A Little Silver, Gold And Platinum
midalake replied to Dan(NM)'s topic in Metal Detecting For Jewelry
Fantastic! Awesome work! BRAVO!!!! -
Nice digs!!! Gold can't be far away!

Chinese talents??? That might be a little overreach. Most everything coming out of China is inferior.

How cute. Do they come in pink?

Yes, the next update will be called Deus 2. It will make the Equinox not work as well as it does.

Without knowing a particular machine my bet would go for 26khz and higher. That is what most beach and gold hunters would say. However most of us at the beach do not get to use, or cannot use single freq do to salt conditions. There is a lot to be said about stability and sensitivity. That may have different freq. choices. Sounds like your testing is pretty well thought out.

I'm not using the factory lower. However, one possibility is taking a little stock off the washer less side and then add a thin rubber fender washer to that end. That may solve the issue. At least you would have rubber on both sides.

There is a used Deus 2 for sale over on friendly forum. $1050 shipped. Someone is going to get a killer deal!

I looked ahead of time. Of the three phones you posted I can only tell two of them: dodiddlies, and Serious. Neither of those phones have "NRR" specifications listed in advertisements, nor ambient dB rating. Here are the only production phones that accept the Ws6 that I know of, are dB rated and state so. -24dB. https://highplainsprospectors.com/products/detector-pro-gray-ghost-xp-platinum-series-wireless-headphones-for-xp-deus-xp-deus-ii?gclid=Cj0KCQjw2MWVBhCQARIsAIjbwoMtJm6_Legs5IUuFAqcKUDSQWzcj98gzliKCQBdktN2T4XO4ayW-WwaAgEIEALw_wcB I have found what I want for 25 years. I use the Original Black Widows [-28dB rated] with Audiosears [speakers] Connected directly to the detector.

To heck with this cheap recharging crap. I am simply getting a jumper cable made to run my favorite QUALITY headphones. I am not sure why anyone would buy any of those cheap non-Db rated headphones to put the puck on. [for beach hunting] I can tell you how many failures I had with my Equinox wireless in 4 years. Zip, Zero, Nada. Because I was connected directly to the pod with a jumper cable!

Will have to check with the metal detecting gods to see if you can keep gold while using a silver program. 🤣 NICE find!
-
Time to turn it loose! More gold ahead!
-
A coil you can get tight enough not to move does not wear. But run your coil loose and wear will happen. When your coil is too loose, waves and pressures move it all time, their is your wear issue.

I think companies would think about economy timing. [I would]

Real World Feedback For XP Deus 2 In Water
midalake replied to Dmnz's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
Dale, there has been lots of reviews and talk out. Below is my testing done in comparison to the Equinox and my overall review for salt hunting. I will stand by all of my testing that the Equinox and Deus2 are tied at best on a wet salt beach, and if you're running the Equinox in horseshoe mode it gets the nod to identify deep nonferrous targets. I did no diving. But I did do moving water wave wash testing. The Deus2 was much better with moving salt water than the Equinox. The Equinox is not even close. Since my reviews, I have purchased a Deus2 with 9" coil to dedicate to moving salt wash. I will not be back on my machines until mid-July. I think if you are going to dedicate the Deus2 to water contact it might be the best choice for the machine. Of course, I do not have a Youtube channel.

I’ve Been Converted From 3 Tones To Square Pitch
midalake replied to ColonelDan's topic in XP Deus II Forum
Does the iron tone start at an ID# on the Deus? Can the iron tone break be adjusted to a certain ID on two tone? -
Equinox 800 Or Nokta Macro Legend Or Deus2
midalake replied to Alberto Montano's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
I am guessing you are dirt hunting? I would not buy the Legend for Salt Water use [yet] I think the Deus 2 is too expensive to justify for Dirt Hunting. The Equinox 800 [used] would be my choice. Unless you are going under water there is very little issues with the Equinox out of warranty, the pods and electronics are solid. The coil choices are fantastic for the Equinox. HH -
I thought you were in salt water. Thanks for clarity.
