TESORO SEF COIL

Let's all take the "high road" and say all hands involved are well intentioned and on the up an up with all bases covered and the SEF is as great as it is said to be and everyone wants one for their Tesoro. Back up a bit and consider just what then would you be expecting of Tesoro considering the whole matter. First off I would say under the circumstances, if you have 2 cents worth of loyalty and trust for Tesoro's ability and concern for safeguarding their product and customers (thats you, remember) you will consider what their position is /has been over all these many years, that has paid off in benefits far above any other Mfgs.Tesoro trusted Kellyco years ago and it proved to be a mistake. That speaks for itself, if you will listen ! Tesoro continues their policy of protection for their product and us.When/if Tesoro comes out with a situation for the possibility of, and a reccomendation for hooking me up with a SEF Coil on any of my Tesoros, then I will think on it. Untill then I will just have to do without. For those that must have a SEF, get yourself a machine, and coil from Kellyco, and your problem is solved. HH Charlie
 
Notice how fast he is sweeping the coins? Notice what happened when he slowed down the speed? Something to consider with any coil for those who haven't experimented with sweep speed in disc mode.
 
I've known guys who bought these things for their MXT's. I wasn't impressed. Some were impressed, others were not. I did hear complaints about them being heavy after a while of swinging one of those things. If they were actually the greatest thing to have, every person with an MXT would have bought one by now and there would be nothing left in the ground! Evidently, they are still not the magic bullet it's made out to be. And for that kind of money to buy one, I'll pass thank you. I'll stick to the factory made coils myself. At least I know they were made for the detector I am using. If someone who has money to blow wants to buy one and test it out, more power to ya! I'll be patiently waiting to hear what the results are.

I have to agree. As I mentioned in another post, when those SEF coils came out for the White's they were all the rage too. Funny I didn't see too many guys after while running around with them. Maybe a handful did, but for the most part, the factory coils were always noticed on the machines. So that tells me two things: Personal preference and that these SEF coils are NOT the magic bullet they are hyped up to be. Yeah, maybe they work well for one person, in a particular situation. However, if they WERE the magic bullet, don't you think that is ALL you would be seeing on the machines these days?? I mean c'mon. I'm sorry if I'm a downer and please, don't take my word on it. If someone would like to shell out the jack to experiment with one, by all means go for it. In fact, I'd like to see someone do that so that I can hear what the incredible results will be. But I'm willing to bet it's NOT going to be a magic bullet that will outperform what Tesoro already makes.

I'm done with all the advertising hype that goes on in this business. I got all caught up in that hype with another manufacturer and I spent a ton of money keeping up with all their "new and updated" coils which by the way didn't perform any better than the stock coil I already had!! Each time they would come out with a new size, configuration, etc, it was always the same hype "incredible separation!" "Incredible depth!" "Extreme stability in bad ground!" I chased them all, each time a new one came out. What I found was that none of them gave any dramatic improvement in stability, depth or performance over the standard stock coil. Yeah, I was disappointed to say the least, considering how much darn money I spent. Same performance, same separation, same depth, same old, same old no matter which coil I put on. One may have given just a tad bit better separation, however the bottom line was what was in my goodie pouch....and the results were not that dramatically improved. I wasn't impressed and I spent a ton of money that could have been better spent. I'm sure I added to the economy's well being and made the manufacturer a bit more wealthy, but it didn't do much for me, personally, from my experience with all the latest and greatest coils from other manufacturers. What I discovered is that my Tesoros with the tesoro coils found just as much if NOT MORE than all this hyped up "new and updated" stuff. This is all one person's experience and humble opinion. But I'd like to hear from someone that has used one with their Tesoro and to learn of the results of that. This time around, someone else can spend the money to experiment. I'll wait for the reviews.

SEF = "Symetrical Electromagnetic Field". Same principle as DD coil.

hello there sacetro you have my attention i just bought one for my deleon and was wondering if you could tell how much more depth you got out of it and how accurate is the tid meter from there?
 
Hi, for us is not so important if a TDI corresponds to one type coin or other .
I do not really have noticed if both coils generate the same TDI for the same coin.

It's more important, for us, the capability of removing soil mineralization.For this task SEF coils works fine.
Obviously it is also deeper for the difference in size.
 
Just ordered a 12 x15 from Slavitoo, so for all of you who posted and for the zero persons that bought, I can and will let you know what all of you have been wanting to know about the coil for the Tejon.
 
actually on the other forum there was a guy that i talked with that had 12 x 10 SEF for his tejon and said he really liked it he claimed it added 30 to 35% more depth and was finding stuff he had'nt before, i'm hoping the one for my deleon will be here any day soon!
