Long-range vs pulse induction: which finds deeper?
Few questions cause more confusion than this one. Long-range locators advertise reach measured in kilometres; pulse-induction detectors promise depth measured in metres. They are not competitors — they are tools for different stages of the same hunt.
What long-range locators actually do
A long-range locator does not pinpoint a coin under the coil. It points you toward a concentration of gold across a wide area, so you can narrow a hundred hectares to one promising hillside before you start detailed detecting.
What pulse induction actually does
PI is a depth instrument. Once you are on the promising ground, it punches through mineralisation to find targets a VLF would never hear — but it works metre by metre, not kilometre by kilometre.
Long-range finds the field. Pulse induction finds the gold.
The most effective operators we supply use them in sequence: locate broadly, then detect deeply.
