Deus, Racer, F75LTD2 compared on dime surrounded by tabs June 22, 2015 01:00AM |
I am seeing folks asked about different detectors and their ability to see coins in say pull tabs.
So here's a test with pic. The ruler is shown in the pic for scale.
Test was done on a set up concrete steps, no ferrous present period. All machines Ground Balanced to steps.
Sweeps were done in the direction of longways down the ruler direction. I was restricted in sweep directions due to the step.
Racer small OOR coil
In 3 tone gain 85 ID filter 10
Dime swept slowly would yield glints of high tone TID 75, real fast sweeps no high tone at all. Hovering coil and shaking slightly back and forth actual 82/83s in the screen with a pretty good tone. Removing the dime no high tone noted on any sweeps TID reading of 56. Dime by itself reads 84.
F75LTD2 with small coil 4 tone (used 0 disc and higher levels of disc sens levels 80 and 90).
In Bp mode one big target with one tone TID 50, no alerting me to a high conductor at all.
In Je mode, same as Bp mode
In FA mode, with slow sweeps every now and then a high would be produced as the coil trailed away from the dime, not very regular--- very sporadic
In hovering the coil with small shakes, ugly high tone mixed with lower tones heard, window of detection far more critical hoverwise than Racer.
With slow methodical sweeps a super high majority of time no alerting me to high conductor, or even an alerting me to more than one nonferrous item.
Dime alone read 71. Tabs in their positions swept without dime read 50.
btw highere levels of disc yielded no better resuls, same with different sensitivity.
Dues factory Deus fast, 9" coil
Reactivity 3 silencer -1 I could tell more than 1 target was present, consistent TID of 75, Reactivity 4 even more so of showing more than one nonferrous item,
Deus with 11" coil
Reactvity 4 seemed to almost yield the same results as the 9" coil reactivity 3 setting. Still harder to tell more than 1 nonferrous target was present vs 9" coil
Tab arrangement without dime read 56, dime alone read 91.
My summary, in this test both the Deus and Racer both told me something else was present possibly a high conductor coin.
F75LTD2 scored the lowest on this particular test. The only real reliable way to know the dime was there was a hover over X marks the spot.
This test was done for gee wiz, and maybe answer a few folks questions, not bashing any detector. They are all good and all have their strengths and weaknesses.
