    My SEF 12x10 is on the way from KellyCo

    Got an email (3:30PM today) from KellyCo letting me know that their shipment had arrived and my SEF is on it's way! If anyone is still looking from one, now's the time to give them a call.

    First hunt with detech 13 ultimate

    I bought a second hand 13 ult. recently. Yesterday I epoxied around the coil nut and sealed it beneath the cable strain relief nut with RTV. I took it out this evening for a trial run, and I was pretty happy. It feels lighter than the 10" tornado (not sure if I'm just imagining this) and...

    Sunray Intruder S-12 problems/questions

    So I picked up an s12 recently. I was very impressed by the weight, but so far it hasn't met any of my expectations. I know a lot of people like them, so I'm wondering if there is something wrong with mine. It can barely air test a us quarter to 10". Actual field experience has been dismal...

    New s-12 intruder, first two runs

    I tried my new Sunray s12 out last night and today after work. It's a big switch from the 10" Tornado. Feels a lot lighter, and the bigger coverage is going to take some getting used to. I haven't had an opportunity to really try it out (only put in a little over an hour, both hunts...

    Wired 10"tornado to xcal 800, weird noises

    I've had some mini buccaneers and a 10" tornado coil sitting on my shelf for a while now, and finally got around to wiring them to my xcal 800. First, I was happy to find that the xcal had 4 coil wires, black, white, red and yellow. Not that it would have been a problem if it had the blue and...

    Want to replace 8"bbs w/ 10" tornado xcal

    I just don't like the 8" bbs coil on my xcal, at least right now. I plan on replacing it w/ a 10" tornado eventually. I'm not sure I want to hardwire the new coil in, just in case I want to switch back and forth with the 8". One thing I do like about the 8" is the lack of falsing w/ higher...

    Recent Silver Find

    Recalling a post requesting more pictures of our finds, it thought I would post one. Went hunting last Wednesday (or Thurs, but pretty sure it was Weds) and found this 10.8g hammered silver bracelet. There were no marks, so I had to do the water density test to confirm. It was a nice treat to...

    xcal battery terminals (little cup things)

    I'm trying to find the battery terminals for the excaliburs. The female parts in the battery packs. I've done some searching, but have had no luck. If it comes down to it, I guess I would have to make them, but I imagine they must be available somewhere. They do seem kind of "different" and...

    excal knobs/pots

    I did some thread searching and am pretty sure everything is ok, but just wanted to double check. The disc and threshold knobs on my excal can be turned 180 degrees. I should say "could" be turned 180 degrees, I'm not about to force them. When I got the excal, the disc knob dial didn't line...

    Building straigt shaft for excal

    I haven't even used my excal yet and I already know I won't be comfortable with the short unbalanced factory s-shaft. I've decided to make a straight shaft w/ the control box mounted under the cuff. I've ordered the tubing and quick release buttons (for battery and control box). I'm still...

    charger (adapter/transformer) voltage output

    I just got a new excalibur, but the charger only puts out 8.xx volts. I have a couple questions to pester everyone with, so here goes. This thing is nothing more than a transformer, right? Or is it really a charger as it is labeled? I know it says 14.3 volts, but how many volts does it...

    Sovereign, no signal means target in next scoop behaviour

    The thread on sweep speed and a mention of air testing in it made me think of this. I know I'm not the only one who experiences this because I've heard others talk of it. 100% of my hunting is at ocean (salt) beach, so I don't know if this occurs elsewhere. Very often I will be digging (w/...

    finally comfortable huting outside auto sensitivity

    A couple hunts ago, I decided I was finally familiar enough with my gt to step out of auto. In the dry sand to damp sand through wet sand on the slope I've found I can hunt with sens at about 10-11 o'clock. In the wet to water I have to drop to 12-1 o'clock. I purchased a Ron's 180 meter...
