The deepest Metal detector

This looks like a PI metal detector
I think you guys are not looking at the video. The man has the detector above the "cave" setting on the ground and it is connected to what looks like a 1 square meter coil. He is putting various metal objects under the coil at what looks like about 2 meters distance. when the metal object (e.g. the 5 gallon metal gas can) the detector above the him detects the gas can. It looks to me like the detector is very likely a pulse induction (PI) type metal detector hooked to the big 1 meter coil. So it is not a dowsing LRL. I may be wrong but that is what I am seeing in the video - a standard PI metal detector. It has a nice glitzy display to show signal received level but the rest looks pretty standard PI
There may be a little sales "fraud" going on as the first object the man takes into the cave looks like a coil wound on some PVC pipe. My bet is the small handheld coil is resonant to the big PI coil frequency and will increase the ability of the PI detector to detect the small metal coil the man is holding.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink, you can give a man knowledge but you can't make him think. Pretty much sums up your attitude friendOriginally posted by Qiaozhi View PostAnd that's exactly what it is ... "imagination" (all in the mind).
In other words "self-delusion" and "selective memory".
But as long as you're having fun, and not hurting anyone else, go ahead. It just leaves the treasures undiscovered and waiting for someone with a metal detector to pass by.
Oh well... I tried. 
By the way I have various metal detectors and 2 PI models with the 1 meter sq loop also. these are called the Deepers 7 and model up from it, the 9. You use research first and then intuition/dowsing to get you into the general area, then the fun part, the metal detecting. But as you point out I'm doing no one any harm.
And yes I am a serious treasure hunter, but not for the reasons you might imagine.
BTW, these PI machines are $2250 each. Pictorial evidence on request.
Last one this time

So now we have the truth.Originally posted by DavyR View PostBy the way I have various metal detectors and 2 PI models with the 1 meter sq loop also. these are called the Deepers 7 and model up from it, the 9.

Research is used to find the general area of interest; guesswork (i.e. dowsing "intuition") is used to decide where to start detecting; and then the treasure recovery begins, using (you guessed it) ... [drum roll] ... a metal detector!!
And of course we must not forget (no pun intended) our old friend "selective memory", who conveniently fails to give credit to the long hours of research, swinging the metal detector and digging.
Oh whoopee ... look what I found with my dowsing rod!

TTFN.

Sarcasm is said to be the lowest form of wit, it also has to be said that you are not very good at it, judging by the above response.
Have a nice life friend.

Please deal only with the facts, and try to see beyond your own personal belief system. Metal detectors do not require the user to "believe" that they work, unlike the medieval practice of dowsing.Originally posted by DavyR View PostSarcasm is said to be the lowest form of wit, it also has to be said that you are not very good at it, judging by the above response.
By the way, I wasn't being sarcastic. I was simply explaining the reality of the situation. Not that I was expecting you to take any notice.
Perhaps you should take your dowsing diatribe over to TNET, where they are more willing to suspend belief in real science.
