Deus 2 HF Coils

[BigTony]

I hear the new coil will need FCC approval before they can sell in the US.

Dealer put me on the wait list and said price is $399.
I’m glad because I don’t have the nine inch now because my machine came with the 11 inch coil.
Hopefully I’ll stay excited and get out more. I haven’t been detecting much in the last two years…….gotta get back out there

I ordered the new coil or should I say pre-ordered. The dealer said it could take up to six months. Has anyone else heard a timeline?
Also, has anyone heard which update it will require? I’m kind of used to 1.1.

Good hunting to everyone,
Dan

I’m on 1.1 as well

He made outstanding finds! But I hear you - I always wanted a nine inch coil so this new one is perfect for me. Something new to try and the small size will help my old bones swing a little bit more. I probably should just travel north and use what I have ……..ha ha ha

Battery is inside the shaft not in the coil.

Huh?? I thought it was supposed to be wireless.

It’s a charging wire, has nothing to do with connectivity.
XP doesn’t use wireless charging

C'mon Tony----That's not what I was saying at all.-----It has everything to do with connectivity.----That's a wire to connect the coil to the battery (in the shaft).----The other style has the battery imbedded in the coil.---Of course they don't use wireless charging. ----The battery charges (either style) by a charging clip affixing to the coil.

Please don’t confuse me I’m older and probably shouldn’t buy this coil…..I don’t get out much anyway

By all means---buy the coil if you feel it would be a good addition.-----BTW----age is just a number.-----I'm 86 yrs. young & my wife & I still hunt all the time---have for YEARS.

You are blessed to have a wife by your side hunting with you. Mine will not -

I'd be interested on how it would do on that hot dirt in Culpeper Co. Va.

 

[HanoverDigger]

We don’t even see dealers talking of pre-orders, right?

I haven't seen any on some the detecting forums, but I've had several emails from dealers taking pre-orders. Wait and see I guess. There is a YouTube video on the new coil also. Good luck hunting.

 

[targets]

French dealers don’t seem to have any only taking pre orders

 

[targets]

If the French dealers don’t have any this could be a long wait for oval coils

Gary Blackwell did a video on the HF2 coil as an introduction. He explained a few areas to use it, like mineralized soil, gold areas, tight spaces and beach. It seemed to me he was swinging to fast for a nine by five coil but that’s me. He also said he will do another video after he makes adjustments.
