    Excelerator 18" coil - anyone with experience?

    I would love to hear the pros and cons regarding the 18" Excelerator coil on the Etrac. I have the 6" and love it, but am considering the 18" for plowed fields, ski slopes and the like. My two biggest concerns are how much depth I would get over the pro coil and the weight/balance of such a...

    It's official! I'm a believer!

    Hunting an old spring and stage station, I found an old dime. I handed it to my hunting buddy to look at while I was filling my hole. Lo and behold, it turned out to be an 1857-O seated Liberty. I nearly wet myself!!! I hope to get pics on soon as it turned out really nice. I think I may be...

    Becoming a believer in the Etrac....

    After my first month with the Etrac, I have to say I'm well on my way to joining the "Etrac Fan Club". For thirty days now, I've resisted the plaintive looks my White's M6 gives me as I head out the door with the Etrac. The Etrac has rewarded me with a notable find on every hunt thus far (I...

    Nothing Old...but a whole lotta fun

    This didn't turn out to be much in terms of value. But it was a whole lotta fun to find. Total was $2.43 - 1 quarter, 12 dimes, 11 nickels and 43 pennies, plus the marble and the key in the same hole. I found it in the middle of a ghost town near here. Oldest coin 1968, newest 1992. The quarter...

    Question for you techie types

    I would like to use NIMH batteries in the battery pack. I have been using NIMH batteries for several years in other devices and like feeling at least somewhat "environmentally responsible" in not buying and tossing the alkalines. Anyway, now that I'd like to try them in the Etrac battery pack, I...

    Apparently...you guys are right!!! :chase:

    Took the Etrac out to a park that I feel I have covered pretty well with my other detector. Within an hour, I had found my first dug buffalo nickle (1935 - the only other one I ever found was laying right on top!) and a silver Washington quarter (1945). I must add however that I dug MUCH more...

    Metal Detecting in Rivers??? Need your help! :unsure:

    We have a river nearby that has seen a lot of tubing, kayaking and rafting action this year due to the inordinately hot weather. The river is maybe 5 feet at its deepest, has a mostly rocky bottom and a temperature of about 60-65 degrees. On any given weekend, hundreds of water sporters floated...

    Starting out with smaller coil?

    First, let me say I'm a complete newb to the Etrac...maybe 4 hours total. I've used two coils on it thus far - the stock coil and the 8" minelab coil. I've made better finds with the 8", it's lighter and I can pinpoint much faster with it. So, here's my question to you experienced hunters...

    SE Pro Emulator

    I have thoroughly enjoyed using the Etrac Emulator and had heard of a similar program for the SE Pro. Does anyone know where I can find it? Thanks,

    Learn on the fly OR Learn then fly?

    Hi all, Just got my used Etrac about a week or so ago. Read the manual cover to cover. Then started reading Andy's book on the Etrac. Trying to make sure I understand every topic before moving on to the next. On page 58, Andy suggests that it's foolish to head out with a detector before you...

    Super dealing with mohayes1046

    Great deal on detector and phenomenal job of packing.... You'd have thought he was mailing Faberge eggs. Everything arrived in perfect shape. Detector was obviously very well taken care of. Thanks Mark!!!!!!!!!

    Differences between 10" DD coils

    Anybody have any info on the difference between the White's D2 10" double-D coil and the same size model by Excelerator? I mean, besides the $100+ price difference? :confused: And... while I'm asking, would I gain anything over the 6x10 Eclipse coil? Overall, I've been very disappointed with...

    SEF coils for M6

    I'd dearly love to hear from anyone who has experience with the SEF coils available for the M6/DFX/MXT/Spectra. I will be using them on my M6. I love my 4x6 DD coil, but if I could get as good or better separation AND more depth from the 6x8 SEF coil, I think I would have to scrape up the coins...
