Lighter alternative for V12X Coil

[hammer0419]

Just received my Xterra Elite machine. Hoping to get some time out with it this weekend. Due to some severe carpal tunnel and injuries I am reaching out to find coil alternatives. I understand a smaller coil will lose depth so I'm trying to minimize that and save some weight if possible? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all

There is a V10X a little smaller

There is the v8x (8x5) and equinox 6 inch round as well. The little you may loose in depth will be offset by better separation. Check the weight on them though.

Any of the coils for the Equinox will work on the XTE, so you have quite a few choices.
CoilTek has several coils that will work on it too.

Congrats on the elite, a shoulder strap will help you alot on swinging , I keep the 5x8 on mostly it has decent depth , and better sweep cover than the 6". I would only consider the 6" coil if I was beach hunting, then again that's me, but Congrats on getting the Elite, it's a dang good machine. HHHank

V10X or 6" coil.

I bought the Double Score then shortly after the Elite came out (go figure).
The DS came with the 12 inch & I only tested it to check that the detector works.
When I bought the DS I also bought the V8X and and 6 inch (EQX 06 - something like that).
I just prefer smaller coils most times, especially more trashy areas. I wouldn't mind having a 4" if they had one.
