NEL 15" DD Attack Coil

Does anyone have any experience with a NEL Coil hard wired by Kellyco onto a new Excalibur? I would like to know if this voids the warranty and if you had any trouble with this coil.
 
I can tell you that I have a waterproof connector mod on my Excal ll and run many different coils. One of my favorite beach coils is the ATTACK. knee deep in the wash, damp sand and dry sand it is a killer. I can run the sensitivity around 7 without any falsing. I also run the coil without a coil cover ( just my preference ). It is well balanced on a long, behind the shoulder Anderson shaft and I can stay out 5 plus hours with no fatigue. I have found chains and the smallest gold ear rings with this coil. The only place it struggles is in black sand.
As far as the warranty I have no idea. My suggestion would be, if you are going to de-solder the stock coil, why not do a connector mod so you can use the stock coil as well as the ATTACK and other coils. Wish you luck.
 
If mod is done by Minelab repair center at Kellyco it will not void the warranty as they are an authorized Minelab repair center, if done by anyone else it voids the warranty

I have to question the fact that Nel states on their web site that this coil is for the Excal.
The only way to put this coil on a Excal is to cut the wire and hard wire it.
There is nothing said about who has to put it on.
 
Not just anyone can put it on! Need to know how to open the pod. How to remove the board. How to de-solder the coil wire. De-solder the battery wires, replace the end cap with a new one. Re-solder the new coil wire. Know the proper sequence of transmit wires and receiver wires. Re-solder the battery wires and re-install the boards. I have done many, and it is not for the faint at heart. Good luck!
