[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 573733, member: 4485"] No offence but what's the point of that then? I'll stick to using & recommending coils made specifically for different detectors for the best performance, which is what most would be after, not just whether it works in some form? In a thread on Geotech Carl Moreland says TDI coils have a higher resistance than GPX coils & while they work peak current would be less. This leads me to believe that for [b][u]optimal[/u][/b] performance Minelab GPX specific coils require a lower resistance than that of TDI coils. Less current to me = less target inducing eddy currents & a less intense electromagnetic field? "The stronger the current, the more intense is the magnetic field." [/QUOTE]
