    Newbie questions

    Hello all, just received my New Deusll. Two quick questions, I see no way in manual to register to start warranty. Second there is a little tiny black lanyard with a disconnect clip. I see nothing in manual that list’s what that is for.

    Got it wet today

    Well I finally got my Nox and new Tony Eisenhower headphones wet today. Went out in our lake , found a kids ring , a token, and two nickels. So far all is well, and I am liking the Nox pretty well in the water. It’s quite different from my Excal., but I do like having a screen with read out.

    Is it water safe?

    I am in a quandary right now, I bought a CTX and am afraid to submerge it, I then waited a while to purchase the Equinox, and now after reading many complaints I am afraid to submerge it. What is the answer to this are these machines safe to use submerged or not? Or is the only truly safe...

    New Minelab

    The new Minelab seems to have a lot of similarities with Deus. An interesting machine for sure. Interesting to see how it actually performs in the field.

    2 silver rings

    Got out with the Deus this morning before it got too hot, nabbed these two silver beauties, plus a little bit of clad at a local schoolyard.

    Deus Bootcamp

    Just returned from Deus Bootcamp today, what a great experience Andy and Charlene, put on. I learned so much today on what settings are really effective here in the US and how to tweak when required. I was almost to the point of selling my Deus due to my frustration level. After this...

    Garrett Service Praise

    I broke the tab off of my AT Pro battery older last week and it was completely my fault. I called Garrett to order a new one fully expecting to pay for it, because I dropped it and broke it. I have to say when I called service they sent me a new one free of charge. I think that is...

    Excalibur shaft decision

    Been thinking of switching my standard shaft to a straight shaft, looking at the different configurations and am confused by the standard straight and the over and under, what are some of the advantages I should be looking at?

    Excalibur knobs

    It seems like I go through a set of stock knobs every year, what are others using as aftermarket knobs or do you stay stock? The stock knobs are a bit expensive for how fragile they can be.

    pro swing harness problem

    Just got a new Pro Swing harness 45, love using it but I seem to have a problem where the J strut goes together at the bend, keeps coming uncoupled, no matter how I seem to put it together. Has anyone else run into this, and what are the fixes. seems to happen after repetitive bending down to...

    Pro Swing Harness

    At 62 the bones are starting to ache a bit more after a day of swinging the CTX. Just wondering what everyone thinks of the Minelab Pro-Swing 45 harness? Good and bad. I am seriously considering one but at 129 bucks I want to be sure.

    Lower shaft stuck

    I am considering the straight shaft by Plugger for my Excal II. When reading on his website, it indicated that I needed to use the lower shaft. I just went out and tried to get my lower shaft loose and it won't budge. I can only get about a turn and a half on the locking collar. Any ideas, I...

    Finding a Sovereign

    I always lurk on this site and am intrigued by the dedication to these Sovereigns, I am a Minelab person and have a CTX and Excalibur II, I keep thinking I might like to pick up a good Sovereign . So I assume the used market is the only way now. I did pick up the Deus, also and found out it...

    Excalibur Knobs very stiff

    Seems like each year my knobs on my Excalibur are very stiff and hard to turn, I usually break at least one to two knobs a year. I know these are considered sacrificial, but it seems that they break a little too easily . What are others doing to remedy this or is it just my machine. In 7...

    Frustration Level +++++

    I just can not seem to get a handle on this Deus, tried several different settings and can not find one that seems to work well in my area. Went out today trying to use the high performance coin program and trashy park program in Andy's book. In 3 hours detecting I found 46 bottle caps 5 pull...

    Love Hate relationship

    Well after just about a month I have developed a love hate relationship with my Deus, just when I think I have it figured out I have a terrible day with it. I have found that I do much better at school yards than at parks. When I am in parks it seems all I hear is bottle caps, even using...

    Trying to understand hunting trashy sites

    I have had a couple really bad days with the Deus, I need to understand how with the faster reactivity settings how one pulls out the good signals amongst the trash, so far to my ears it just sounds like a machine gun going off in my ears. When I dig what I think is a clean signal it is a...

    Better Day

    Got out for a couple hours and had a better day, I was able to pull a 52 Rosie and a 14K Gold ladies ring. I also got a $1.00 in clad with 7 nickels. This machine seems to love nickels. I still dug a ton of trash, but at least I am starting to hear the clean signals a little better. I...

    Just when I thought I was getting it

    Went out for a couple of hours today and boy was I humbled again. The last time out I thought I was getting a pretty good grasp on this machine, then I went out today and found nothing but bottle caps and 7 cents. Oh well more reading and experimenting. Have to say this machine makes you work...
