Help Me Choose 2 New Coils And I will Give You A Complete Review/Feedback

[MHirschmann]

Hi Everyone, firstly, I am sorry that I haven't posted in a while but my wife and I have been busy firstly buying our new home and then completely renovating it in the meantime. Those problems aside, I have decided to purchase 2 new coils and to give you a complete run-down on both as I always did with other products that I purchased in the past. I currently have the stock, 8 inch minelab FBS and the 4.5x7 inch DD Xcellerator coils for my ET. I recently decided I wanted to purchase a new large and small coil that I want to try for my ET and to give you a complete run-down, overview and no BS review of these coils. As some of you know from my past posts, I am no stranger to this hobby and there are constant questions about coils on this forum so here is you opportunity to voice which coils you vote for and I promise you a complete run-down of 2 coils that you may wonder about. I was thinking about getting a 6x8sef and a 12x15 sef coil or a sunray x-12. Although these were my thoughts, if there are different coils that are wondered about out there I would appreciate your input and I promise you a very detailed review of whatever 2 coils are chosen. I plan to purchase 2 new coils within the next 48 hours for this review. Whichever 2 coils are most voted for (one small and one large) are the two that I promise a thorough review for. This poll is officially open until Friday Dec 23rd and I will overnight the coils to be here on Monday. I will then put the chosen coils through their paces starting Monday and will hopefully have a complete review for you after 2 weeks of intensive testing. I appreciate any and all input and if there are any manufacturers that come across this post, I would appreciate any and all recommendations in this poll. I promise to purchase to the 2 winners, even if they are not the ones that I mentioned without bias. Thank you for your help and input and I wish you all the best of luck in your hunts in the meantime. HH -Marc

I like the Sunray X-12, lightweight and great coverage.

I have an NEL Tornado (12 X 13) and Sharpshooter (9.5 X 5.5) on order based on the good reviews of both.

S.E.F. 8x6 and the 12x15 Thanks

If you are looking for a smaller coil the 6x8 SEF is great. I have one and it's outstanding. I think it's the best smaller coil you could get. Just my take on coils.

Coiltek 15 WOT and SEF 12x15.

 

[lchadl]

6*8

 

[silverman]

NEL 12x13. and Sharpshooter 9.5x5.5
Best I have used

 

[Tenspeed]

6 x 8 and 15" WOT. One of my hunting buddies has the WOT and another the 12 x 15 and the 12 x 15 is a lot heavier and harder on the arm according the the owner.

I love my 6 x 8.

I'd love to see the comparison between the Stock 11" the SEF 10x12 and the NEL 12x13.

 

[JMT Detectors]

My vote is for the Sharpshooter (9.5 X 5.5) and the Sunray X-12.

 

[MHirschmann]

SEF 12x15 = 4
SEF 6x8 = 6
Coiltek Joey = 1
Sunray x-12 = 3
12x13 nel = 4
Sharpshooter 9.5x5.5 = 3
Coiltek 15 WOT = 2
SEF 10x12 = 1

 

[ZOFCHAK]

Another vote for the NEL coil. I've used most of the rest on the list, but the NEL seems interesting....

 

[niterider_58]

5 inch Xcell or 6x8 and 12x15 are awesome

 

[rarysgaard]

I have both the 6' Excelerator coil & 12x15 sef and love both of them. The 12x15 is easy to pin point with and sensitive to small targets, yet deep. The 6' is exception in target seperation but still very deep jewelry & dimes at 8".
