i have to make a coil for the surf pi kit. Can i use a wire of 0.3 mm instead of the 24awg (0.5) or the resistence is critical for that project (usually the resistance increases with a thinner wire ) ?
Hello, Welcome to my channel. Use this coil calculator, it works very well. www.geotech1.com/forums/showthread.php?17909-Coil-Calculator Please subscribe, I have many more videos coming soon.
I think that the inductance of the coil was about 400uH if I remember correctly. The damping resistor should be calculated as I show in my video. th-cam.com/video/CrJ5tFFmWyo/w-d-xo.html
Hi, Thank you so much for the great demonstration!!! hope you will make more videos !!! and I also have a question !!! I m going to make a coil with 50 cm diameter , 400 uH coil ! And I m going to use a 0.50mm diameter copper wire (24 AWG) but the coil calculator in circuits.dk ask to use a 0.54 mm diameter coil instead of 0.50mm but it is the only size I can buy from the market will that make any effect to the performance ??? it would be great if you can help !!
I have a doubt, first you have to put the plastic tube then the mesh or a copper foil and then electrical tape over it? Or do you have to leave it after the mesh or the foil

Hello and welcome to you, I am not familiar with the Minelab SDC2300. The coil needs to be matched to the detector so first you need to know the proper inductance value of the coil that will match to the detector otherwise it will not work properly for you. You need to know the uH before you can build the correct coil. Cheers
@@Golddustdetector I am an Indian too. First of all, never get into metal detecting if you hope to get gold nuggets. Its just a fun hobby. And making a coil requires hardwork, i would suggest to buy a coil since you have a good detector to use it at its max potential.
did you solder the ends of the coil wires to the wire feed that runs up to the control box, and, does it interfere or does the coil detect that joint since it is in almost the center of the field, or does the shrink tube block it.
Hi Matt, I seem to recall you asking me this before at some point. Yes, the wires are soldered in the coil enclosure, the solder joint is not detected, it is a very tiny joint and is moving with the coil. Are you making a new coil?

G'day from Australia, i have no electrical training but i have an interest in building my own coils specifically to suit a minelab.

I specifically want to know how to read DD coils, as there are 5 pins, could you be kind enough to point me in the right direction, of course if you have experience with the DD's?
Hello Mate, In order to read inductance you will need an LCR meter. These are readily available and the price is not too dear. I recommend that you purchase the book "Inside the Metal Detector" that will get you started with understanding the inner workings and it has a good section explaining PI machines which are where my interests lie predominately. There is a very good section on how to build a DD coil in the book as well. I have plans to produce a video on a DD build but not in the near term as I have too many irons in the fire at the moment.

And i know these coils have to be nulled or something like that, what meter would you use for that, or would you use a oscilloscope for that?
You can use either an oscilloscope or you could use a good voltmeter. A mono coil would be easier to build at that large size and you could house it in PVC pipe. TH-cam doesn't seem to be notifying me of new comments so sorry about the delay in replying.
@@SurfDetector Yeah mate; know all about youtube and not getting replies,i am from Australia so my interest is in building a large DD to use on my old SD, the highly mineralised soil in the goldfields causes to much false signals using a mono, a 14in mono gives me enough trouble , no way will i be digging 4 ft holes for a false signal, do you know how hard this ground is? have dug at least 3 - 3ft holes for rusty metal, and each hole took a good couple of hours to dig, bloody hard work, this is what i bought it is a " Professional Waveform Multimeter MT8206", it says it is a multimeter and oscilloscope 2 in 1, would this be good enough? and it has the resistance and capacitance measurement but not induction so looks like i will have to buy an LCR meter.

millihenries - not micro. Looks like 0.37 mH which is 370 microhenries or 0.37 millihenries. But how did you get at that number of turns and diameter for the Barracuda? Do they recommend that number of turns etc.?
Hi, Welcome to my channel. Yes you are indeed correct I misspoke reading the display. Regarding the size of the mono coil, the 9" diameter is one that I prefer to use on my water detectors as it has relatively good depth and less weight and water resistance than a 10" The number of turns is figured with a coil calculator such as the one on the Geotech Forum. The recommended coil inductance for the Barracuda is between 300-500uH. The coil isn't relegated to that one detector however, I actually have it in use on my MPP at the moment.

In the mono coil you solder a wire to the scotch mesh, and then this gets soldered to one of the coil wires then you take them and solder them both to the shield of the cable that goes up to your detector.

Good morning, Yes I understand that it is a little confusing to try and explain without a picture. Let me try again. For the coil, you have 2 leads and a shield. You should take a short piece of wire and solder it to the shield. Then you connect that short wire to one of the coil wires. For the cable you have a shield, you connect this to the coil shield splice that you just made. Now you have the two remaining cable wires that are twisted together, cut one of them off. You only use one of them and you connect it to the last coil wire. For the cable connection to the PCB, the cable shield will connect to earth (ground) I hope that isnt too confusing. Let me know. Maybe I could do a short video.
