First few hours with my Deus! Few days Hunting

LOL I know it is not much time on it, but I work more than breathe........

My thoughts:

1. This thing is light!! Compact and easy to use if not changing to much.

2. End of the day yesterday I tried my new Chefphones CP6 headphones and let me tell you, this is a whole new machine! I hear SOOOOO much better the tones and different freqs, and faint ones, before with the headbands, I heard tones but let say only 45% of them and they all was close to my ears in freq. I hate to think of what I left in the ground, now I gotta go back to the places and redetect them......(LOL dang the bad luck! LOL).

3. Piggybacks to above, with the full headphones, all the dang programs (Stock n Custom) I was swapping around, might have been great but due to my crappy hearing and the headbands, thought differently, gonna revisit all the programs.

4. There is not enough hours in a day, I go out ALL day detecting, sometimes 2 days a week if off. and it ALWAYS seems as if I just get started and it is dinner time.....Time flies. I need to become wealthy so I can retire and detect everyday! Anyone got a retirement fund I can borrow?

5. I need more time using my baby, I feel like things are falling into place for the first time because of the full headphones, where I was thinking this sucks and not very clear, I know now it is/was me! that last hour was the greatest, not in finds (I had a great one, a 1920's crackerjack cufflink) but in becoming one with the machine, I swear I was trying to decide if I could go buy a flashlight and continue into the dark......

6. Lastly, I wish to hell that XP or someone would make a stand for the Deus, I mean to design a 2000 buck detector and no stand, seems dumb to me, oh sure there is tiny lil feet on the cuff, but 99% of the time the base of the hand grip sits on the ground, not the feet...AM I the only one who sees this?

OK Deus newby out!

I made a stand out of the real small PVC pipe. I just cut some 45 degree angles and super glued it all together and then painted it black. I used the existing screw in the bottom of the handle and screwed it in. Seems to work great.
 
I like it Bill, I may have to make of of those. Of course though it would just make the Deus heavier :rofl:

Oh wait, forget that comment!!
 
After swinging the Deus for a while and then picking up the V3i it feel like it weighs a ton. How are you liking that 11" coil? Any pros or cons that you can tell?
