grubstake Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Nothing but good stuff to come from COILTEK. Outstanding coils for sure if there even close to the Platypus. Grubstake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~LARGO~ Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 A big AMEN to that, Grubstake!I love that new Platypus mono, and it paid for itself the first time out!Now if things would start drying out some, we could all go beeping...This old staying in the house is the pits, but gives me time to check outmy equipment, make necessary repairs, and think about how I can be a more effective nugget hunter, like getting rid of any bigg a..belt bucklesor metal in boots, cause I know I have heard my boots talking to me in myheadphones each time I took a step, and that isn't good a good thing. ~LARGO~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grubstake Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Gary, everyone can say what they want, but that Platypus was the best thing that ever happened to Coiltek, Now even better things are on the front. Now that Trevor has his company, his Ideals, and he listens to the everyday hunter. How could you go wrong? The best Damned coils in the world.

Ted Scott Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 It's really nice to see Coiltek with a nice, lightweight larger mono on the market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin nuggethunting Posted February 5, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Hello Guys, I've been testing both of these coils, along with a few others not listed and they are amazing. The new Goldstalker Searchcoils are so lightweight, very stable (don't false), excellent sensitivity and great depth. With the 14-inch elliptical Mono I've found nuggets down to 1 grain with the GPX-4000. My partner found a small 1/2 Dwt specimen with the 18.5-inch elliptical that was nearly 12-inch deep! I couldn't believe it when he first mentioned it, but went back to see where the nugget was lying on bedrock. Coiltek has done some amazing things to these coils. Take a gander at the picture below. Also, not sure I will have any of these coils available for sale at the Phoenix Gold Show next weekend, but will have several of them on display if you want to see in person how light they really are. Questions, give me a call or shoot me over an email about them - auplacers@yahoo.comRob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Hi Guys ,You clearly like the platypus mono. Can you elaborate as to why you like them? .? The new stalker 14X9 looks sweet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grubstake Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 adam, they are very stable, water proof 100% and lite weight, eliptical and go deep without falsing. The DD was a very good coil, and the mono is better on the 4000. cost is not much, Check on Robs online catalog, I think 229.00 if I'm right. will find small gold a a good depth and large nuggets to. A banger of a coil for sure. Grubstake. 100% waterproof is the main advantage for us in the motherload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin nuggethunting Posted February 5, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Hello Adam, Grubstake and Friends, The Coiltek Platypus series are hot! One of the main reason is they are 100% waterproof. There has never been a small waterproof searchcoil available for the Minelab SD/GP/GPX series. Now Minelab users can snipe Rivers, Creeks and even work the beaches with the big Minelab PI's. The Platypus is also very stable since it's filled with an epoxy material. The coil windings can't move since they are surrounded with this material, which makes they "false free" and "100% waterproof." The Platypus series also come in DD Pro and Mono. I prefer the DD Pro if you're working around a lot of trash or want a bit more mineral immunity. However, the Mono is the hot ticket if you're looking for the most sensitivity and depth. I don't know much about the GoldStalker series since they are so new. I do know they are freaking lightweight and very sensitive. Not sure about the prices on the new GoldStalker series. Take care,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wes Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Rob, Are these new coils waterproof also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin nuggethunting Posted February 6, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Hello Wes, To my knowledge the new GoldStalker coils won't be waterproof. Waterproof coils will be a bit heavier since they are filled with an epoxy substance. These new coils are noted for their size and lightness! I've been testing them for some time, just couldn't talk about them until now. I'm sure the first batch that comes in will sell extremely quickly. Take care,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wes Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Thanx Rob, I might be interested in a 9x14 when they arrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Thanks for the info Grub, and Rob... Down to one grain with a 14X9 on a GPX sounds nice , wonder what that coil would do on an SD series ? Have you tried it Rob?Grubstake, I cant go and buy a platypus when theres a goldstalker series right around the corner... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grubstake Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Yeh, I know, but it is based on the Platy. just not waterproof, but then if you don't need waterproof, like we do most of the time up here. What I'm saying is if its got COILTEK on it, then its good. They don't deal in junk. Grubstake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coiltek Posted February 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Hey All,Just wanted to say hi and let you know that we are busy working on the batch of Goldstalkers which have been ordered for the US.If all things go well they should arrive in very early March along with the DD PRO ELITE coils which have been ordered too.It has been a very crazy time at Coiltek due to these new coils so I haven't posted much on the forums but have enjoyed reading all the comments on the new coils and seeing more gold being posted.I am looking forward to you yanks getting them in your hands and trying them out and as Rob would agree they have opened up a new era in coils from Coiltek. Rob, you did a great job in keeping the info quiet so we could ensure testing was thorough and controlled. You are a great person and thanks for your commitment to Coiltek and the industry as a whole. Without people like you the industry and prospecting in general would not be as fun. Cheers mate.Take care all.Trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Trevor of Coiltek You are right about Rob is a great person and we like buying from him because of great service.I have always used Coiltek coils because they are the best in what I like for me on my detector.You keep making outstanding coils and myself with others will keep buying them. I wish when all these new detectors come out this year they will be made to take your coil.If not it may be their first down fall. Take Care!
