Did this Gigmaster fix to my 800 coil ears after both ears broke (while using one of those so-called coil ear protectors) and I received the warranty replacement coil. It's been several years since doing this and my coil is like a rock. I've used my coil to clear ground, detected in fresh and saltwater. No issues. Personally, I would never use one of those coil ear stiffeners again.
