Happy Sunday, I thought I share a video I stumbled onto, may or may not be relevant to metal detector but still an interesting spider coil video nonetheless.
Coil shielding , opinions on MG Chemicals, Nickel vs Silver vs Carbon, Which would make the better shielding coating, for both PI and VLF coils. I know there is a lot of talk about scotch24 shielding tape but it is rather hard to get a hold of.
Hi, this is my first post, although I've been reading these forums for some time.
I thought I understood the basic principles of a vlf metal detector. You provide an alternating voltage in one coil and read the induced voltage on a secondary coil. You measure the phase shift...
Hi everyone, I am getting tired of digging up pulltabs and nails haha as you can all relate too im sure, I contacted silverdog to see if he had any kits that do discrimination (board and all the components ) as of now, he does not, I have made a few fully working Surf Pi's and a minipulse plus, I...
Hello, I tried to understand how can discriminate in this schematics and i don t understand very well, I have the article that was put on this forum, I studied it but i didn t understand exactly what it works.[COLOR=rgb(33,33,33)] If anybody who can explain me in a few words how can discriminate this...
Hello,
I am currently changing my career and starting a new company, for which I need funds so I am selling things I will not use anymore. That is why I wanted to ask you guys if anyone new the market price of a used ABEM WADI VLF instrument (aprox. 20 years old). Any information would be helpful,...
Which detector principle would be best for this particular purpose?
I need to search a relatively small piece of land to find small silver and copper coins amongst larger pieces of iron (nails, screws, horseshoes). The easy ones have been picked up already by others. I think there are some more, not necessarily deep. Nobody likes to dig iron, me neither. Someone mentioned...
I am a new guy in this field of hand-held hobby-type metal detectors. I have some shallow knowledge about the units. I think that VLF metal detectors is easier to understand than PI. The VLF metal detector often has two coils, which are named as TX and RX. The circuit...
I am an young engineer in training in North America and decided to tackle my first metal detector. Me being nieve, I chose to use VLF detection. I have encountered a few roadblocks in building a coplanar coil. I am on my third attempt on nulling and tuning the coil...
