Since I have upgraded to V3.0, I only had to charge the Deus once. I have gone out for about 5 hunts for a total of 10-12hrs. Most of them have been with Tx power at one (shallow jewelry hunting).
My battery indicators all register full charge. This is not normal. The coil should show that it's discharging and so should the controller. I checked the headphones and they show full charge also.
I am thinking its a V3.0 install issue and I need to reinstall.
But here's my concern....The last two times I've hunted the grass has been wet and my coil gets soaked. After about 2 hrs hunt the Deus went crazy like I was next to a powerful EMI source (2 completely different locations over 10 miles apart).
The TID displays a number in the 50-60 range and it won't go away. I cycled power but it remained the same.
I figured the battery was low and my indicator is faulty but when I perused the forum I found no reference to low battery/erratic behavior.
The post I saw was about seeing "no coil" indicator but nothing about erratic behavior preceding it. Now I'm wondering if the new replacement coil is having troubles with moisture.
I have yet to charge the coil or controller. Right now it's sitting in my house clean and dry with the power on for over 20 minutes and no erratic behavior yet.
While I am beginning the process of troubleshooting the problem, has anybody else experienced these issues with their Deus?
