Im not too impressed with this coil once I put it on my machine and swung it for awhile, it's heavy. Kelleyco must be trying to get rid of the old heavy coil, it looks like I got the last one.
You hope it goes 'DEEP' and I'm curious what it is you are looking for, and how 'DEEP' do you think it needs to go? And what size targets are you trying to locate at-depth. There comes a point where there's a trade-off between enhanced performance on Depth of smaller-size targets and bigger-size targets. Typically, bigger-size coils are best suite for finding bigger-size objects. You can get a little over a 'standard' size coil and gain a little depth, with the right coil.
I mainly relic hunt. I'm hoping to use this coil to go back over some old spots and with the added 2 1/2 inches of depth find targets I'd missed in the past. I will also use it for finding artillery shells and cannonballs. I know what you are saying about the depth thing. With this coil I should be able to get a beer can at 2 feet LOL! The 15" coil is just like the 5" coil when you need it, you need it. I will tell you this when I do use it, it won't be for long because that coil is heavy.
Yeah it is pretty heavy and it makes a lot of racket. I'll probably just use it once in a while when the need arises.
I’ve been using the T2 exclusively for relic hunting for the past 8 years. I have not found a coil large, small, or anything in between that does a better job overall than the stock 7x11 coil.
I agree....but also rely on the 5” round coil as well. This new Superfly is going to give the stock coil some time on the bench, however. It’s quite good.
Hope you’re right about the Superfly.
i've used the 5" DD almost exclusively on all the T2's I've owned this past 14+ years, and seldom the ugly and noisy 11" BiAxial. The new Super Fly is definitely a more comfortable coil to use, much, much quieter around EMI than the stock coil, and seems to eek out just a wee bit more depth.
Iowa Relic is right. The new NEL Super Fly is a really good coil to take the place of the stock 11" BiAxial. Deadly quiet in and around EMI that makes the stock coil shiver and quiver. And that's coming from a guy who usually isn't a big fan of after-market coils ----► unless they work well.
After my experience today with the new Superfly, I can feel a re-enforced trust for the stock 11” coil.
This site I was hunting has a very consistent output of EMI. There is a transformer station less than half mile away and I’m hunting 0-100 yards from the lines. (Large steel poles, 3 feet diameter, lines, a set of 6, maybe 70-80 feet over head.) For over a year now the EmI output has been consistent with one overall small drop in severity occurring in the early spring of 2020( a repair most likely)
I think I have to agree with you, the stock coil is the best. I'm sending the 15" coil back.
