Does anyone have a Tesoro Piranha schematic? Piranha is a PI metal detectors coils are actually a circular printed circuit board (PCB coil) encased in epoxy resin - coils are the same as for Tesoro Sand Shark ( 358uH - 11R). Piranha is capable of finding the smallest gold chains and jewelry in wet sand, salt, ect.

How do you know this ?, what is your experience with this MDPiranha is capable of finding the smallest gold chains and jewelry in wet sand, salt, ect.
are they very stable in the salt ?
How does it compare to the Sand Shark ?
thanks
cheers

Hi 6666. I have no personal experience with Piranha. The internet has a few comments about the Piranha but all positive. The design is probably similar to the Barracuda and Surfmaster. It is interesting that 7-inch coil will be useful when searching for smaller targets, such as gold nuggets http://www.tesoro.com/info/manuals/older/piranha/
The Sand Shark is the Pulse Induction metal detector that is controlled by microprocessor technology. Sand Shark has an add-VCO Mode. Sand Shark has operating Frequency - 600 pps, pulse delay min 22 uS - as well as Barracuda. Sand Shark is not so "deep" as Barracuda (this is not my experience but others from the internet). Schematics for the Sand Shark has a Carl-NC (if it is found in its archives)
Sand Shark has a grooming THRESHOLD by using the "F" SET "F" ADJUST similar to Barracuda switch SW1 (see the link "Set the Audio Frequency for the Normal Mode" http://www.tesoro.com/info/manuals/current/sandshark/ )Comment

Merry Christmas.
Does anyone perhaps have a photo of PCBs in a better resolution for Piranha metal detector?Comment
