    XP DEUS II Introduction | XP Metal Detectors

    Some intriging features I did not anticipate. Not much said about deep target ID which would be a bonus. Some SMF machines assigns aluminum caps to a different "box" so you can ignore If you're a coin hunter but if the cap off feature still masks a coin its essentually useless better to dig...

    Simplex vs. EMI

    Before you ever start swinging hold the detector up parallel to your head and swing. If the noise gets worse that's EMI. The simplex will "simply" be inoperable in certain areas at the frequency it runs at. This will include areas like yards close to high lines. I hunt one old site with the...

    Detector wars??

    This is like beating a dead horse but I have it on very good authority that ML is coming out with a new machine but its not a new CTX which I believe is the last FBS machine still on the market. Frankly I don't know why we need another SMF machine unless it can identify deep targets like the...

    What test or feature would you like me to video on the Deus 2 first?

    Ability to ID deep high conductive coins(before I have to fool with ML) and also some SMF machines assign screw caps to a slightly lower part of the screen than where most coin lie. Spend lots of time on these if they are deep. Thanks

    Deus 2 most anticipated release ever..

    First i promise to not get controversial:) This question is directed primarily to CD and Sube because I hunt mainly with the Deus and 3030 but anyone is welcome to contribute. I do some fresh water and fresh water beach hunting but no salt and no diving so my question is a little different. It...

    What are your beliefs about metal detector? Old Tech VS New?

    And we would not have such a great "critic"

    The Legend is here!

    Dan forgive me if this is none of my business but I was wondering why you would want this machine since you have a 3030? OK i know it will be lighter but I have a friend who has both it and the EQ and thats the EQs primary advantage unless your mostly a relic hunter and need to dig everything...

    What are your beliefs about metal detector? Old Tech VS New?

    Funny but I was having a discussion with a good friend about this topic recently. Given a site that is not highly compromised, an average detector can do just at well as much more expensive models. But in sites that require much deeper depth, high trash, hit hard etc thats where a high end...

    Keeping my XP Deus

    The little 9x5 at 25kfx is a remarkable coil for many types of hunting. Will hit both deep silver and small gold at very good depth. Is my go to for small yards where EMI is a problem or for fresh water beachs for the gold. Above 25 start to lose depth on high conductors but very good for mid...

    Problems with Deus II

    Assuming you mean aluminum screw cap which are really difficult to tell from coins. Can easily eliminate steel caps on the Deus.

    Anyone moved from the Nox 800 back to a CTX3030

    I have a friend and dealer who has both. Uses Nox more now because of the weight but says CTX still deeper.

    Question on changing coils

    It sounds like when you switch to a different coil, you have to go back and adjust both the puck and the headphone on both before they will coordinate with the new coil o/w look like your doing everything fine. Remember when changing to a different LF coil, will retain the settings but not with...

    Problems with Deus II

    ML is coming out with a new SMF so that makes 3 now which is what a lot of folks want. I'll wait to see how accurately and quickly it separates in trash and how well it identifies deep targets since I already have 2 water machines. This is getting worse than buying a new rod or rifle every few...

    Numbers don't show-up!

    Thats just not going to happen with this machine. Its much worse if your using in trashy spots. You have to use a small coil and take baby steps to get the slow processer time to catch up. Forget about a reset. Slow processing is just part of the 3030s dynamic. Its forte is identifying...

    Numbers don't show-up!

    Yall are lucky. I get a read out but have been fighting for over a year with the damn thing not giving me a tone. Am currently working directly with ML for a solution:Di hope.

    Mississippi “A” Coat button

    So happy for you. About 3 years ago found a rare Confederate 45cal Whitworth bullet at a campsite with the HF. Really loves those midrange and below targets

    Get Ready | XP Metal Detectors

    Except for a pulse use all 3 types SF(Simplex), single multi freq(Deus) and SMF(3030). SMF advantages 1. Better in mineralized soil and salt water beachs 2.better at IDing objects really deep(but only with the FBS machines) which have been DCed or very expensive. 3. Are better for those who...

    How i hunt with a 6 inch coil

    Sube, still trying to figure out whats wrong with my 3030. Am working directly with ML right now. May have to do a new one. Used one's not that competitive if you can get a good deal on a new one. One thing I did find out from someone in the know is there is NO new 3030 coming out...

    Deus update version

    Thanks Mike, thats pretty much what I thought.

    Deus update version

    For a long time we haven't talked much about the upgrade version we use I suspect because there is simply not really a need for one since the 5 versions came out which were to help stabilize the old LF coil which most folks don't use now and to eliminate the failure of the remote PP to load. I...
