I was snooping around the Detech website and came across this paragraph,
"Detech is the first to build coils with magnetic sensors, enabling pulse induction detectors to discriminate between ferrous and non-ferrous metals."
Is this the secret of the Impulse?
Would love to hear the thoughts of the detector electronics gurus here.

"First Texas Products - because they can continue to make and sell a proven product at ever more attractive prices to new and existing customers."
First Texas is forced to lower their prices and find new outlets for their products. Why.? Because most of their old products can no longer compete
with the new cutting edge units their competitors are offering. I talked to a dealer 2 y

I have the simplex, I don't have the Vanquish. But what I .see with the Simplex, It would not surprise me when it comes to depth, The simplex eats the vanquish for lunch.

Flintstone, the Simplex is awesome for the price, But it does not have the adjustability and coil options. Its a Hi performing , somewhat basic detector. I like it but want more adjustments and coils, so I bought an Anfibio also.
Example, in the park setting, the 3rd tone starts at 43, however the zinc pennies ring up in the high 60's, which causes a lot of aluminum trash to ring up as

I too have been super impressed with the Simplex. As deep in relic mode as the Nox I had, at a park with nasty soil. I decided to get an Anfibio also based on the S+ experience. Received the PulseDive as a freebie
promo for buying the Anfibio. ( promo good til the end of the year) . Dilek and the boys at Nokta/Makro rock!

I just received an email from Quest that they are coming out with a new pulse hand held for under water. Featuring what looks like a 3" x 8" rectangular coil, with the electronics in an 8" pinpointer style housing that bolts onto the coil. Coils will be interchangeable, and also a rod can be attached to the end of the control housing, giving the diver a longer sweep. They did

Hope all turns out well.
One just never knows. My wife had a low grade fever for a week in June. Turned out to be leukemia. It turned our life upside down and inside out. But she just finished up
her last of 5 monthly chemo treatments, and is doing well. Life is getting back on track.

Steve gets a 5 star rating from me also. The weather is lousy, but the Simplex knocks my socks off with air testing! Can't wait to try it in the real world.

N/M rocks! So many companies and retailers lost the basic skills of communication. Refreshing to be reminded of the good old days when our businesses did communicate this way.

Providing you are getting A Simplex? For myself, I would probably want a 5 or 6" round coil, and something in the 5x 8" size. Or even an 8" round coil.

Dilek, don't let the Low IQ negative posters posts bother you. Concentrate on the positive. Your company is awesome. Those of us with 2 or more brain cells can cut thru the negative posts quickly

Still awesome performance for a $300 machine. Is your unit an extremely hot one, or will they all perform at that level, that is the question. Tom, I know you can't answer that .

Im looking for a low priced , hi performance waterproof machine. Looks like Simplex is it. Any idea when they will ship to the usa, Dilek?
Ps nothing wrong with giving the competition a poke as long as you are honest .It happens all the time in the free market world.

I used a hookah years ago on the inland lakes, and found a lot of gold rings in 5-7 feet of water, just out of reach of the wading detectorists. Good luck!

sweet finds! Good timing also with the gold price breaking out to 6 year highs! Hang on to that gold for a year or two before you sell , as gold appears to be headed to $3000 an ounce.
