    A first !

    Had a pretty good day in S. Texas. Found my first Capped Bust coin. Solid 89 , never waivered.

    Thinking about a NOX

    I am a relic hunter. Has anyone taken an Equinox to a site heavily hunted by the Deus and found anything? I love my XP but also loved my Etrac although it wasn't the best in heavy iron. I'd like to get another Minelab and the NOX seems to fit the bill. Just not sure it's leaps and bounds above...

    etrac to vx3

    I have owned both and still have the which I don't use as much as my XP since I relic hunt. The V3i is a hotrod and can be very temperamental if you do not understand what the machine is telling you after adjustment. I find that in the early days I ran it too hot. It's a fantastic discriminator...

    My new Racer 2 Coil has issues

    But no worries. Our friends over at metaldetectors.com are sending me a new one. The one I have won't ground balance for some reason. I bought the R2 for the 5" coil so I won't have any down time.. I love my XP but the MR2 will find the goodies that my Deus just can't see. Very pleased with...

    The Makro Racer 2 is only half as good as my XP Deus

    Three weeks ago I found a sweet 1856 Seated Liberty Dime up against a mesquite tree with my XP Deus but all I could find a few feet away with my Racer 2 was a lousy 1853 half dime. I'm still a nickel down. I pounded this spot with the Deus and I found a lot of good items today with the 5" Racer...

    I'm in!

    Just ordered the Racer 2 especially for the 5" coil. We shall see how it stacks up a against my Deus. Stay tuned for an honest review.

    Racer 2 with 5" coil faster in the iron than ????

    my XP Deus with 9" coil in FAST mode with reactivity set to 5??? If my Deus had a smaller coil I probably wouldn't be shopping. I hunt heavy iron homesteads and want ultimate separation . Who's the king? XP or Racer 2 with 5"Thanks

    Will I be wasting my money?

    I'm a relic hunter 99% of the time. I stomp around the brush down here in S. Texas looking for old military camps and old pioneer homesteads. I run into pockets of heavy iron, square nails, and lots of period junk. I currently use an XP Deus with the 9" coil and it's really good at picking out...

    Some of my relics over the last 6 months

    Love my XP Deus - Best machine I've ever used in the iron.

    My Observations

    Having relic hunted with the following detectors: AT Gold Etrac V3i F75 LTD ATX Tejon XP Deus I can say with the utmost confidence that the Deus is the best. PERIOD! After swinging the Deus and learning its language, none of these other detectors can compete. Not only is it the king in iron...

    Love my Deus! Found my best button yesterday

    [attachment 318295 20150822_145329-240x427-480x854.jpg] https://youtu.be/nKD-Rc_U_oc My Deus just gets better and better.

    my v3i out lasted my run with the ctx

    I have both. The XP is better in heavy iron. I love my v3i though and use it when my ADD kicks in.

    Faster

    I want to adjust my V3i to be able to do in iron what the Deus does. Here's a good example of what I'm talking about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWenrozQ58o&list=UU7Pvj7C1i7Awm151UqFQsGA I'm going to take my V3i out with the Deus tomorrow and see if I can find a non ferrous target with...

    Faster

    Primarily the recovery delay setting, filters, sensitivity. I was doing testing similar to what "detectorcomparisons" did on YouTube. Nail coin nail coin., etc. couldn't get the whites to recover fast enough to see the coin next to the nails. The V3i is an awesome all around tool that does a...
