  1. This is simple and very useful advice. With the Equinox detectors, this was a weak point, in many cases the detector got soaked there. With the D2 I didn't think this would be a problem as the machine is water resistant to 20 meters. But it's better to prevent trouble, it's true. I will also cover the D2 speaker.
  2. The small coil would be great for diving between rocks and littered freshwater beaches. I was hoping it would be more sensitive to gold chains. It would also be great for traveling, I would definitely buy it if it were released. I almost only use a small coil on the equinox.
  3. As a water hunter, I would like to comment on the subject. I mainly research in freshwater lakes. There are many beaches in these lakes where a lot of garbage and other objects have been piled up in layers for many years. There are also places where the soil is strongly volcanic, clayey, or muddy, etc.. It is a great madness to hunt in such places, because it exhausts the mind the many signs close to each other. Meanwhile, you are sure that there is gold among them. Separation is very important here, as objects mask each other. This year I went with deus 2, usually I dig between 30-50-80 useful signals almost every time. Sometimes I took out a couple of nice rings or other smaller pieces of jewelry, necklaces or pendants. The accuracy of digging is also quite difficult, as many signals can be caught in one swing. The fact that the water is up to your chest or neck doesn't make the situation any easier either. The point is that last time on a beach with the same problem (in the water, of course) after the Deus, I took out the Equinox with the elliptical small 10x5 Coiltek coil and I was able to dig and separate the signals much more precisely. I found the first gold chain among a lot of garbage, which I was very happy about. I hope the next XP release will be a small elliptical coil like the white deus I coil.
  4. Fortunately, it was solved. On another computer, after several attempts, the connection was not lost. I think the cause of the problem is the poor quality USB connector on the transmitter. All my cables are very loosely connected. 🤞
  5. I fallen is same situation, the update screen still on my ws6 puck, the USB connection disconnected when the update erase the puck.
  6. I'm glad you got a feel for the machine. You didn't write which program you use in the water when you dive with the Nomad? Fresh or salt water?
  7. Thanks! 3 m deep enough for my purposes becaus I use Nemo for hunting.
  8. I read the topic, it was very informative, thanks for the information. I am looking for a pointer for diving and snorkeling that has metal discrimination capabilities. It can be a big help in low visibility conditions in fresh water, where there are usually a lot of iron pieces. Another important point is to be sensitive to small gold objects. I use the Nokta Pulsedive, a very good, robust device, but unfortunately quite weak for small objects, at least for gold. The Nokra Makro pointer is much more sensitive, but weak in salt water. I don't know if you used the two pointers mentioned in the topic in salt water, what is your experience?
  9. It works perfectly, it doesn't matter if it's salt water or fresh water. Any type of coax cable is fine for this purpose. There is no need to worry about this. I only snorkel with it, but I don't think it would work any differently for deeper dives.
  10. I don't think there would be any problem underwater with the external battery connector. A higher frequency head for the deus 2 would be interesting. I did a small table test, but in combination with wet soil. The test item was a piece of 14K chain weighing 1.5 grams and a hoop earring (0.6 gram). The ID number in the air was chain: 31, earring: 39 When placed on the ground, the chain is 26-28, buried 4 cm deep it is already solid 25, or an iron sound. This depends on the set program. I recently found an 18g stainless steel chain in water, a solid 25, but it was a wide, long signal. If you use the NOTCH function, it greatly reduces the chance of finding a gold chain.
  11. The white HF heads also worked great in the water. They were real chain hunter heads. I hope there will be a smaller head for the deus 2, perhaps with different or higher frequencies.
  12. On a beach or water, jewelry weighing 0.5 g of gold is already enough for the limit.
  13. I'm a freshwater beach hunter, I've never found a gold nugget and I probably never will. I'm satisfied with jewelry. Of course, I would be happy with a couple of nice gold chains. I'm going to test version 0.6 and version 0.71 with my buddy on the same chain piece. With factory programs, in a shallow part of the beach. I wonder what the difference between the two versions will be.
  14. The experience of the last few weeks in freshwater hunting is that the deus 2 is very good for small gold objects. Several pieces of earrings have already been dug up from fresh water, the smallest weighing 0.5 g, all open type, so they were difficult targets. With the Beach Sens and Sensitive Fulltone programs (the latter with pitch sound). Gold chains.. well, this is a more difficult topic, I am testing it in the field, but there are no satisfactory results yet.
  15. I tried this square wave sound in combination with the Picth mode on the Beach sens program, in fresh water. It helped me very well to locate the target. It was also a great help in determining the size of the objects. It saved me a lot of time. 13. The Beach P program is practically the same as the Bech program, but does it put the sounds in Pich mode? Or are there other changes, for example in the frequencies?
