There is only one detector better than Deus - it is Deus with larger coil!

[ivconic]

Accu lasting at Deus models up to June 2010.

Coil:
Freq. 18kHz power at 1 = 14 hours
Freq. 18kHz power at 2 = 10 hours
Freq. 18kHz power at 3 = 8 hours 45 min

Freq. 12kHz power at 1 = 13 hours 30 min
Freq. 12kHz power at 2 = 9 hours
Freq. 12kHz power at 3 = 8 hours

Freq. 8kHz power at 1 = 13 hours 30 min
Freq. 8kHz power at 2 = 9 hours

Freq. 8kHz power at 3 = 8 hours

Freq. 4kHz (power fix) = 7 hours 30 min

Headphones: 21 hours
Remote: 21 hours

Is the Deus really that good?

Why don't you tell us what you don't like about it, maybe you would be more believable.

Seems it is.

I am not owner (not yet) of XP Deus nor LTC64, I am interesting in truth only. Without "like" or "dislike" any model in advance.

What I don't like about XP Deus is concern for battery. You need to care for three different battery pack (at least two) that are working ready otherwise detecting fail. But this is price you must pay for wireless detector.

Second "dislike" is, that nowhere on web I cannot find simple about 1gram genuine gold nugget test for XP Deus. Nowhere (not in air, not in soil).

Otherwise Deus is conceptual potentially ideal for my way of detecting (prospecting combined with hiking).

[ivconic]

And this from American dealer that sell both of those detectors (XP Deus and LTC64):

"Since that evening, I've been out at the Beach 2 to 3 times and the XP-Deus handles our Black Sand Beaches effectively. I've found some fine chains due to the higher frequencies that many of the Competition will not hear. At home, I've tested the XP-Deus on 2 Gram Chains and it hits hard when tuned properly!"

So, only someone who is malicious or incompetent to use detector can claim the opposite.

Exactly! That's why i joined other topic and debate there.
I don't really give a damn about no Blisstool at all. I now it's a CRAP!
It's a Wave, modified just a bit. Maybe a bit better than Wave or maybe a bit worse, who gives a sheet anyway!
So i really don't give a damn about it. I joined there only to react on that stupid, lying, malicious video on the beach with golden chain.
No other reason.

I think it's not much more then a fancy Blisstool.

Time for a reality check folks.


"All in all, it's a nice beginner metal detector with a hefty price tag."

Deus
This detector can be considered a masterpiece of engineering in the field of metal detection. Only appearing in the Russian market, he immediately pushed such worthy representatives of both Minelab E-Trac and the Whites Spectra V3. Do not think that all of its advantages are limited to the wireless transmission of information between the coil, the control unit and headphones. This detector can operate at very trashy areas and has a tremendous sensitivity to very small objects, such as gold chains.

I didn't want to post this on Bliss topic because i am already sick of pointless debate with brainless promoters which appeared here on these forums and already ragging with huge pile of stupid claims and nonsenses!

[ivconic]

Not to mention this test:

Therefore i am posting this here, it belongs here.
So... according to this on posted link; we see that there are also quite different experiences and opinions from those on other topic!
I tend rather to accept these experiences and claims than those oposite from other topic; simply because i already have Deus and already checked all the claims.
What else to say?
Russian colleagues already said everything!

Deus
Этот металлодетектор можно смело назвать шедевром инженерной мысли в области металлодетекции. Только появившись на российском рынке, он сразу потеснил таких достойных представителей как Minelab E-Trac и Whites Spectra V3. Не стоит думать, что все его достоинства ограничиваются беспроводной передачей информации между катушкой, блоком управления и наушниками. Этот детектор способен работать на очень замусоренных участках и обладает потрясающей чувствительностью к очень небольшим объектам, например к золотым цепочкам.

If you spot this, close to your home town - don't panic!
It is just me; digging what i was previously detected with my tiny Deus!

[ivconic]

Ive had a go of the deus it was very good.

Clear Id for Iron.
Automatic volume change for distance from the target (close loud , distant quiet)


The main filter may be set up a little higher in frequency say 40Hz plus - as you can sweep it like a golf club and still gets it. Maybe a high pass shape rather than a narrow bandpass.


The coil on them is a touch more of an OO than a DD. Overlapped section has definate curves rather than straight.


Love to see one opened up. Or a drawing - mostly DSP and blutooth Radio Transciever I guess.

Battery is less than 10gramm and lasts about 8-12hours.

Tx must be efficient.

Deus is state of the art in many aspects.
Last edition of Deus is having more better batteries than previous ones.
My Deus is from latest edition; coil battery can last up to 19 hours, mostly depends on adjustments. Remote control battery can last over 21 hours.
If TX power is adjusted to max (value 3) than i guess battery will drain faster.
I don't readjust main presets often, i am using GMP and FAST programs most of the time, TX power is set at 2 and maybe that's why my batteries are lasting a bit longer.
Despite the fact that i am having it for more than 2 months; i still haven't explored it yet in details. So many options and possbilities! Some of them demand given soil conditions to be explored in right manner.
But for now i am very satisfied with it!

@satdaveuk Hi, i live in Serbia and shipping cost from here to UK would be very high, so i think that the best choice for you would be ebay as WM6 already mentioned.
@WM6 You're welcome WM6, i did notice difference between nature and melted gold (melted gold nugget been detected while the whole stone not), now experimenting with IGSL for this purpose (I raised the frequency to 22kHz) and it detects very tiny nuggets, but have some little problems with stability, I went offtopic here...
ivconic send me PM.
Regards Marko.
