12 Volt Electric Gold Dredge Progress. Suction Nozzle VS Jet Log.
I tested two types of tri-jet jet lock venturi up against a suction nozzle and managed to increase suction by 25% with a custom 3D printed closed face 6 blade impeller.
For now, the initial 3D models will be available for free download through my website:
(Thanks for your patience as I figure out the correct way to link files...)

HI Kyle Your inventions will shine. That is a lot of pressure for a small unit. Pretty cool.
Great videos, thank you for sharing. You definitely put a LOT of time and energy into making technological advances in the area, and I am sure I speak for us all when I say we appreciate your efforts. Looking forward to what's coming up next!!
Have you considered hooking up a solar system to get more battery life out of it? Panels can be found for less than a dollar per watt if you do some looking around, and charge controllers can be found for under $20. With all the sun you guys get you could probably keep it running all day.
Greetings from Alberta Beach. I spent my own time in Wapitraz. Very interested in what you come up with for subsurface. Season one or two of Bering Sea Gold had a guy do it but didn’t show much if I remember. BTW. Testing my own sluiceless flour gold recovery system and nope, not talking yet! 😜
hey Kyle. I've been thinking about your subsurface sluice. Yes there will be backpressure from the discharge, and this may help slow discharge down to a chatchable speed. Your forward velocity is still going to exceed your downward pull of gravity, the key to gold catchng, so instead of having riffles like ramps to catch gold, maybe you could have them like ramps on the top of the sluice to drive the water down into the mat? roof ramps..lol. flood gold will be a problem as its hard to catch those surfers, but i think you can figure it out, and when you do, you will have reinvented the wheel! cheers, Prairie🤠
Triple jet water jacket please put on your sight.
Hello from Alaska, love the content, and your clean up sluice mat video we got the same kinda gold here and the info I learned has helped so thanks
I have a question what if you had a section where you added a inlet in the system to add another pump for more pressure down the line.
I don't know if I just missed it but, have you ever looked at an infinity suction nozzle design? BTW I like your brain
Looking great Kyle! Happy to test in the states when your ready :)
The subsurface gold recovery is going to be really interesting. Regardless of how you end up doing it, I'm pretty sure you're going to have to slap a pretty fine screen on your suction nozzle.
Awesome Kyle, when is the field test ?
i hope you'd be able to do some dredging soon wid
