3X18 CLEANSWEEP COIL ON THE GOLDEN UMAX

[mike p.]

HAS ANYONE USED THIS COIL ON THE GOLDEN OR OUTLAW?

Yes, I have one for my Golden. Being long and rectangular makes all the difference, the thin long DD winding will allow you to hear good targets amongst trash and cover lots of ground at the same time. Tesoro should release the Golden with this coil, this is made for the Golden.

I use one on my Golden. Good for shallow stuff and you can walk fast when using it.

Jabo is right," good for shallow stuff"....I had one on a silver uMax.It was fine when you could scrape the ground..I worked an area that had moderate grass growth, and found a few coins. Went back with the standard coil, five times longer to cover the Territory...Time was spent DIGGING..I'd go back with a deeper unit, but the "no metal detectors" sign was posted a month or so later... We have a clod who can't even kick dirt in a tot lot..If you read about some "Treasure Hunter" who had to have emergency surgery to get a metal detector removed.. That's the guy... By the way, A Vaquero / Cibola will hit a dime at 5 to better n 6 inches with a C/ S coil..Having been there, I would suggest up grading to at least a Cibola... Less expensive than a Vaquero, and you are only giving up about an inch in depth.

I just got an Outlaw and put my cleansweep on it. So far I have noticed that the target response is not as strong as with the 8" coil. I havent done any real tests and only about 2 hrs of use with the setup.
