    Fake detectors

    If you actually want to try again with alibaba, use &&&&&&&&&.com. It's their official retail (ebay) type outlet. Most of the items sell in the 1x quantity and they escrow everything (meaning they don't release funds to seller until you have received the item and tell them it is as advertised)...

    Why some hate and love the V3i?

    I Have been using my V3i (about once a week) since they first came out (V3, then converted to i). I am more of a coin shooter because I like being confident of what I am digging, and the severe lack of jewelry in the ground in my area (no one in our club finds much jewelry except on the...

    Kudo's to White's! Customer Service above and beyond!

    Glad to hear they treated you right. There are a couple of us board members from Southern Maryland, and while our club just disbanded 2 months ago (shame, 30 people on the roster but none ever showed for the meetings) we would be happy to have you come hunt with us. And coincidentally, a good...

    how about 15x12 inch Excelerator coil

    Guess I never got a "good" one either. I got a so-so one. Typically if the area is low EMI I can run this coil, buried power lines or a transformer within a couple hundred feet will kill it though (even 1/1/1 will constantly false). It's the most EMI sensative coil I have ever run. If I am in...

    V3i Finds Beautiful Seated Liberty Quarter

    I still say you cut across my detecting path. Lucky SOB.

    Okay, white SEF #'s while in back yard.

    I'm on my second 15x12 White SEF. This one is a tad more stable than the first. I don't ever seem to get overloads unless I am running TX boost in a noisy area, that said it can get a bit jumpy with the EMF (lots of falsing). The settings I can usually run at are RX 8, DS 92, AM 70. If it's too...

    V3I AND S.E.F.

    Rob, Did you measure the black or the white one? From the descriptions the newer white one is supposed to be a little bit lighter than the older one.

    Quick review of the new 12x15 (white) SEF Coil *With 2 Firsts*

    Finally got my replacement 12x15 this morning. Decided to go out for an hour or two before the storm rolls in for the rest of the weekend. I took the coil to the same field I used the previous coil. First thing I noticed is that it is more stable. I ran it pretty comfortably at 8/70/90 and...

    Stupid question due to lack of experience....

    I purchased the 6x10 a year or so ago. Ran it for a couple of weeks before I decided to go back to the D2 as my main coil. The 6x10 isn't as deep (for me) as the D2, the savings in weight doesn't make much difference to me, and it doesn't work all that much better in trashy areas (for which I...

    Follow up

    Not sure if you were referring to my post or not; but I couldn't follow up because I haven't received my replacement yet. Actually, they did send me a replacement, it just happened to be the exact same coil I sent back. One person processed the return, the next person processed the exchange and...

    Why mixed mode audio?

    So, by and large the areas I hunt are trashy and do not have particularly deep targets. Sounds like it may not be the best choice for my hunting style. I could see the attraction if relic hunting or hunting a relatively clean location where targets might be fairly deep. Thanks for the input guys.

    Why mixed mode audio?

    Seems that lots of folks in the forum like to detect in mixed mode. I tried it for a couple of outings, then realized that it didn't seem to add to my type of detecting (mostly coin shooting). Why use mixed mode, unless you are specifically targetting iron artifacts? And if you are, why bother...

    How do *you* make the decision to dig a "ring"?

    I probably shouldn't listen to them, but a couple of the old timers in my club say that they can tell 80% or more of the time if they are about to dig up a gold ring with their water machines (Fisher CZ20s I think).

    Quick review of the new 12x15 (white) SEF Coil *With 2 Firsts*

    Bill, Mine seems to have issues with EMI. If I am in a noisy environment my numbers don't look so hot. Out at the park, or in a field, the signal and noise numbers are very low. Might just be the nature of the beast for these coils.

    Third Party Coils

    I have about 10-12 hours of testing on my 12x15 SEF (white color) coil. So far as stated in the other threads I have had issues whith mild EMI / noisy environments causing falsing, but I have been mosty able to calm this down. That said, the coil has a rock solid <10% on signal in any single...

    Quick review of the new 12x15 (white) SEF Coil *With 2 Firsts*

    Wen't back out to the field with low EMI to do some more testing. The noise numbers remain about where they were before, however the signal numbers are much lower. 8/70/88 gives a signal of about 7, and 12/70/90 runs it up to 10. I was able to run the unit a tad bit hotter today as I noticed...

    Quick review of the new 12x15 (white) SEF Coil *With 2 Firsts*

    Thank you Rob. I was bringing up that screen, but I never had RX on that screen highlighted (I had RX on the live bar highlighted and thought thats what everyone was referring to). So, in my garage (non-ideal work space, lots of metal and power). With the settings at 8/70/88, which is where I...

    Quick review of the new 12x15 (white) SEF Coil *With 2 Firsts*

    I definitely tried to do this (as I heard the requests for the signal % before) and I just now went out into my garage to double check. From the live menu, if sensitivity is highlighted, pressing zoom just brings up a fullscreen sensitivity menu. The same if I press highlight and make sure RX is...
