I own the AT Pro when I'm looking for more depth. I've been looking at the NEL 13"and 15". I am having a problem with the weight of the machine as well as the inconsistencies that that some reviews have shown. I heard that the Tornado 10" was lighter but I also wanted to cover more ground. is there any Coyle that I'm not thinking about? Can somebody help me and steer me in the right direction to make the right decision. I definitely have to go deeper than my 8" x 5".

For the weight issue try a straight shaft in carbon fiber from either Anderson or Rods by plugger. You may want to try a simple bungee type detector harness especially with a heavier coil.
Best of luck.

I use a make-shift harness when I plan on swinging my F75 with a 15" coil for longer than 2 hours. It makes the detector neutral in weight. Works for me. I mainly use the 15" coil in fields and other low target dense areas as well as going over a permission after I gridded it in 2 directions using the stock coil.
