FWIW, I have a Detech 8 inch round for my Algoforce and find it very good. It’s very sensitive and runs smooth, plus not too heavy or expensive. I think you’ll be waiting awhile for the updated NF coils to become available. They won’t be cheap either.

Yeah, I thought as much, must be like walking behind a bull in a china shop on that stuff.😳

I know Nokta detectors are rugged as I’ve owned a few. my Legend has a had a pounding in all environments and not one issue or breakage. I don’t doubt when their PI finally arrives it will live up to my expectations. I’m also hoping for some cool new features in a modern lightweight Gold...

Footwear is such an individual thing, so what may suit one person perfectly could be problematic for someone else. There are so many variables with shoes and boot comfort and performance, like toe box room, heel support, instep height, arch support, inner sole padding , etc. So all these...

XLOOX, can you run the 12” Evo in Ultra fine gold without any issues? Edit; Just saw your post in the other Algo thread about better stability in Fine gold. This also applies to the 14x9 Evo.

There is a robust discussion on another forum regarding the use lower carbon fibre rods with highly sensitive VLF and PI detectors when hunting for very small gold. It appears that carbon shafts are electrically conductive and that when any movement of the shaft in relation to the coil will...

Nice idea too Leroy 👍

If you're talking about this drive into the hillside at Watts, then it's easier to get to from the top of the gully...very steep going though.

He’s very lucky his ANUSOL wasn’t exposed at the time :eek:

Here it is..... simple and effective.

The Kruzer series are waterproof to 5 metres. I used to own the Multi Kruzer and it was submerged in the ocean occasionally, no dramas. The Gold Kruzer has the same waterproof control box. https://www.noktadetectors.com/metal-detector/gold-kruzer/

Can you still remember where that parking spot was Gordon !😉

Welcome to PA Peter. Being in crow eater land, like myself, you will certainly have to travel some to get to any prospective gold ground. The only public places here in SA are Jupiter Creek and Mt Crawford, both of which are well and truly practically detected out imho. If you are lucky enough...

You’re a bit late to the party Mackka,.... this was posted back in January. https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/threads/algoforce-e1500-new-pi-detector-from-ex-minelab-engineer.42049/

YES..... Nokta also just released this new machine / package. https://www.noktadetectors.com/metal-detector/triple-score-pro-pack/ Minelab definitely has real competition in this segment. And more in the gold detector segment with a new PI from Nokta coming soon, not to mention the E1500...

That’s a bargain for a very capable VLF gold machine...👍

Yes, it’s a veritable smorgasbord out there, with choices galore. As a total newbie to the fabulous world of detecting, there’s no substitute for the opportunity to see different machines in action up close and personal. If there is a detecting/ prospecting club in your area look them up, as...

I noticed you’ve been awol for awhile John, welcome back. I’ve got the E1500 and so far tried the 14x9 Evo, which I think is the best all rounder for sensitivity and depth, but anything flat wound that runs on a GPX as long as it’s not too big. Coiltek Elites NF Evos Detech Ultra Sensing monos...

Yes Pete, I thought the same about the handle issue... This is how I fixed mine. A thick silicon ring over wrapped with a tennis racquet grip. No more hand slipping up the handle 👌
