  • Because you asked, I tested the XP Deus II 9" coil against the 11" coil to see if I could hit the same dime in a saturated iron scenario. I think you will be as surprised as I was when you see the results. Is the 9" coils vs the 11" coil any better? This video just might shock you in to keeping your 11" if you have one.

    Thanks for testing Scott! I think if you when you cut TID off it defaults it off in all programs and even when you cut the machine off until you go back and cut it back on. That TID on will really help with 7 and 8 numbers. Just remember when it is on
    it is on for all programs, same with off. Me and TNSharpshooter did some testing with this feature some. Thanks for sharing, buddy! 😊

    There has been much written about coil size and effectiveness. Since I own all the D2 coils, I can tell you they all separate very well. Coil size for me is dictated by its ability to fit in tight areas around colonial homesites as they have been logged off many, many times and are always in some stage of regrowth. Like I carry a folding saw in my pack along with ratcheting pruners thick. My Predator is always very sharp. So the 9 inch gets the nod for me, but in less cluttered areas, the 11 or 13 might be just fine for many. Depth is a non-issue in New England, as woods targets are 4-7 inches deep. I'm actually hoping for a 9 x 5 D2 coil for even more agility in the woods!!!

    I just did a similar test between the Manticore and my D2. I’d say my test wasn’t as exhaustive-just the programs as they are with no adjustments. My conclusion was that neither would hit the coin I used amongst the nails. To be fair there was a large nail slightly elevated by a clump of grass. I really like these tests though, kinda confirms the idea that we never get it all! I told my wife I would sell either the D2 or the M, and just keep ONE high end machine, but I really can’t bring myself to part with either one, lol..😂

    • @jaystrongbow6111
      @jaystrongbow6111 Год назад

      Hi Randy, if you are a relic guy playing in iron like I do, keep the D2 and learn to set it up. If just general detecting, pick the one that feels best and you are most confident with, they are both great machines. The D2 is an amazing relic machine.

    Question....my controller easily pops off stem on my Desus 2, it's hard to tell from your video but are using any kind of aftermarket type mount for your controller, just looks like there's just a little additional material around your controller. Long time subscriber, always look forward to new videos.

      Dan, iffysignals taught me this one ..... get some RTV and fill in the space behind the 2 prongs that hold the control on. Let it dry 24 hours and put your controller back on. I will hold now.

    if silencer is 0 will hit it better

    • @MentalMetal
      @MentalMetal  7 месяцев назад

      This answer sucks but it all depends on your conditions. Silencer is just an iron filter so the higher you set it, the more iron your are shutting out. If you run it wide open (Silencer at 0) you might get some extra depth but you are also going to hear a lot of the iron and ground noise. Using a Silencer of 2 seems to be the best (sweet spot) and you don't compromise the performance of the machine.
