I think they are commonly called a ferrite choke. You'll sometimes find a similar set up built into the cord going to an old parallel printer on a PC. In principal, they are built to act as a choke for high frequency interference on analog circuits. But if we're talking about reducing the RFI or EMF between your detector and the coil, I don't see it happening with a ferrite choke. First off, the cable used for the coils is a shielded cable. Secondly, with VFLEX technology, the signals sent between the coil and control housing are digital signals. That was one of the key benefits with the introduction of VFLEX. Keep your money in your pocket on this one. JMHO HH Randy
