To make a fair test you would need to put both machines on maximum power. One has a three levels with a boost mode and the other has five settings, to test them both on their own setting number three is a little arbitrary and does not make it clear especially when you are testing to detection failure.

Go with the Nokata 1st in the water for a 10 meter by 10 meter, or wherever you want, on highest setting with 5" coil 1st, then 8" coil. After those 2, then use the Quest to see if it finds anything the Nokta missed. Before going to bigger coils. That might be a good way to see the differences in the water. Good luck.

Doesn't sea water amplify magnetic signatures? An air test may read as an attenuated signal.

Want to buy one..but lm very confused on which one to buy...not great results for both

Doesn’t salt water make an induction detector more sensitive as it helps “load up”the induction ring…?

Hope their have also products like Quest detector that you can adjustable,.pulse dive adjustable much better also.thank you for showing us

Hi Nathaniel what was your favourite once you used them in the sea?

I think both turned on was causing interfearence i own the pulsedive and cant fault it please try the test again using one turned on at a time only thanks

Hello, thank you

Tienes que poner sensibilidad máxima en pulse dive, esta en la posición 5 un pitido largo.

Great comparison Nathaniel, we'll have to see how they do in the water. Just had 10 knocked off myself a day ago, but that's youtube life now. See you on the next one 🏻

Bought Quest Pro today plus the larger round coil, which can pick up deeper objects. Just wondering, with the Quest Pro not picking up objects until quite close to the coil, did you taken off the plastic protector ring?

oooh that is interesting to see what they they pick up. very cool! good luck! new friends here
