12x15 SEF Coil for T2 SE.

[Ahab8]

Kicking around the idea of buying a 12x15 SEF for my T2 SE. The reviews are all over the map so I hoped one of my super smart Tnet buddies could help to enlighten me. I've got some very early sites with deep deep targets. Not real crazy about the idea of a huge heavy coil so I figured this a better choice than the 15" or larger. Thanks guys

I just got an 8.5"x12.5" Cors dd coil for my Teknetics Omega which had only
10"x5" coil also in the hopes of getting more depth.Very reasonably priced at $122 . It's well made and very light. They have
12.5"x 13.5" for $150 and 15" I think is $250. They're available for t2.

Yes the prices seem very reasonable. I'm pretty sure I will get one or two in the spring. I definitely want to try a coil that's bigger than my stock 11" DD. Let me know how you like your new one.

I run the F75 LTD SE. My favorite coil is the stock DD, but I did get a 12" x 15" sef coil for my birthday this last summer. It is a valuable tool in my arsenal. I normally grid a permission and hit it in 2 directions (using the stock coil) pulling all the trash and good signals, This may take a couple weeks to complete. I then go back with the 12 x 15 sef. It does add some weight, but I have a make shift harness I use that makes the weight of the detector and coil neutral. No site is ever hunted out, but after my 3 passes, you better be in all metal mode digging deep trash signals to have a chance to pull a goody, if any at all. I mainly hunt in Disc mode, but have been playing around in AM mode on low producing sites this past season. tHE 12" X 15" coil is great for fields and non trashy sites. You can cover more ground in less time with this coil. I have used it way more than the 5" DD fisher coil. I usually use the 5" coin in flower beds, and in areas where only a small coil is practical.
