Question......WOT vs Platypus......Sov XS 2a Pro

[clockdryve]

Wanting to get a WOT or a Platypus New from Doc's and want to know which works better for coin sized objects.....using a Sovereign XS 2a Pro. I just ordered the "Screamer" headphone Amplifier a few minutes ago. So just something extra to mess with I guess. I also have a 11" Coinsearch for this same detector, but not really used either. Guess because it's like trying to use a nose heavy sledge hammer to detect with. What were they EVER thinking

I have a Wot 15" on my XS2aPro and it works great although its my second choice, a better coil for me is the SEF15x12 but as its an only now and again use detector i can't afford to have one lying round doing nothing for most of the time(i will get another one eventually as i sold the 15x12 with the Elite)Platapus, no idea, never used it

I used the platypus on my minelab quattro......it was better balanced and a lot better in trashy areas than the stock coil.I also used the wot which i found too heavy and not very good in high trash areas.However,it has great ground coverage and good depth,although i never found things at the amazing depths some people get.If you are looking for an excellent all round coil i would personally get the platypus...it's more useful in a wider variety of conditions than the wot.

Between the WOT and the Platypus I'd pick the 15x12 SEF.

The WOT is going to be a lot more heavier than the 11 inch Coinsearch.My pick would be the Platypus in your case.You interested in selling the Coinsearch you could probably help pay for the Coiltek coil.HH Ron
