- In this video Andy gives the new 10 x 5 #coiltek coil a good run for the money against the #minelab 6 inch coil . in this shoot out he uses several coins and some other miscellaneous items which most detectorists might find... watch to see who wins the shoot out!!! some of the results may be surprising!!! watch till the the end for the breakdown of the results...... Thanks for watching!!!
3.35 is where the testing begins........#coiltek #10x5 #minelab #lostboysrecovery
Starting at the coil with 10" and counting down to 1" was really messing with my OCD. I would have turned the scale around.
Yea lol i know it even bothered me after i did it!! My bad buddy! Hope u could at least gain something from the vid…. Upside camera deal i had going on lol
Lol. I’m sure it was. Lmao
i would like to see both coils test for gold targets not for trash out in the field
Hi Andy, just used My new 5x10 Coiltek at a Park. That is a great coil. Found jewelry, coins and a firearm. Look forward to using it more.
Heck yea gary!! I really love it in the water the best!! It cuts like butter thru the creeks
The coil on the wrong side of the measuring board made the video unwatchable; however, I appreciate the effort and skipped ahead to the 17:00 mark for the results. Thanks.
Yea it was kinda backwards lol but thanks for giving it a go!
I'm more concerned with separation and Sensitivity than I am depth. If I'm concerned about depth I would just buy a bigger coil or stick with the stock. Sorry I'm a jerk
Naaa your good maybe a seperation test is in order???
Exactly
curious what the gold results would have been using the gold setting.
Looks to me that the 10x5 coil hits pretty solid on targets and had a slight depth increase at least in the air test. Glad I preordered one
It does have an advantage buddy! U will like it! Thanks for the comment!
At last, the ratio of performance to cost, I'm keeping my cash and carrying on , great video...from the UK
Thanks bud! Appreciate inwas able to help consider subscribing more vid to come buddy!
@@LostBoysRecovery cheers, I'll keep watching buddy, I've been detecting here in the UK for Forty years, the minelab Nox 800 is a great American machine, the coils they supply are perfectly good... cheers take care an keep safe👍
Thanks buddy!
@@LostBoysRecovery no probs...
@@derekhayward167 Australian machine.
both coils are very good and so was the vid. thanks for taking the time.
Thanks andy!!! Maybe I will have some more videos a lot of people were requesting a comparison between the two but wanted to see the difference More so with recovery speeds
Between the two
This was perfect. All things equal with exact performance comparison of the two coils I’m interested in. Here’s my take. For coins, not such a big difference. For small gold the minelab was 50% better ! I see a lot of gold being found with the 6” coil on TH-cam. I live in a Gold Belt area. I’m buying the 6” coil. Iv done my homework but your video with that tiny piece of gold drove a nail in Coiltek’s coffin and saved me big $$. Thank you !
Thanks buddy for the great feedback! Glad inwas able to help ya out! Im hoping to be one of the first with the new manticore with some how to vids as well! Coming soon!
I run a 6" on my CTX when warranted.
Personally, I think that having a small coil such as that or these is more beneficial than having a large one if you had to pick one or the other.
Just my opinion of course.
Def agree my friend! You are so right!
I can’t wait to get my Coiltek Nox 10x5 coil.. it is just one step from getting to me in the mail.. but was delayed for Independence Day.. so that’s fine ...
FREEDOM first any day !!!!!!!
Nice air test
U will like it buddy! Thanks for the comment! Happy 4th!😊🧨🧨🧨
Id like to see a stock 11" vs 14x9" coil
Yes i use the manticore now but some more depth tests with that i forsee maybe
Looks like to me there aren’t much difference between the two coils. If you wanted to go deeper just put the factory back on or get the 15 in. Now I wonder how much difference there are between the factory and the 15”. Thanks for sharing Andy.
Thanks buddy! Sorry my inch reader was kinda backwards! But yes u are right! I love my 15 inch coil!!!! Thanks for the comment! And for your support on my SUNDAY livestreams!
Sorry I can’t do more. You ought to do the comparison to the factory coil to the 15” coil and see what the difference is.
when testing for gold nuggets set to -----GOLD 1 40mhz MULTI off ALL METAL ON and sensitive 15 -20 and it will ping loud 6 inches on small gold if using its regluar settings it wont look at after all its a treasure and it will not give numbers to id gold usa as a vlf gold finder
Nice! Thanks for the killer tip!
Expecting the 10x5 coil to arrive any minute now at my door!!
Its a great coil perfect for in the water!
Son what you probably don't realize is that when your target is in the ground the elements join somewhat together and you can pick up signals at greater depths because air acts as an insulator. Hope this helps. Plus I have one question ❓ Have you noticed that with the minelab 800 and 900 that you get back aches and also in your spine ? Let me know please cause I am in my 60's and was just wondering if it was because I am getting older or that maybe it may have something to do with the pulses of radiation coming from the machine. Appreciate it and will wait for your response. God bless you. 👍✝️✌️
G'day from Australia Mate ,
We have both coils ..lol.. my wife got the 6inch I've got the the 10inchx5imch ,,,
I did have the 6inch for a few months now ,, it was not bed it just like I need more out of the coil ,, now I give the 6inch to my wife to see how she go with one,, I got the new 10x5 coil yesterday going to find out tomorrow to see how I get on with the new coil ,,,, Thank you for show what you did mate Australia coin are different then the American coins tho, I might have to do a broad one too to see our coins go on it,, Ok see ya ,
,,Happy Hunting,,
Thanks tony u will love the 10x5! Its s awesome coil i love it in the water the most! Thanks for visiting buddy!😃
Hey, I like the video but have a couple questions now. I am trying to decide which coil is better for that small gold, the 6" minelab coil or coiltek 10x5? You thought the 6" did better, you are one of the few on TH-cam that have both coils and the only one to use a small piece of gold for a air test. From a air test done by Simone on TH-cam with #9 birdshot, he found that with small items the center of the coiltek coil is the dead zone or it is the least sensitive area and the tip and heal of the coil are the most sensitive areas. You waived the little gold piece on your test in the center of the coiltek coil and I was wondering if you could do that test over again with just that .1 gram gold nugget and move it across the tip? It would be great if you were in gold mode 2 also and include the stock coil in that test with 6" and 10x5. Not sure if anyone else out there has any first hand experience with the 6" coil vs the 10x5 coil for small gold and which works better for depth and overall gold targets? Thanks
Dang id do that test for u but i sold the 6 inch coil since then i like the coiltek alot better to be honest
Cool, no problem.
Wow! They finally have an oval coil!! I'm gonna have to get one!!
Yeah it is awesome in the water definitely a must if you hunt in the creeks
I have more videos of us using that coil take a look
I was just saying I have 3 coils for my 800 and none of them are the shape I really like! Good Video!
That’s all good and said but you only did it American coins and only a small piece of gold, I’m sure that all coins from around the world will no doubt read
different numbers some higher some lower. I don’t expect you to have a whole lot of world coins at hand but would have been good to compare say an Australian 20 cents piece compared to say quarter dollar even though size comparison 20 cents would be slightly bigger, personally I think of you go to a 6 inch you’ll lose at least 6-8 inches in circumference of a target, your depth reading was pretty spot on with the 6 inch coil 7-9 inches would be average for park mode but beach mode would go slightly deeper, as I have found here in Australia,but overall thanks for the time you put into it
Thanks sniper! That was my first go at one of those vids😄 i was one of the first to have that coil when it came out here in the U.S.
A nice test indeed, but for the money I would go with the 6 inch minelab coil. The Coiltek will hit a few targets deeper , but Minelab has never done well in air test.
Thanks @detectorguy i like the 10x5 in the water alot cuts thru the water well and gives just a slight bit more coverage
Nice work, guys!
I know you did an air test but you need to up the sensitivity on the detector and maybe it of picked the items up more
It was a comparison test not depth test
I like the test, but I have to say the winner is the 6" Minelab over the 10x5 Coiltek. Reason being at 6" x 5.5" for the Minelab it's getting great depths and will fit in tighter areas compared to the 10x5" coiltek. A good comparison would be the 10x5 to the stock 11" minelab coil.
Thanks !!!!!! Sure I am buying Coiltek
James! U will love it! Thanks for the comment hope you subscribed for my videos!
Would love to get this coil if it was actually available anywhere
I think you will like it when u do
Great comparison!
Thanks!!! I needed that lol! Im trying to help others.....no other vids about this yet i saw!!!
Awesome test mate👍🏿😀
Awesome comparison!💖
Much love!!! Thanks for the comment!
you are testing two different coils. one round and one elliptical and two different sizes. the elliptical is larger, so if you are using the same settings when testing how can you get an accurate assessment. different coils and different sizes require different settings
Yea im aware totally aware of that... it was a comparison video I wanted to keep the video a little bit shorter and not go for hours but i totally agree with the comment thanks for the feedback @andy avery
Would you say the coiltek coil had more stable VDI numbers at depth?
To be honest it was very close didnt seem to be tons of difference to me really! But that was a great question!
Thanks for this 👍🏼
No prob!! Consider subscribing if you haven’t already and thanks so much
@@LostBoysRecovery already did brotha thank you
Not very scientific, but makes a point. I'd run the test in different settings, use the Gold program if you're targeting gold nuggets.
Thanks Roger for the feedback sorry to get back to you so late but yes I wish my depth gauge I made wasn’t upside down lol! Thanks for checking out the channel hopefully you liked it enough to subscribe😉
Why would you knowingly make a video with numbers ass-backwards? Also .1 grams is 1/10th not 1/100th grams.
Yea my camera angle has to be switched lol so thats why.. and did i say 1:100th in the video?
Lol i did😂
Did you do a FP after you changed coils?
I sure did i even mentioned that in the video i think!
it doesn't worth the price of more than 220 euro ! I have the little one 6" and I use it on the beach and sea, so I will never change it with this and pay a lot of money. The 6" coild works so good enough. In the water the 6" Coil is the best one.
Yea for its size the stock is pretty good the biggest advantage i saw really is def more coverage really! Thanks for the comment @patrick Pat
My 6" for my CTX was $300 usd. Then again the spare battery pack was $150 lol.
@@LostBoysRecovery Never say Never, I just bought also the Coiltek and I made my test yesterday, not in the sea. I saw and confirm that it goes a little bit deeper just 1 or 2 inch, not more but it's ok. I payed half the price of new and it's just like new. We will see.
I love that thing in the water. It’s a great coil. Hopefully you end up liking it. I think it is a great tool for the machine.
That's commonly known as an air test, not a depth test. Depth tests are done with buried targets in the ground. I don't get the point of having the numbers reversed.
Yea i said air test i thought my bad i know noone likes them lol... that done with camera from a different angle
Good😄😊👍👍
Don't mind the air test, just had two issues one was having all the coins being left in the coils field and of course the nugget not being in gold mode. If you're trying for a representative of a by chance nugget, a larger one would, ie: 1/2 gram or more would be better Thanks:)
Yea not sure if the coins flat on the table woulda madea difference maybe?..good point… as far as the gold thats all i had and if if could pick that up i figured it could prolly hit on a larger piece😀 but switching to gold mode woulda prolly been better i totally agree! Thanks for the tips buddy!
can we expect a comparison of the coiltek 15 to the stock 11 or to the minelab 15x12? would be great to see. Thank you.
I dont have those coils buddy this one was hard to get as it was lol! Wish i could help with that test for u!
The width of the coil will determine the depth not the length.
Very true!
10x5 way better then the 6
You got that right buddy!
He was moving the coins too fast
The nox is one super fast machine..
Crap coil i sold mine a day after purchase
U didnt like it? Bad depth mind tellig us why?
Curious on your thoughts..
Sure I tell you my findings. We buried a small roman coin about 12mm in diameter down at 4.5 inches and no matter what settings we used it could not see it we tried everything. So we tried the xp deus with 9 inch hf and even though it struggled it did see it. We put the standard coil back on the equinox and it didn't have a problem seeing the coin even about 4 inches above the ground. So those people saying there's not a lot of difference in depth between the 10 x 5 and the standard nox coil they couldn't be further from the truth
@@walkingthefields1217 thanks for the honesty buddy! Good tips you share! You should subscribe to the channel love to see ya stick around!😉
unreliable needs testing with objects buried in the ground for a long time so you can get the proper results but a good video for a rough guide
I agree 100 percent this was just a crappy air test but hopefully shows at least some good info for ya!
@@LostBoysRecovery yes indeed sir thanks for sharing
I like 50 tones better
50 tones is good too! Thanks for the feedback buddy! More vids to come!
