I've got an AT Max and want to go do a lot of detecting at the beach, as Galveston is just about 25 miles away from my house. I've been already doing so with the supplied DD 8.5x11 and it's working very well. But I'd like a bigger pattern for my sweeping of the area. I've seen a few on Amazon and around and some are unclear whether they work with the Max, or just the Pro.

So what would be a good one to get for this activity? And I'm talking dry, wet, and possibly under the surf water.

Also, as a bonus question, which one of the small (Super Sniper) coils would be best for working around trees and up against buildings in other areas?

Thanks. Just getting back into this hobby after a very long time away.

Detech Ultimate 13” is an awesome coil. Deep and lighter than stock coil

Hi retrodog, if you check out the Hoover Boys on youtube, they use AT max with Nel Coils and like them........63bkokr

Tornado seems to be a very good coil for the Max. My preference for a while now has been the stock coil. Go figure. You just have to walk over it.

I use the NEL Storm coil, its a great coil especially compared to the stock coil, really stabilizes the tones, but get ready for some arm pump because itll wear you out till you get used to it, then you can win arm wrestling matches no problem
