Probably. High Freq VLF units excel on that type of gold, but mineralisation is always the opposing factor. They can't punch through high iron soils like Pulse Induction units can.

Yeah I've used the older 12x7" Advantage on the E1500 and that's a great match. A newer version would be most welcome.

Sorry Steel phase sp01

@@Dazv07 yes you can do. Gives you a lot more control over the audio.

Yes, back in the days when I had more time

@diggingwithphasetech Ken, my father in law told me so. Have a wonderful day.

No worries. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.

Got a few scrubby areas where I'd like to give it a swing. Might be a bit easier to poke around compared to the 11".

I would be very interested to see which is better at detecting a big chunk at 50cm or more.

@@Gardener7 The 6000 will likely do better on bigger deeper. Depending on what you mean by big chunk though, a 7000 or 5000 will likely outdo the 6000. BennyProspector has a good video on a range of bigger targets.

@@diggingwithphasetech I was wondering if this E1500 would miss deeper targets, even if they are big nuggets.

Thanks 👍

Ultra Fine. Depth is a tricky one, as there's so many variables. I'll let people do their own testing on that or let the videos do the talking.

@@diggingwithphasetech people can’t do their own testing prior to purchasing. That’s why we need to show the reality of what is the likely expectation. Of course, different ground, different coils will bring in variables. But a reseller saying to a potential buyer, it can detect to 500mm. .

Honesty is everything in this industry. With a 15 or 16" NF, I can air test an aussie 5c at 33 cm. Lightness, ground handling, sensitivity, adjustability and price are its strong points.

​@@diggingwithphasetechSo would it detect a 1 Oz nugget at 50cm?

@@Gardener7 It's not a deep machine for bigger targets, I think that would be beyond its limits.

No not gold. Broken down mica schist, like tiny flakes. There are big slabs of it on surrounding hillsides.

Round of equivalent size will always go deeper on larger targets. An elliptical has better sensitivity, and signal on deeper targets can be a little sharper, just maximum depth potential drops off a little quicker. I prefer the 17x13" for all-round use, and the 15" round when I'm going over a patch.

Yes. The Detech 8" Mono works great. 11" Ultra may not calibrate fully in the Ultra Fine mode, but works great in Fine.

@@diggingwithphasetech how does the 6" go

@@Mat-lt1sf Haven't tried one, but if it's wound like the 8" it'll probably go really well.

Haha, I'll sometimes keep hitting the same area then bam an obvious signal pops out! I swear them nuggets are walking around down there haha. Check some of my previous videos, I often talk about settings. With the 12" I would start off pretty well in factory presets, High Yield/Difficult, Volume on 10, and Ground Balance on Semi Auto. Thanks for watching

@@diggingwithphasetech Might be the things we don’t think about wether, temp and what way we sing the coil Okay I will thanks heaps

14x9" Evo is an excellent choice, but if you need a smaller footprint coil, then the 9" Coiltek Elite or 8x6" Nugget Finder Advantage "sadie".

Thanks, appreciate your reply 👍

Thanks for watching, and for your comment.

General yes, I like it for bigger targets. Not a fan of Low threshold - I've trained my ears to listening for those faint variations.

$999 AUD

Thanks, the detector is going well. The pick of the coils is the 14x9" Evo and 9" Elite. Been flat out recently, so hopefully get more time in the field in the coming months.

Thanks. All detectors have their strong points. SDC has limited controls so it's all about how/where you swing it. Still a very capable machine.

@@diggingwithphasetech Agree about simple controls, but after trying out a 5000, and selecting "wrong" settings, and finding almost the same stuff as on "proper" settings, I wonder if the SDC (electronics) is simpler/better Just need a bigger coil I guess.

Thanks for watching!

Would have been too much ground signal. That can work well with DD coils in the right ground.

Cool, thanks for your feedback.

@@diggingwithphasetech no worries glad machine came out and it's good 😊

Only after a test cycle. I don't know of any product that can do that instantly.

Извините, я никогда не использовал 25-дюймовую катушку Advantage, но я бы всегда выбрал более новую катушку, если бы у меня была такая возможность.

Yeah I agree. Nice talking to you today. Check this video to see that 15" coil on the 4500 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nNpf0x__ceM.htmlsi=Z-wc-yZo82oQlf9a

I kept checking the ground as I was digging it out and it wasn't responding, so I knew it was definitely a target causing the signal. One day it will be a golden one at that depth.

Yep I bet. I got one at 0.05 with an old GP extreme, but this 0.085 would be totally invisible on that machine. All gold is not the same.

I'll be doing a test on bigger coils in later videos, but a 17x13 Evo works fine on it, so a 14" elite should work well too. I've got a 17x11 elite here that I want to try in the field.

@@diggingwithphasetech Ken said you know your stuff. What are the bigger coils like on battery power, Nenad?

@@chuxxsss big or small coils won't make a difference on battery drain.

@@diggingwithphasetech Unless it is a large DD coil. Transmitters all the time.

@@chuxxsss The E1500 only runs mono. If you plug a DD coil in, basically the Receive winding is ignored, but it will run the Tx winding as a mono coil. So 11" DD becomes a 11x6" mono. It doesn't receive on both windings like on a 4500 or 5000 if you have a DD coil in Mono switch.

VLF vs PI would be a good topic for a future video, thanks

This vid wasn't about testing against other machines. I plan on doing a part 2 with a different selection of coils.

@@diggingwithphasetech Yes of coarse - good intro to Algo but maybe in future that same nugget of Algo against GPX SDC.& Z - im always surprised by the smallest bit of wire my Z finds an inch or so deep ⛏️

The 14x9 Evo works great, so the 14x9 Elite should too. The first test was to see how well the old school coils would go on a hard to see target. Lots of people have these old coils kicking around in the shed.

Sorry, only measured the second target.

Nice one. Yeah, those flat/smooth pieces it can get ridiculously small.

Thanks John, yes the 12x8 is brilliant on the 5000 and 4500. On the E1500 it is better in the Fine mode - it's a little too hyper sensitive in Ultra Fine.

Would love to see if 1500 can handle up to a 15” evo. Probably pushing it.But that’s what it’s about!

I'll show some bigger coils in a later video.

Thanks for watching. Hope the 4500 finds you plenty.

Yes, more videos coming

Great will forward to seeing them. Also a question, I can't see any mention of Bluetooth connection for headphones. Is this something that you are thinking of or is there a work around for it.

@@marioncamilleri9303 there is no built in wireless, but there is a 3.5mm headphone jack. So any wired headphones will work, and also any wireless headphone and transmitter pair. I have tested the Quest WireFree (2.4 Ghz wireless) and it works great. There is an optional 3.5mm to USB cable for them so you can plug the transmitter straight in to the E1500 without needing any adaptors. The Quest kit is available with Pro headphones, lite headphone or just a Transmitter/Receiver pair (Mate kit), which you plug your own headphones into. All options are here: phasetechnical.com.au/headphones-audio/

Great. Thanks for the quick reply.

It's all covered in this thread. I did some testing on the machine and had a little input into the UI. www.detectorprospector.com/topic/25182-algoforce-e1500/

Ok, cool. I’ll have a read.

No, doesn't tell difference between ferrous and non ferrous. Only shows target conductivity.

Si hay oro superficial presente, que sea lo suficientemente grande como para detectarlo (no polvo), entonces el SDC2300 lo detectará.

No depth is more comparable to the SDC2300. But yes you can install bigger coils.

People need to look at all the features both units offer, and see what appeals to them. The SDC2300 remains an excellent gold machine. It's also waterproof which the E1500 isn't.

When yo get the sdc 2300you get the coil with this one 2700 $ then you have to get at least 2coils your still looking at 3 .4 thousand $. Thats the price a good 5000 or 4500 or 2300sdc 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Most likely short for algorithm. An algorithmic force 😄

No worries

Hvala Nenad ☺

Whether in heavily mineralized ground or not, the different modes won't introduce dead zones in terms of depth or target size. Basically, each mode utilizes two ground-balanced detection channels, each with its own dead zone. However, the design ensures that when one channel experiences a dead zone, the other channel maintains strong sensitivity. These channels complement each other, effectively covering up each other's dead zones.

Thanks Bruce Candy for making two ground- balance detection possible.@@diggingwithphasetech
