Deus .... D.E.U.S pronounced day-uss. Not Dues rhymes with snooze or juice.

You forgot the detector' s weight / detection comfort. The D2 ( 750g cb in the pocket ) outperforms the Equinox ( 1,3kg ) on this criteria . 

This single reason is a very good reason to move from the Eq to the D2 ... , assuming of course that their perfos ( separation/depth etc ) are similar , which seems to be the case up to now from the testers feedbacks , at least in low to moderately mineralized soils .  

yes very true the the build and weight of the D1 is much better than the equinox

My thoughts on the deus 2 v Equinox 800 v Deus 1
lets look at the pros and cons?.

Deus 1                                                                                  Equinox 800
1-Excellent in the iron unmasking                                  1- not as good in iron unmasking
2-Good depth on targets in open ground                     2- very good depth on targets in open ground
3-very good in lose or plowed ground                          3- not so good in lose or plowed ground
4- can be affected by EMI                                               4- can be affected by EMI
5- can be dial in to most conditions                          5- can de dial in to most conditions
6- poor in the wet sand                                                    6- excellent on the wet sand

Deus 2 
1-Excellent in the iron unmasking 
2-- very good depth on targets in open ground 
 3-very good in lose or plowed ground
4- can be affected by EMI  
5- can be dial in to most conditions
6- excellent on the wet sand

I Have been watching all the you tube videos on the Deus 2 all against the equinox, fair battle,
But we all know that the Deus 1 is far better in the unmasking in iron than the knox, as will be the Deus 2, so not comparing apples to apples really ?

I have a Deus 1 and it will hit all the tests put up on you tube in the iron unmasking tests with the Deus 2,
And i seen the test on depth put up in the UK soil, not a fair test as they used field 1, field 2 and park 2 are deeper seeking, but the nox still kept up with the Deus 2 , then they used relic mode and gained the advantage, the nox would have done the same in gold mode,

So here is my thinking if you own a deus 1 . why spend £1400 on a deus 2 just buy a second hand nox 800 as i expect the prices will drop when the deus 2 is available, you have all the benefits of the deus 2 and a back up detector,
Or if you own a Eqinox just buy a second hand deus 1 as the prices have come down already, or if you want all the advantages of the Deus 1 and the equinox 800 in one package get the deus  2.  Just my thought on this
