Gold Hound Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Hi Steve I run the 18in SEF DD as my standard coil for treasure hunting in Europe on my GPX4800. Its a good stable coil that punches deeper than a standard dd, perfect for anything from a single small hammered coin up to large deep items or a cache. Its been flogged and never developed any touch sensitivity. Detech is based in Bulgaria so its probably better to buy direct than import from Aus. The sef were also my go to coils when I used the etrack. A mate runs a few of the mono's on the 5k and swears by them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 Good to hear of your positive experience Dale. I have a couple DeTech coils but never used one on my Minelabs. We can certainly use some price competition in accessory coils for the Minelab PI detectors so the more the merrier. We do not hear too much about these because so many dealers are already heavily invested in Nugget Finder or Coiltek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klunker Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I tried out a DD on the 5000. No complaints and from me that is rare. I didn't take the time to do an honest comparison performance wise. I had a series of Minelab DD failures and the next time one fails I certainly will consider a Detech. I believe Chris Porter is a dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinky Pete Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Hi I'm the distributor for Detech in Australia. We have been having great success with the Detech range of coils. Australian prospectors have been keen to purchase these competitively priced coils. And have most certainly given us positive feed back on the build quality and performance. The range of coils have been extensively tested in the Australian gold fields, all new coils are tested here before we release them. Most of the feed back is on how sensitive the coils are and how they go about there job so quietly . These are robust coils 100 percent waterproof and very resistant to bump or touch sensitivity We've had great customer feed back The Detech range is still evolving Hope this helps Stinky Pete Australia Detech-metaldetectorsaustralia.com.au Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 Welcome to the forum Stinky Pete and hello again Rege, thanks for chiming in on the thread. Nice for anyone that has any questions to have some contacts. In case anyone is wondering I am not promoting any particular brand of coils. I am just trying to give some less discussed brands some exposure because many people are not aware of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relichunter Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I use the 10x15 Mono E and it's my favorite coil, I have the Coilteks and Nuggetfinder coils and I have found that Detech coils are super sensitive and no noise when bumped on rocks and bushes. I find all the others fail in that region, its up to par as far as dept and sensitivity but Detech has a profound edge over all the others in the bump test. How many times do you take your coil under bushes and brush reaching as far as you can under them and all you hear is signals from the coil being bumped? With Detech coils i don't experience that, if I hear a signal I know its a target. Tried out the 8 " round and that's the next coil I want to purchase .

Its a pity they never made a 14in mono coil for the GPX, I'd have bought one straight away as the 14in is the best all round coil for the 5k. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
