Super 12 coil question
- Thread starter spdnj
- Start date
My local shop here has the Whites super 12 coil in stock and they said it will fit the V3i so I looked it over and the SN on the coil starts with SS. Does this mean it will not work on the Spectra V3i.
On Whites site they list only one super 12 and it states they will fit the V3i,.
Now im confused.

Non V rated coils do work on the V3i, it is they are not nulled to the highest standards. I would hold out for a Ser # that starts off with the V. Some non V rated coils do work fine, but still I would hold out for the V. I think I remember a post some time ago that some SS coils were nulled to the V standards, but I don't remember the specifics, a call to White's service might be in order about the SS coil.
The coil I use is not V rated and I can only get the Gain up to 10.......... a V rated coil should go to 15 held at waist height without overloading. You could try the 12 inch coil and see how high you can get it up to.

12" coils were made before the V3. They were not rated to be used with the 22.5kHz of the V3 or with its TX boost. It will fit but will not work as well as a v rated coil. You probably will have to run lower Rx and won't be able to run boost. Your dealer knows this. I also remember something about the SS earlier coil. I just don't remember what.
The coils really don't have a serial number it is a 2 letter ID and date code. as per Carl
