing with it than the stock coil. Unreserved thumbs up on my part! Steve what is the weight compared to the 11"er?

Chase Goldman Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Thanks. What was the metallic composition of the test targets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL NINO77 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 It's lead ... And I increase the sensitivity from 20 to 22 - 15x12 "coils - Is similar or exceed the range of 11" standard coil ... Tests in terrain at 0.05 gram gold O - segment at a depth of 10 cm in the ground I show it - when raising sensitivity 21-22 to -11 "standard coil-with sensitivity 23,24..to 15X12 large coil..this coil is sensitive ..., works well on high sensitivity...tested in programs Park 2,recovery speed 4-5 is optimal-in test.., 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewcon4414 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Looks like the standard coil held its own to me........ add salt water and if that coil has to be turned down..... coverage maybe the only advantage for water hunters..... and that will depend on how much effort it takes to push it around out there. BUT.......the 6" coil was pretty impressive to me. You'd have to want to do some griding/grinding thou to use it on the beach....... lot of patience with a beach and no targets. Thanks for that post ...... im hoping to see a lot more from those who got it earlier than the U.S. Im told i wouldnt see one until Dec or Jan if i ordered now.

EL NINO77 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 ...in this test I also tested the coins, small and medium size coin,,....50eurocent at a depth of 38cm in the ground, and 1 Polish grosz-15mm -1.65gram coin-at a depth of 29cm.in the ground. and the big coil detects these coins with a good signal, tomorrow it compares to 15x12" coil and 11" standart coil on these coins... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
