Can I use my Silver uMax coil on my Tejon detector?

[Rene G]

I just purchased a Tejon and find the coil a little heavy. I wonder if I can use the Silver uMax coil on the Tejon. It is liter and smaller so I think it would be better in trashy areas also. I saw where one person was using different coils that might not have been Tesoro brand.

Thanks for any help.

Im guessing no?

Im sure someone else will answer your question.

Click in the two types of coils near the bottom to get a listing of models.

Nope. The Tejon uses the "Delta" (4 pin) type of coil connector.
The Silver uMax uses the Epsilon type (5 pin).

Details of which detectors use the Delta type are at:

Details of which ones use the Epsilon type are at:

I got both and just looked at them side by side. Another confirmed "nope" I'm afraid. Different plugs.

Thanks for the trouble I appreciate it. Guess I'll buy one for it some day. They are not priced to bad. Just thought I might luck out :-)

Be happy with your Silver and your Tejon. I have both too ! Last time I used the Silver in a pasture that had been a CW Camp , I extended the coil all the way out and it was so light that i was making big 10 foot sweeps ! My friend with me with the Etrac eyes got big ! LOL

As stated the pins (connector) is different as I believe the Tehon is a H.O.T. circuitry detector and the other is not so won't fit The Tehon-Cibola-Vaquero are same heads other heads are either 10 hz or 12 hz so wont work. rwd mo
