    NEL Thunder Coil Test

    I decided to try the NEL Thunder coil on my last trip to Florida just to see how it handled the salt water. I was kind of hesitant in buying it because I had tried the NEL Hunter coil which did a terrible job in salt water, it was extremely erratic and unstable. The Thunder coil measures 14.5" x...

    Sometimes "Old School" is better.

    Took an inventory of my Excal battery pods and found that 4 out of 5 pods had a cracked end cap. In the early days when they built the Sword units the end caps had a bulk head fitting that was mounted on the end cap and you didn't have some of cracking problems that you have now. So I figured I...

    Looking for Excalibur Battery Gasket Source..

    Trying to find the round rubber gasket that goes between the battery pod and the power plug on the Excalibur. I need several of them and I'm not interested in buying Minelab kits that want to sell you stuff that you don't need. Just another way Minelab is trying to generate more money.

    Two steps to success when wiring up a coil on the Excalibur.

    Many of us have attempted to change coils on the Excalibur and forgot which way to hook the wires back up after we cut the coil cable or when we are using coils from a different manufacturer that has different color wires. Here is a simple way to get the phasing right on both the transmit and...

    I found a real winner today folks.

    It's the Coiltex 12x8 eliptical coil made for the Sovereign/Excalibur. I put this on my Excal and it's simply amazing in salt water. It goes really deep no falsing and pinpointing is right on unlike the NEL I bought a few months ago that simply would not work in salt water because of the...

    I need some help on this subject.

    Some time ago some one made an amplifier that boosted the transmit power to the coil to increase depth of his Sovereign detector. He offered the device for sale and it seems like the cost was around $340. Does any one recal who this was or have a link to his web site? Thanks for your help.

    Major Mod on Stavr M9 Scoop

    I have converted a Stavr M9 into a 90 degree handle version. I use what I call the triangle method to give it superior strength and stability. I have also modified the holes from the standard 10mm and made some 7/16" and 1/2" using a pattern of enlargement to improve sifting capability while...

    Found a way to run Piezos on the Sovereign.

    The Sovereign doesn't have enough audio drive to run the piezos at the level I'm accustomed to so I added a step up transformer to my Sovereign water machine. The transformer has a turns ratio of about 1 to 3 with the primary being 10 ohms and the secondary being about 30 ohms. This provides...

    Lots of people are trying to make headphones......

    that sound great for the Excal and Sovereign but when your looking at an audio output like this there is not much to work with. This is exactly why the audio sounds as bad as it does, there is not a sine wave any where to be had. This is the picture of the threshold barely audible in the phones...
