Well done. I am waiting for my D2 to arrive in a few weeks. I appreciated your caution in not gushing after one hunt. So much depends on what you swing over with a new machine. I think almost any new machine can find things the others missed so a long view really is wise. Thanks for a great video!
@MentalMetal
@MentalMetal 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks Tom, yes I think we typically find things the other machine miss because we tend to dig everything at first to learn the machine etc. At least that has been my experience, then we biased towards certain tones and numbers and things get missed. I think you will like the machine. I'm having a lot of fun with it. Good luck.

I use an Apex right now with several different coils. It works reasonably well, but the firmware could always use improvement, if Garrett should choose to update it. The D2 would be a great tool for my toolbox IF I can see its strong points and they can benefit my needs.

Dont know Scott. I believe it's a good machine but the hype is not worth the money in my opinion. I'm a beach hunter in Fl. Ran into a guy with a brand new D2. Hunted same line he did along cabanas at busy beach. Picked up quite a bit of change and then hit a screaming 19-20 on my 800. 10 g mens 14k band! How do you miss so much? Got 301 rings in 2021, 47 gold! Gotta love the Nox in a capable detectorist hands! As always a great informative video! Thanks!! 👍👍👍

Hey no worries I'm not trying to over hype it. I will say that a guy with a "brand new d2" up against an experienced equinox user, I would put my money on the equinox. Now I would like to see an experienced D2 user go head to head with the same Equinox user for a fair comparison. I haven't used mine on the beach yet so I have nothing to say about the beach yet.

I’ve been following and watching other channels testing the Deus 2 against the Equinox 800. I am not that proficient with my Equinox 800 yet . But, I would like to see a test hunt with the Deus 2 hunting an area hopefully finding both ferrous and non ferrous , mark it don’t dig. Then follow up same pathways as the Deus , see if the Equinox finds anything missed and if it finds what the Deus located. Then dig each to see if ID and Tones were correct. This would be nice to see on the Beach, Fields , and Parks. Thanks Shilohphil

Reminds me of when the Equinox came out and all the D1 users said their machine beat the Minelab...but after some hrs on them they developed an ear and realized the Equinox was much better than expected.

One thing I learned from this is that if you already have a really nice detector like a Nox 600/800, CTX 3030, or even a 1st Gen XP Deus, adding a $1,600 XP Deus II to your arsenal makes little sense. Unless you have money to burn. Performance wise, it finds trash and treasure just like the rest of them. However, if you're looking to replace a previous detector and money is no object, this is certainly one to consider. This might be a good detector as a primary with a Nox 600 or 800 as your backup. Because as light as the Deus' and Nox's are, the battery on your Deus is going to run out long before your arm ever gets tired. Then just bring in the equally light weight Nox and keep on swinging. Between them, you could detect from sun up to sundown.
@MentalMetal
@MentalMetal 2 жыл бұрын
Agree w/you on both sides. Totally true. But I'll add one. If you like the detector you are using and you are find great stuff with it and feel under pressure to buy something new because everyone on KZbin is telling you to, then don't. There is nothing wrong with using the machine you enjoy using. After all, to most of us its just a hobby and thrill of finding something cool and amazing is what keeps us out there.

If you are going to talk and show the X Y screen, you should look into the zoom feature on it. Someone put out a video (wish I could remember who so I could share the link) that without zooming in, you see pretty much that tiny dot in the middle of the screen, unless it is a real strong target, but if you zoom in, you can gain a lot more knowledge about the target. I would like to see you test this feature more. Of course, the hardcore Deus users will tell, unlike the Nox, this machine is all about the tones, don't rely upon the screen to tell you what you've got.

Old carbon like old square nails? Not sure what you are referring to. Will it find old square nails, yes but you can eliminate most of them using the Silencer or Disc IAR (depends on the search program).

Hi Scott, I watched your first 3 Deus 2 videos, even though this machine is out of my price range, but this is the one I've been waiting for. The Deus looks very promising alright. I'm really looking forward to see what else you do with it. Maybe someday I'll be able to afford one and I'll be ready to go thanks to you.

I think you could buy 1.5 Equinox's vs 2 :-) lets not over inflate the price. They raised the price of the Nox last year you'll pay close to 1k for it after taxes.
