Well done Gary. I got my XPD2 to the beach. Both coils worked great. Had to make a adjustments, just the normal stuff and what a smooth platform. Actually found jewelry with both, but I more wanted to see the performance myself and get a handle on it. Hunted the Treasure Coast of FL with it.
Always enjoy your videos Gary, thanks! The magnetic says accept or reject. You said on or off. I know I have a 50/50 chance here, but it might have been easier to say "accept or reject" instead of "on or off".... I'm thinking I'd want reject to be enabled, please let me know if I have it backwards.
I'm on the beach very frequently almost every day one thing I've noticed is that in the surf they need to make a lower shaft something more stable! the lower shaft flexes way too much in the surf great machine but they need to address this and make a lower shaft that doesn't flex so much! Good video as always Gary 👍🦀
You can purchase a longer middle stem Ref D04L which allows more of the lower stem to overlap within allumium middle stem further, resulting in less whip. Cheapest option.
@@RegtonDetectors it's up in the shaft good it's not actually the length that's the problem it's the composition of the material of the lower end it twists terribly in the surf 👍🦀
Good info. But, some questions you might address in your next video... In shallow saltwater, might one be able to use either beach mode? Say standing knee to chest deep. Or will Dive mode only work? Next, when in shallow saltwater, is one supposed to ground balance and why? Because I never had to GB using my Excalibur or 3030. I thought multi frequency machines didn't require GB? And again wonder if doing a GB in saltwater works? Lastly, regarding the red dive plug... if one remains in shallow saltwater surf say 2 to 5 foot, for hours at a time, will the black plug leak and should the red plug be used? Why not use the red plug always? I ask because 3 of the same competitor units flooded in an average of 4' surf depth. I know what the manual says about the plugs, but am still not sure as a Deus II owner when to swap plugs? I mean with the standard black plug, in shallow surf for hours, could it flood? Thanks.
I use the black plug for shallow water hunting, even in neck-deep water. Also for snorkeling. For hours and no problems with it. If the red plug is inside, the remote control may swell if it gets very hot. for example in a car. I have a problem with soil leveling in water, especially in fresh water.
I have made a beach program in beach sens and i have set my Salt Sens too high i think . I use it like normal sens and set it to 9 . Thats coming down right away LOL My beaches have high EMI , Iron and all other trash , I shall check the other settings too. Wondered why it was a bit unstable. Thanks Gary. I also use Square tones in Full . I think they are better for beaches than the normal Deus tones. Though if there is too much Iron nails about i would reduce to 2 tones Like i do with the E.Trac in 2 Tone Ferrous.
Hi Gary - great video as always but kinda strange seeing you at the beach after forever seeing you on farm pasture. I see the Deus 2 is now available on places like eBay and the internet along with some accessories. My question is how much longer before we can order an optional coil ? My Deus 2 came with an 11” which I can’t use on all my sites. I’d really like to order a 9” coil but can’t get a straight answer from local distributors. Watch out for those seagulls !
Hi Gary, just wanted to reach out and see if Deus is changing the lower rod for Deus 2? I have the detector but the way it flexes in the surf is terrible. It’s great for land but not water, and it’s a water machine. Just checking in to see, thanks for all your hard work on the videos
Hello !! Thank you for great videos I own an xp ORX 10x5 coil but i can not get to work on beach on the wet sand. Could you be so kind to guide me to a video I can look at or point out what settings I need to use for it? I will appreciate that very much.
just found your channel so thanks for the very informative video,at the moment im using the nox 800 but im looking at buying a deus for diving,can you tell me the differance between the deus lite and the deus 2 as ive tried finding info on the web but not had much look.once again thanks for the great vid
Great video Gary ! :) perhaps be more precise concerning the Magnetic setting, for most stable operation, set it to "reject" that is the default setting, instead of "on"
OK here’s a question that I’ve asked and nobody seems to understand what I mean,but is hunting the wet sand the same for fresh and saltwater beaches? Is any wet sand considered mineralized or more conductive? I would really like to see a video on doing settings for fresh water and freshwater beaches.
To answer your first question no. In my experience fresh water beaches are not conducive. I have hunted fresh water beaches in park mode and submerged in fresh water in park mode. No issues at all. Now when you try his in wet sands on salt water beaches or the salt water itself it’s totally different game. That’s where you will need to utilize your three beach modes 👍
I have a general question. I have owned a D2 for around a month and I've enjoyed using it. I've only found clad but that's fine. My question is predicated upon a comment, that is, I've noticed a type of light refraction on the screen of my unit. It is probably just built in to the glass on the face of the unit itself but it distorts my ability to see the face of my screen. It creates wavy patterns in the glass and I have to change angles to see the screen. Do you know anything about this or have any suggestions to reduce or avoid it? thanks.
@@The-skillschool The two functions of Manual Ground Balance and Tracking Ground balance are completely different functions. One clearly should be a better option in a wet salt environment. Is there not more of an explanation other than personal preference.
@@jerrytalley802 This fear of a weak target being "tracked out" by a detector running Tracking Ground Balance, is a complete fable. You run a greater risk of not having a detector tuned properly in a changing mineral environment and losing targets, by not running Tracking GB.
Hi mate , I’m 6’2 and find when I have it at a length I like it feels a bit wobbly so I brought a new middle stem which are 12cm longer than the standard one and about £30 .. it’s spot on now 👍
@@TheDigginDudeUK No Problem Mate, the stems are pretty much the same so it fits both models of the deus. I’m doing ok with it so far but to be honest I still prefer my Deus 1 with the HF Elliptical coil 😊👍
@@fireblade1000jg it's crazy because you're not the 1st person who's said that but you know that after a few more updates you've probably got a machine that's top 3 in class for the next decade. Hope you enjoy it mate.

I didn't even know about the Magnetic setting Thanks.
Thanks TT
A great information video there Gary! 😊
Thank you sir
Thanks ! I always enjoy watching your videos, good luck!
Thanks for your support
Superb advice matey
Great video and super helpful tips. Brilliant job on sound quality! The beach can be rough.
Thanks Grant
Great tips Gary. I can't wait to get my DĒUS II out on the beach!
Thanks Cam
Yet to try out the D2 on a beach properly in the wet sand. Thanks for these top tips Gaz. Top video as usual mate. 👌
Thanks Paul
Thanks Gary!! Another great video!!
Thanks B7

I'm going to do my first bit of beach detecting with the deus 2 tomorrow... thanks for these tips 😀
VERY helpful video for me....a new Deus2 user! Tnx very much!
Fantastic. Really enjoyed this one !! Thanks for sharing. W.
I hunt the beach’s near me all winter long thanks Gary
Thanks Mark

I believe there is a carbon fibre shaft being developed in Australia

Thanks CMNW 👍🤝
Excellent video and strange to see you on the beach but once again very informative , Pete
Thanks Pete
Targeting brass, copper, lead and aluminium relics, I have found the low frequency-weighted Diving program to be a great base for a modded program.
Great feedback thanks
A very informative and interesting video, very helpful. Many thanks.
Thank you

My garrett euro ace with nel tornado coil hits much deeper than the deus 2 😮
Great video again. Len

Greetings from Ukraine 🇺🇦
Thanks for watching
What the best settings on XP DEUS1 for that wet sand . ?? Please Is Deus 1 better then Equinox 600 or Legend on that type of wet sand?? Thank you
Thanks for the video Gary 👌. If Im not going to submerge that coil into the water do I still need to use the antenna kit on the beach 👍
Thanks!!!
Thanks Vladimir

Why would not run tracking Ground Balance at a salt beach?
Personal preference
@@The-skillschool The two functions of Manual Ground Balance and Tracking Ground balance are completely different functions. One clearly should be a better option in a wet salt environment. Is there not more of an explanation other than personal preference.
Tracking can be a problem with any detector. CHALLENGE; when you engage tracking and get a weak signal, sweep over it, it will track it out

Plz send me the link to this vid
deus2 for the sea , deus1 for interior
Thanks for your thoughts
I'm 6'4 and I was wondering if this detector will be big enough for me?
