CORS Detonation 13 x 14 inch DD Coil for Minelab FBS, E-TRAC and Safari

The CORS Detonation is a 13 x 14 inch (33 x 35.5 cm) Double-D aftermarket search coil from CORS Labs, in the version for the Minelab FBS detectors: the Explorer, E-TRAC and Safari. CORS places the Detonation in its everyday series, which it recommends as a substitute for standard coils for novice and advanced users, and says these coils do a fine job on highly mineralized soils.

Its X-TERRA versions are a different build. CORS makes the Detonation for many other detectors too, and the versions we carry are in our CORS Labs search coils collection.

When to use the Detonation 13 x 14

Owners of an Explorer, E-TRAC or Safari who want a wider sweep than the stock coil, without carrying a 15 inch coil, are the shoppers we would point to the Detonation. Its 13 x 14 inch footprint clears a broad lane on each pass, so it pays off on open ground where finds are spread thin. On ground packed with trash, a coil this size hears several targets at once and the tones run together; a smaller coil sorts those spots out faster.

Overlap each pass by about half the coil width and keep the face level through the ends of the swing, where a large coil tends to tip up. Depth gains from any coil change with soil, target size and settings, so judge the Detonation on the ground you actually hunt. Our metal detector coil guide explains how coil size and type trade coverage for separation.

It weighs 670 g (23.6 oz) without the coil cover, and CORS notes the weight may vary slightly with the detector model. The coil face uses composite materials, so CORS says the Detonation can be used safely without its cover if required, and the coil is completely waterproof, with a cable strain relief that also seals the cable entry. The outer shell is impact stabilized, UV resistant plastic on a robust mounting bracket, and the coil body is filled with epoxy resin. CORS fits a high-strength cable with a larger conductor cross-section, made in Germany, and connectors with gold or silver plated contacts.
