Tornado Coil for the X-Terra

....just bought it guys!!!
Let's see how it handles in the UK........

Tried to pay via Paypal but it said the seller's Paypal account doesn't accept incoming payments????......I've already contacted him....

Gaz.
 
.....looks like he's overlooked the fact that PayPal doesn't issue payments to the Ukraine yet for some reason.
I told him he'll have to re-list it and let people know about the PayPal issue.

Gaz.
 
Gaz, I do hope you get a NEL coil, and then give us feedback on it. Maybe try and contact capt. by a PM and find out how he paid for his NEL coil.?
new coil to Omega test New

Did anyone find out what frequency(LF-MF-HF) the X-Terra NEL coil(s) operate at.?
 
From the ebay listing:

"The unique offer for owners of detectors XTerra.
Give a new life to the detector.
Diameter of the gauge 12 "x13"
Frequency 7.5кгц
Support of all models XTerra
Increase in depth of detection to 40 %
You more anywhere will not find the best offer.
Guarantee 2 years."
 
...yeah...MT has it right....seems it's 7.5Khz which is what I wanted.
I have exchanged a few PM's with the Capt. He bought his direct from NEL via Western Union. Seems quite a simple process. I have the necessary info you need to give Western Union.
The easiest way is to find your nearest WU place which is probably closer than you think. Give them the info and then wait for the coil.
I had some leftover money in my Paypal account so it was handy this cropped up......I've exchanged a few messages via Ebay with him and he appears quite genuine.
He's sorting out the incoming Paypal issue in 3 days apparently so I said I'd hang on.
He's got good feedback but has only bought items and not sold anything.....that's why he didn't realise there was an issue with Paypal.

The Capt has been getting some great results with his Omega Tornado.

.....just an update guys!!

Have successfully transferred money to the gentleman in question in the Ukraine. I have continued to exchange emails with him and he remains quite genuine
in my mind.
I just have wait for it to arrive now. Hopefully it'll arrive before me and my detecting buddy go away on our long weekend rally in the UK.
I don't think many people there will have a Tornado coil so I'm expecting some quizzical looks and some scratching of beards!!!!

Gaz.
 
Hope you take some comparison videos of plated coins when you get the coil. Congrats by the way...
 
.....yeah no worries......I'll do some loads of vids!!!!!

Great Gaz, thanks for the information. How did you finally successfully transfer your money there, by Western Union or PayPal.??

Yes, and a vid or two of course.!

Now I want one. I will wait and see. I think a lot of us will want one now.
 
....paid him through Paypal Dave.....once he got it sorted.
I have a tracking number and it's on it's way......I wanted to get hold of a Tornado coil before they get shut down by Minelab!!!!
You'll probably have to get one direct from NEL which is simples using Western Union.
I have the NEL payment details if anyone wants them.

Gaz.
 
.......got my Tornado coil delivered today guys!!!!
If the weather is okay, me and my detecting buddy will do some initial testing. We plan to have two XTerra's side by side, one with the 10.5" MF DD coil and mine with the Tornado coil on.
We are going to try and capture this on video so I'll post it the weekend if anyone's interested.

......the XTerra has confirmed that the coil is a DD MF coil by pressing Menu Select and then holding down Accept/Reject.

Gaz.
 
I'll be waiting impatiently for a video.

Please do..looking forward to the testing videos and the Nel Tornado dd coil looks huge compared to the 10.5 dd coil.:yikes:
 
.....here we go guys!
I've posted a separate thread in case anyone misses it.
Gotta say.....I'm REALLY impressed with this coil.......

Enjoy....

Sweet! Thank you!

I've heard that they are soon to release a 3kHz coil, and when they do I'll buy it for sure.
 
My Tornado coil for my 705 came today. What a great bit of kit. I am very impressed with the build quality. It only took 10 days to come. Its a big thumbs up from me.
 
Hi.....FYI people,

I know a bloke in Australia who bought one less than one month ago...the coil just broke !
the Xterra no longer recognises it :shrug:
