Have you been to Tesoro's official website? There's a forum there that will probably answer any question you have. I went there to find out about different, newer units in their line and found all sorts of questions answered. It helped me decide on the DeLeon. Give it a try. www.tesoro.com/

Hello,


I don't know the specifics on exactly how Tesoro set the ground balance for the unit.


I use mine inland--and I've never tried it at the beach or in wet sand. I'm sure there are folks on here who use this unit at the beach though. Hopefully they will come on here to help you out.


I have the 12 x 10 concentric coil on mine, but here's my Warning: if you're in a high-trash area it doesn't work that well. Other than that, I like the coil so far.


The stock coil is an o.k. coil for that machine--and unless you are in an area where things will be very deep, I wouldn't worry about changing. Learn that machine with the stock coil FIRST.


Thing is--with a bigger coil you might cover more ground, but you lose speed. So basically when all is said and done, you've paid $130 for an extra inch. :P
