The golden mask 3+ has a power boost switch which boosts power 30% but puts more drain on battery,it says that it puts 120 volts through coil,that's not right is it,it only runs on 12 volt battery pack,if it drains battery pack more ok its pushing more volts to the coil but 120 volts,cant be right can it ?

Golden mask power boost

Although the battery is 12V a much higher voltage can be generated in the coil. This depends on coil driving circuit, coil parameters, etc. So I think 120 volts is not an impossible value, even higher voltages can be generated with proper electronics. IMO the problem is that 30% more power in the coil will NOT increase the depth detection by 30%. Detection depth won't be increased much but battery will drain quite fast.

I was thinking of getting the golden mask,@ the moment i have the tesoro cibola and was thinking about getting the 12 by 10 DD wide scan coil for it,is this a good coil ?and if the golden mask is a tesoro clone would the coil off it run on my cibola if i changed the plug to a tesoro one?(mines 4 pin)or is the tesoro DD wide scan a better coil,the reason i ask is the price of the DD is £170 new and golden mask coil is about 80 euros.
