Deus 11" Coil @ Crawfords

[Rhoco71]

Speaking to Craig this morning and he mentioned he has just taken delivery of some 11" coils if anybody is still looking for one

What is the consensus on the 11" coil?

I am struggling to find any decent reviews of it, though have just found this in case not seen before.

I had mine 6 weeks then sold it couldn't justify all that money for so little difference over the 9"

I have found it is really good in clean fields but on trashy fields the 9 inch performs better , this is i think due to the better separation of the 9 inch coil . The real test will come after the harvest when i can get onto fields that i know produce quality finds The one good thing is the extra coverage it gives you , depth wise it is slightly better than the 9 inch coil. As said in the test report it is expensive for a coil but as they say you get what you pay for and with a five year warranty you cannot go wrong

I'm not keen, it will locate bigger targets, deeper than the 9", but is heavy and you miss the really small stuff that the standard coil picks up.

They must have there advantages ..I was out yesterday and I saw one ( although the bloke didn't have it fitted he was using the 9" and had it strapped to his back ... ?

I have no problems finding cut 1/4 and 1/2 pennies it also got a tiny farthing on a really trashy site.
! dont use the 9" anymore.

Hello

Got mine, tried it yesterday. Like it a lot. Went a bit deeper, and more chatter suggests it's covering more ground. Just as responsive as the 9inch.

Only downside is it's WAY harder to push through stubble than the 9 inch. Even swapped arms regularly so I don't develop one big one....
