Gidday guys, l run my TDI SL with the Detech 8" mono coil, absolutely love this combo here in Oz. It,s Litz wire and its quiet, very sensitive on small gold at good depth. Everytime i have been to bendigo, i have found gold.
Smallest piece found has been 0.07.
Largest being 1.13g.
I am however going to build the 16v mod, if this does give the SL an inch or two better depth, i will be more than impressed, as it is, i love this combo of whites and detech unit.
The specie pictured was in ironstone, it was a good 4" deep in hard pack, i cracked it open to find this very nice 0.90g nugget.
X4 of the bigger bits around the coin are from detecting, the others are pickers from sluicing.
The clean nugget is a 0.47g dug up over 4 inches deep.
I have only been detecting on the small settings but being successful on all outings.
After i detect a small area, i clear the branches and rake if the ute is close by.
I have never done any youtube videos of my trips and finds, this is one thing i am keen to do because the Whites tdi sl does get a bad wrap from ML users.
I have used the Sadie coil but found it picked up more ground noise than the Detech.
I have no reason to post crap on this site, everything stated here is all true and correct.
Hopefully in 2 weeks when i return to my mates place in Bendigo, i will remember to record some live digs for you all.
Cheers
