White's TDI Pro

[Saving Tennessee History]

HI,


I am looking for a good used TDI Pro to purchase. I have spoken to White's about their TDI SL and they inform me that it runs much smoother than the TDI + TDI Pro models.

Is that the consensus of the users also?

What other perks are there to the TDI SL?

Thanks

My Pro is smooth, not sure what the controversy is about that....I recently had my Pro at the Whites factory to have the headphone jack replaced and when the technician brought it out to me he stated it "had all the mods", so maybe the later models were tweaked by the factory as they came out. Not sure, but stability hasn't been a problem of mine.

I think the original TDI was susceptible to issues as there is lots of talk on the forum about mods being done by individuals to those units.

I have seen many tests and the Pro is quite a bit deeper with its power pack than the SL. The SL is lighter however the PRO is hip/chest mountable making it very light to swing.

Thanks Mountain Flyer , have you any experience with the new Coiltek coils for the TDI?

No experience with Coiltek, but just received a new nugget finder sadie coil after I compiled all the test results from Karelians recently completed comparison testing over in OZ. I am taking it out for a test drive this afternoon.
