Tried this out yesterday Sid. Ive found the M11 is my starting point on pasture and pulls up all the decent large and small targets. Then ive used the M8 and its massively better identifying things the M11 thought was iron in the same area, and at a good depth 8-9". Then ive gone over everything again maxed out 26-28 with stabiliser on and off and still found goodies. Ive even done the low conductors after that and its unreal how still picks out things. Your analogy of a wide beam being sent down with the M11 and a thinner beam with the M8 is absolutely bang on. The only thing i would ask is can you do a video on the ID screen when you have a tricky signal?..... that bleeding on the screen either from top to bottom or the other way round .... and how you would approach a digger or not......
I'm not surprised the smaller coil hits better...I only used the 6 inch coil on the Nox 800...I've been chomping at the bit to get the M8 coil for the Manticore...it's finally available here in Canada, and I've got mine on order
Bang on Chris! I have the same machines and coils , love the 6 on my nox for mini area hunts when my energy level is low after work and will be getting the 8 for the Manticore for next season 😉🇨🇦
Nice vid Sid. That 11 inch does like to be swung faster and wider though, Which u didn’t try, it picks things up as the EM leaves the target. I just noticed it one day; low and slow doesn’t apply like it used to.. …
Great video👍 This proves my thinking that the stabaliser is there to use on iron infested sites to sacrifice the smaller targets for unmasking the bigger targets.
Thank you Sid, that’s a real eye opener, I expected the M8 to be better winkling the good finds from the iron, but running the sensitivity high and missing the cut half really surprised me! I came off a field that has always produced Roman, Saxon or medieval, but I ran the 11” a bit hotter than I normally would, now I know why nothing came up. 🙄 P.S. I won’t be using the stabiliser or filter either. 😂
Great comparison! Every site will still need to be assessed but basically the 11 for a clean field and the 8 for trashy ground or thick scrub. I'm only new to the Manticore so I've learnt a lot from this video. Cheers bloke! If I see you in the pub I'll shout you a pint.
Thanks for the video Sid. I just got M8 coil and I was running sensitive to high it seems. The spot I’m doing right now has tons of square nails and such. I also has on stabilizer at 4. That’s not good either from what I just watched on this video. Great video 😊
Great video Sid. I was a bit surprised but you have pushed the point home. As you know I love the small coils and I do love me the mate on the manticore and now I might just have a few trick to try on a couple of sites. Thanks. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Wish Phil a Merry one too. Take care mate 🦘🦘😁👍
Used the 8 inch coil today 1st time out with it buried a hammered 6 inches down in my field 100% better and more depth with the stabiliser off and all terrain general is better deeper than low conductors plus managed to push the sensitivity up to 26 and 28 never had it that high before......last week I used my 15 and 11 coil on the same field no hammered....8 inch coil 5 hammered and a token plus all the other tiny bits all on a rough plough.Once it's been rolled il use the 15 .....Great coil
gday from oz,i mainly water hunt ive got beaches that are very mineralized with red reef rocks under the sand the only program the works is the surf and seawater i can get the sens up to 21 but even at that it falses turn the iron volume on and its like a machine gun even when theres no iron, i have to run at 18 sens to get to hear those deeper small targets but they are so short reports they sound like iron falseing its a difficult machine but has great potential,try the surf and seawater on your cut half.cheers
It's all about the chase, getting the rarest of finds we can in the location were in... albeit on a beach for modern, cival war sites or roman villas... gotta love thus hobby ay 👍👍👍
brilliant video, demonstrates running sensitivity too high will miss targets. Very surprised with the stabiliser/filter, when is this actually good to use?
A didn't get that far before a commented lol thats impressive. Have said all along tges something not right about the machine compared to my nox. And that little coil bangs that half cutt out its impressive 👏
Hello, I appreciate your videos they're great, I'm still learning the manticore, but I've had a little bit of success with it, Recently, I got into a spot near our railroad, and it appears to be a Civil War camp, The spot Covered with iron spikes, Railroad spikes, Nails, Fence Barbwire, I have recovered Civil War buttons bullets Some small brass targets, But I think I'm missing a lot And I am constantly digging piles of iron, Is there any video or that you would recommend for a site like this that is Extremely Heavy on the iron, I appreciate any advice you might have on this site, Thank you
Hard to say without being there but if it's a private permission you have time. Firstly clean area of the easier targets the ones that say dig me.. then play with settings, try a faster recovery, lower sens and then try opposite, then start to investigate the trickier targets that sound mixed with iron... if it sounds good dig it, even if the screen don't look pretty and target trace is mixed, trust your ears... and also i recon the m8 coil will work a treat on that site
Thank you still waiting for the m8 to come in the mail perhaps next week, the iron spikes and rail spikes, square nails sound good, I don't mind digging trash but man there is so much in there its horrid, I took the 900 in there on factory and it seemed to pick out more good targets manticgore seemed to miss over the same ground? but still, just tons of iron I'm digging, just takes up much of my time with those@@englandshistory
"I like the way you think "😉 Thanks for explaining your thoughts in easy and sensible manner. 👍🇨🇦

Good demo! My M8 is still in Customs. Had to get one from Down Under.
Thanks for putting the effort in Sid, convinced me to get the M8 coil before the M15.

Sid’s school of detecting, very informative! cheers bud much appreciated 👍👍

The 11 " is still a beast in iron it's just the m8 is perfect for the worst iron infested areas
@@englandshistory some of my oldest permissions in Tasmania, early 1800s, are very iron infested. M8 should be perfect. 👍
Another very informative video Sid,really appreciate all the time and hard work you do to bring us these videos 👍
My pleasure pal 👍👍
Great vid Sid ....Mine as just arrived today will let you know how i get on 👌
Very interesting and helpful as are all these comparative type of videos you post.Happy Christmas to you and your family
Thanks sid small coil on order looking forward to getting out with it 👍shaune in Kent happy Xmas mate 🎄
Great video, that little coil looks like a great addition 👌
Well done Sid great information I will try this thanks mate have a great Christmas take care
Thanks for the video Sid. I just got M8 coil and I was running sensitive to high it seems. The spot I’m doing right now has tons of square nails and such. I also has on stabilizer at 4. That’s not good either from what I just watched on this video. Great video 😊
How about a comparison of the lg24 and M8 to see how close they are?
Great video Sid. I was a bit surprised but you have pushed the point home.

Merry xmas to you and the wife pal xxxx have a great one
Great video!!! Sid number 1 metal détection 👏 👏 👏
Glad you enjoyed the video buddy

Great vid Sid. I’m having one of those.
👌
Great video Sid ,thanks
That helps a lot. Thank you!
Great video mate👍
Interesting videos Sydney thank you
Great video cheers, Sid.
Another belter, I'd like to see the 15inch test 👌🏻
I'd like to have a 15 inch coil 🤣🤣
@@englandshistory Wouldn't we all 🤣
Thanks for vid.
Sid when I tried my 8x5.5 coil I found it to be Toe & Heal dominant
Good luck, bab. Gold hams for everyone next time xx
Nice one Sid very useful
Спасибо!

I'm gonna do a video soon testing out all the different modes on the trickiest if targets... Will be interesting to see how the other modes perform
Hello im deus ii man ,this vid was spot on brill .
Cheers buddy
This is fascinating, I'm in Wyoming USA we have some pretty good Western detecting sites here but nothing like almost two thousand year old sites.
It's all about the chase, getting the rarest of finds we can in the location were in... albeit on a beach for modern, cival war sites or roman villas... gotta love thus hobby ay 👍👍👍
thanks for sharing your knowledge.. love the videos..
Well useful cheers
brilliant video, demonstrates running sensitivity too high will miss targets. Very surprised with the stabiliser/filter, when is this actually good to use?
Great video. Which mode were you running? High conductors, low conductors, general?
General fast with my beast mode in... I'm gonna do another test trying all the different modes out too
Great video. My m8 is in the mail on its way to my house
Have been using mine at 1. Thats clear as day sounds nice at zero
Do the same test please with the stock coil
I like that little coil. Seems to be banging the silver out. Do a test please see how the big 1 responds
Thats the bang you looking for. That coil looks to be the game changer. I like it 😎
@@Coineyes-UK I also use the stock coil in this video to compare the two... just watch a little longer into the video 👍👍
A didn't get that far before a commented lol thats impressive. Have said all along tges something not right about the machine compared to my nox. And that little coil bangs that half cutt out its impressive 👏

you got my settings

M8 doesnt come off my Manticore on the anchor sites 😜
Will stick with the Deus 2 frickin sounds a nightmare that manticore never be confident with that in the fields 🙉🙉🙉🙉🙉🙉
It's same with all machines, you soon suss out the language it's speaking...
Good lad 👍🏻🧑🦯
Spanked it 💪🏻
That stabilizers a bit unforgiving
I need that smaller coil
Good patch that get some small Roman in it
Pak...Pak...Pak......Pek....pek...pek
