Looks awesome. Have you had much of a play with it yet?
Also is that the whites tower handle you've got.

I asked the question over on AEGPF about manufacturer, why QED specific, etc. Goldman replied. Purely a prototype coil at this stage and may never make production stage. At least that is the info he provided. I am sure this was something Howard was telling me about 12 months ago and he felt it had great promise. Hopefully it comes to something.

Not the info I was told from inventor, detech had proto type 12 months ago. First proto type was sent to bugs and he found the 5 gr plus nugg pictured on various forums. Guess we just keep waiting who knows. I emailed Ian yesterday no response as yet. :Y:Northeast said:
Hopefully your info is on the money Pinfire. Howard's description was something quite a bit different to a usual coil. Be nice to have something new on on the market :Y:

I was with Howard the day he was testing it and he was quite impressed. We hunted a reef line, but had been beaten to a couple of patches along that line very recently. Howard returned the next day and extended the line further north where he found the small color. The line dropped into private property where we could follow it no further.

I must get out and try it.
Weather and other priorities have prevented me from giving it a run. I must get into it.

Howard apparently loaned the coil to Al for testing without mentioning it to the builder (Ian). All good. No probs.
This is a very interesting winding which is very sensitive and stable. I look forward to hearing Al's experience with this new coil development.
The last I heard was that an Aussie company was interested in producing it. Let's hope that comes to fruition.
