Metal detectors. Cheap VS Expensive. XP Deus, Garrett, Tesoro

- It is not easy to pick a new metal detector. There is so many to choose from. Perhaps this will help you decide if you want to spend 160 dollars or 1500.
I appogize for not supertuning the tejòn. It would go deeper in disc if setting it right.

One of the best comparisons on metal detectors that I have seen on youtube! Very simple and comprehensive for beginners like me. Thanks!
This is by far the best demonstration of how a detector will react to iron close to coins. "Great Job!"
Got to say this is the best instructional video on how different machines operate, and cheaper VS expensive. So thank you Sir. Keep it up bro!!
Good test. Had good results in UK with Laser Rapier, going VERY SLOWLY, with minimal discrim. Deep finds of Roman brooches, hammered Silver pennies & excellent sensitivity to tiny Silver, when a more expensive machine struggled to locate the signals. Just listen for those "awkward, scratchy, faint blips", & never ignore a faint signal that comes & goes, or you may miss that tiny, tiny Silver coin/fragment that is hiding within a miniscule lump of dirt. Best machine used in 14 years ? - XP Goldmaxx, no need for fancy meters, the audio & recovery are that good with a combination of low discrim settings, this machine is, IMO, unbeatable. Spent a day digging everything, on a Roman site, making notes of my interpretation of signal & what was actually found - iron of all shapes & sizes identified EVERY time. Amazing machine. This machine has never fooled me on large, deep iron, & is happy to signal the ropiest small Roman "grot", very close to large iron bolts etc. Tiny, "deep" Gold & Silver sound like a dustbin lid with this machine ( if you move slowly , use low discrim & accustom your ears to what the machine is indicating ).
Having used several detectors including so called high-end ones with displays and a lot of settings, I always come back to Tesoro.
I dig everything because I like all relics not just coins. However, I have searched my own back yard multiple times with a couple expensive detectors like my Mine lab and Xp. Recently I bought a $28 antique fisher on ebay (so kids wouldn't break my good detectors )
To my surprise the same little back yard that has been searched many times over I found 2 pennies, a dime, 2 nickels and an old pocket knife! Along with a few dozen nails and chain link parts. Things that my other 3 detectors never picked up.
Different machines discriminate differently and read depths differently as you see in this video. Soil conditions also alter readings as well.
I will say that my At pro is my favorite as far as settings and ease of use.
Thanks for the reviews and tips! It's always interesting learning more about our hobby.
The take away here, is that rechecking an area from 90 degrees offset, can yield further results. GREAT VIDEO !
Thank you for posting. I run a Fisher f70 and you've given me some new ideas for testing and practice.
Best detector test video I've seen. Thanks
Thank you sir for a demonstration well done. I have been detecting now for 3 years and still don't know everything my detector is saying to me. I skip over many potential targets because they don't make sense or are weak signals. Your example of a coin and a nail explains a lot. I started out using a Bounty Hunter Lone Star Pro. Now I have a BH Quick Draw Pro witb an elliptical coil. I have found many coins and a 14k ring and also a silver Rosie dime on a sandy fresh water beach with the BH LSP. That is to say one does not always need to buy an expensive machine to be successful. Though I would like to get my hands on a Gold Bug machine.
It is just like sport fishing. It is 99% up to the man, not the gear.
+Watchara Makmee indeed, many have all the gear but no idea 👍
ziggyjinx you mean that don't know they bought all that gear? They get amnesia ?
Very clever test method. Very good video for those making a purchase without a lot of MD experience.
*This was the first detector me and my son got when we started out. Found 5 silvers at an old school from the 1910 era the first time out. This thing really works. And works well. I wouldn't get anything less than this model as a beginner. Happy hunting. Amateurs sit and wait for inspiration, the rest of us just get up and go get it.*
Julie E Health i smell,coffee do,you wake up
Good test. Smart way to place the target. The take away for me is that really there is not much difference between a $250 machine and a $2500 machine, particularly once you tune your parameters and get experience with your settings. The basic metal detecting technology is the same - not much has changed in 40 years because not much can change. What distinguishes one cost from the other is how much you do on the reporting end. Bells and whistles. I find just as much as an ACE 150 as I do with AT Pro.
+jimpublictube
Just bought my first detector, an AT Pro. My research showed that most of what I was paying for in the middle class of detectors was that waterproofness (is that a word?) of the AT Pro, and the DD coil. Otherwise, it's capabilities are likely similar to the Ace 250. But I'll definitely feel better not having to put a bag over it in Ohio weather.
+Ben Simpson I have the Ace 250. One thing that is very handy with the AT Pro is the iron audio and the number on the screen can be handy -sometimes- but not always.
A bit like saying there is little difference between a pricey BMW and cheaper Ford because they both get you to a location at an equal speed. there is more to consider if you are able.
Felix Cuvreau not really because I wouldn't own another BMW.
I'm looking to get another detector and am really leaning towards the Garrett Ace series. I've had an old Bounty Hunter, if memory serves me right it was a TR 550 D a Radio Shack and White XLT. I have to admit I did find more with the White XLT but my finances aren't as good as they used to be.
Thank you for this video as it has helped me in my decision making in a beginner unit. Your's was the best I have found allowing me to see exactly how the Garrett works in real world situations.
Good tests. Thanks for taking the time to put that together. Have to say the standout for me was the Tejon. Such a nice mellow tone.
Very informative and interesting.Thank you.
Great test!! Been looking for these examples because am getting a detector soon!
Thanks for the vid!!
Thank you very much for your rather expert presentation. It helped me understand many concepts I was unfamiliar with.
Years ago I bought the only thing I could afford, a Bounty Hunter I-D 505. Now I have a Bounty Hunter Land Ranger Pro. I have returned to the placed I hunted with the old $79.00 Tracker and there is nothing left to dig. It is about learning the machine you have. Dig everything until you learn what it is telling you. Trash can be a valuable learning tool.
SteppapaJon
SteppapaJon ok
Nice & I love your little portable test garden! Brilliant!
Let's make it clear. Back to the basic of Science and Technology. So it will more accurate and scientific.
The most important of Metal detector is, "What Are You Looking For ?".
No matter what brands it is. Just look at "Output Frequency" of those Detector.
Here the keys of VLF frequency:
1 Khz - 8 Khz = RELIC, ARTEFACT.
9 Khz - 14 Khz = SILVER, COPPER
15 Khz - 80 Khz = GOLD Nugget
It's example of some VLF detector were value for money :
1. Nokta Au Gold Finder (56 Khz).
2. Fisher Gold Bug 2 (71Khz)
3. Detect EDS Gold Catch (28Khz).
4. Garret AT Gold (18Khz).
5. Xp Deus (4, 8, 12, and 18Khz ).
6. Tesoro Lobo (17.8Khz).
7. Fisher CZ21 (5 Khz and 15 Khz)
8. Teknetics G2 (19 Khz).
9. Fisher CZ3D (5Khz and 15Khz).
Etc.....
All brands is good, all brand has it special ability depend on it .
Happy hunting guys.
Stay smart and Good Luck 🌍🚩
yeah i'm not gonna read that
Antipeluru Coy,
Minelab =
BBS 1.5 - 25.5 kHz
FBS 1.5 - 100 kHz
I believe they have a base frequency though and run on harmonics which is still a great idea, I run 3 different machines, AT Pro, XP Deus & Minelab Sovereign. Each one has its pros and cons, but I look at them as tools of the trade. Since your comment XP have a new coil for the Deus which runs at 15 kHz, 30 kHz or 55 kHz, looks like they are trying to cover all areas!
@wayne Stevens
You're right bro. XP. They are trying to cover all areas with multi frequency.
And i agree, they always had a base of frequency.
Nice video and very informative,i think a lot of detectorist get trapped in the depth game,not realizing other more concerning factors when choosing a detector,the junk that's in most areas is challenging,i know you used iron as an example of maskng the good target because iron is on the bottom end of the metals spectrum,but pulltabs are another problem,i guess like many you must work an area over and over to clean out the junk before you start finding the good targets.
I enjoyed watching your short film I found it of great content and contained very useful information which could help choose which particular machine is best suited to different detecting scenarios.
I myself use the deus and tejon and I felt it's fair to say for reasons of balance when using the tejon in iron infested conditions I would never put the discrim above iron and for better accuracy I'd dig a few iffy signals and set the tejon for conditions on site it's possible with the aid of a small concentric coil to get the world's best iron see through with the tejon.
Good luck and thanks for your films
Thanks. I like your test garden and creative way of placing targets at different depths. I have a Garrett Ace 350 and recently ordered a Tesoro Vaquero. I am confidant It will separate junk from treasure better than my 350.
Thank you Dave,
The Ace and the Vaqureo will complement eachother well. Use the Ace for depth and Tesoro to get the masked targets. I Think you are better of buying 3 Machines for 1000 dollars than 1 supermachine for 2000.
A VERY good Video!! !!!! kind regards from the UK
I still reccon the ACE 250 is the best price and performance deal if you want to spend under $1000 I sold my White when the ace came out as it was so superior...even against the XP range of detectors and at a fraction of the price...Not to mention the excellent one touch notch for unwanted targets...it couldn't be easier...with two different size heads for the ACE250 I can work anywhere even on wet sand...and the build quality is good too, nothing to go rusty like the torro's. nothing goes haywire and needs servicing...just turn on and start hunting ....for up to 36 hours continouse with 1500ma cells....now that's performance that won't break the bank...
+colin martin I also use an ACE 250 and love it.
So if your friend gives you a present. You can pick any detector under a 1000 and you will choose the ace series? Never tried the at pro?
+Michel Jordaan
Well actually yes, i would have an ace250 or even two of them and some change.
Reason ? well, as well as selling detectors I serviced them too!! and the ones that keep coming in time over time for repairs or adjustment would certainly get excluded from my list of detectors that I would choose, and do buy...
It's a fairly powerful detector and very easy to use, light and the batteries last ages, and has what must be the best notch system of all...scan, press the notch and it's done..and there is a visible reminder on the screen...I have also owned and used very complicated and expensive detectors that are hard to set-up and use correctly, that needs constant adjustments to soil changes etc. The ACE 250 works straight out the box !!!
OK what don't I like about it...It could have done with a back light, and I have looked inside, there is little space to add a back light without cutting away at the plastic case. though it's easy to add a light in front of the screen that's not what I would prefer. So mine has none.
When you buy the two head pack I would have liked a second lower pole so that the heads can remain taped to the pole. This is how I modified mine so that a head change is just unscrew the cable connector, slide out the pole and replace it with the second unit complete with smaller head and reconnect the wire. that takes me under 30 seconds. Keeping a correct one loop of the cable at the base of the stem means that changing head angles (when working in buildings to detect on floors and walls etc) wont fatigue the cable where it enters the head...the most common repair and one of the hardest is the cable failing where it enters the head. usually ends up as buying a new head that costs more than an ACE250 !!
The AT pro is just the latest in this new design from garratt with more buttons, i have retired so no longer get to test them, but its from the same stable. so who wants to give me 1000 dollars so i can buy both and compare them?? or lend me one to test for a genuine honest report !!
Just to add a little more info, I have looked at the AT PRO revues... does not really do anything that you can't do with the ace 250 except go underwater. Completely !!! Ok that means that they are competing against other submersible detectors that usually cost a lot...but it wont do anything on dry land that you can't do with their ace250...and at such a price difference !! well it's only the people that want to search underwater that will pay for these and at still a very competitive for a wet machine. The only problem that they have created is the use of those crappy battery holders...They had avoided using them on the ace and 250 model by having a fixed battery tray ( so that means REMOVE BATTERYS when not in use or stick to rechargeable accus) that gave no problems ever.. I have left mine ready to go with quality rechargeable's in for over a year and not had a problem, in fact they were still charged enough for a days detecting!!!
Despite being waterproof the removable battery holders on the AT PRO WILL cause problems as they have done in absolutely every other make of detector !!! So if you are staying on dry land or beaches (even going into 2ft of water) the ACE250 still is the best deal and detector for the money.
You would be mad to buy anything else,,,
+colin martin Ok but for an axample, at my local beach there are lots and lots of small pieces rusted iron, from wreckage i guess. It gives awsome bleeps but all over the screen on my ATpro. With my coinmaster(whites) it reads them very good but you cant determine if its crap or not. Mainly because you can hear how long the beeps are you can hear if its a coin or a piece of scrap. BUT thats only on pro mode not the standard ring tones like the ace. And what you said, the pro is waterproof so rain or anything cant stop me. Depth wise its not much of a difference. If you want to dig it all the ace is the way to go. But after a while you want more options to play around with. The only issue ive had was a broken armrest when i was pounding it trough the water..
Nothing beats a Tesoro in any class from 2k down. NOTHING!!!
Very informative test. if I look at the price-performance ratio of the detectors my choice is clearly the Garret ACE 150.
Yes, the Ace is great for the Money, but in a trashy park you would perhaps be better of with a Tesoro.
it is the handler .not the gear in my opinion .....
used the 1000 dollar machinesand the 250 dollar ones too.
except for nugget hunting or wet salt sand hunting or water hunting only , you will do fine with a 250 one for allround land hunting .
and you will have the same amount of fun , potential treasure ,and reliability.
just my two cents .
Great demonstration!
Very good information. Thank you for your help.
A theory to one of your last statements on why you find at least as much with the cheaper detectors is maybe that (and I have seen this time and time again) most of the good targets are (not) always going to be out of the range of the cheaper detectors and will be well within their detection depth range so Watchara, I think you're onto something with the cheaper vs. expensive (deeper) detector theory. When I have found 1940s American silver Mercury dimes at just 3", this proves my point about a lot of older sites and (FOR) using very affordable detectors (at) these sites. Soil density can dictate how deep any given coin or other objects will can sink too. This is proven by soil scientists around the world (and) by archeologists. By the way those deeper targets that people dig and dig and dig for (may) just be deep trash. Has happened to me and my MD partner on more than one occasion. Out of curiosity, I decided to keep digging and tough it out (until) I find the source of the signal no matter how hard the soil or how deep it is, a number of times. Turns out that it's often times just a deeply buried piece of trash, (especially) if the signal gets wider and wider with a pinpointer as you go deeper. Now in a house yard, you might better dig these till you find the target and dig up all of them really deep. Why?? It (might) be a cache of old coins or jewelry but may normally be purposely buried in the back yard. (Sometimes) I've heard of caches being found in the front yards too though.
Nice comparison review!
Great comparison video. You should find some more machines to test Minelab Bounty Hunter. $7000 vs. $100.
The XP Deus is a very nice machine, but it's $1500 compared to the Garrett for $150. I know which one I'm getting. Thanks for the review, it really helped me appreciate the less expensive options.
when that Tesoro Tejòn went off the first time I about spit out my drink, LOL that sounded like a screaming goat wow. I have an entry level Tesoro that is even lower grade than the one you have. It only has 1 nob that is also the on off switch. I only used it once but I did find a penny on the surface of the dirt in a park where I got the machine. I really want to go out and find stuff more but just was too embarrassed to be seen waving the dector around. Even knowing there is a lot of cool stuff to be found. Anyway, thanks for the video, I now know that until I can get out there, get over my anxiety and actually start finding some easy finds with my current device then I will not buy a new one. I might ask for one for christmas but I wont buy it myself LOL.
+Mikej1592 It´s a Compadre you got. It is a great detector. You do not need to trade it in for something better!Use it and learn fully how to detect. A 2000 dollar MD is not going to give you more finds the first 2 years anyway.
+Watchara Makmee thanks
and, when i got home from work I checked and you are absolutely right, it is the Compadre, again, thanks for the advice, or encouragement to use the one I got before upgrading, at least till I have used it for two years or more. :-)
I would certainly prefer to swing the deus more than any other machine because its so light if that's not a massive advantage I don't know what is, that's another.you still pay for what you get.ive had several machines and my deus has found me my most silver.need I say more
Thank you, again. ..another great review.
Tesoro are very good machines but xp deus is innovation and the disc is not so good as from Tesoro. Regard from German :)
I'd like to see the same test with DD coils instead of concentric vs DD, the concentric is ok on depth but fails on contaminated ground, you would need the narrow magnetic field that the DD generates to pick up the good signal from the bad.
Thank you! Great work!
I've been a ardent detectorist for over 40 yrs ....recorded my first saxon sceats in 1985....and I am still learning all the time ....I often go back to the drawing board so to say ,and always question and test everything I do on all different sites etc.....if you think you know it all then you are making a big mistake ,and I mean that with no disrespect.
Something I noticed is you never put any of the coins on their side which happens and it also makes it harder to find ..thank you for a great video .
i LOL'd at 5:15 of the sound the 3rd metal detector made
Don't forget Watchara. The deeper the detector, the deeper the detection to larger pieces of junk like beer/soda cans at least two feet deep on the beach and with the deeper detectors, they will peg appx. 10-12" deep pieces of shredded or flattened cans at some sites in regular to highly-mineralized soils. Point is, often times flattened/shredded cans will sound like good targets even with a detector with a display and/or blistering depth capability. The i.d. detector's interpretive interface can (often) be fooled as well as the user by the good sound of the very deep trash target. My Tejon will give a false-positive beep on a very deep, larger piece of trash. So there's a (BIG) case to be made in favor of a much less powerful detector at these sites such as a Bounty Hunter Tracker IV. Not a hotrod (8.5" tops on a quarter) and no i.d. screen but (VERY) easy to set up (and) it won't be over-reactive to, nor will it even be able to detect deep trash for that matter so basically, these weaker detectors will beep on the things you manually set it to find and not have to be going after, and wasting time, trying to dig deep trash. I had (MOST) of my luck at average sites using this machine when I got back into detecting a couple of years ago. I first started back in 1989. Never had any performance issues with any of the non screen-i.d. BH's that I've owned/used for that matter. They're VERY versatile without being over hyped on the sensitivity. Take care! Ps; the Deus is (not) as deep as the Tejon with the 10x12" DD coil. The Tejon 10x12" DD can go 13" on a quarter in good soil and would easily find the 7" coin with gobs of power to spare even at 'S Cap' discrimination. The Deus, about 9.5". With the Ace 150 detecting the smaller copper coin and i.d.'ing it as iron, that will throw a (lot) of people off in iron infested sites and after digging a lot of iron at those kind of sites, many people will begin to ignore the iron i.d. since they know it will most of the time (be) iron. (So) (ALL) the old small copper coins that fall into the range of conduction like you used will be ignored by the users of these types of machines. Many manual turn-knob non-i.d. detectors would have detected that coin while (STILL) ignoring most iron except for large iron. (That's) EXACTLY why I don't like screen-type detectors. MOST analog detectors have better recovery speed than the cheaper screen detectors.
interesting test ...thank-you for showing. i run a deus and its not the magic machine that everyone thinks it is. but it is a very good detector and will cope with most situations out there but you need to learn the machine to get the best out of it.
GL&HH
Liked this test. Cheers 🍻
Very Nice test!
I've been detecting quite a while and still found your tests informative.
I use a Deus for my primary machine and White's Dual Field for the beach; Be interesting to compare PI machines in a similar manner but perhaps more geared to depth and signal quality.
I loughed out of that tone of detector 2 ahahahah :D
Go with a tesoro silver sabre,learning it,and..can't be disapointed ^^
Since the coin is the same from any direction (A-B, X-Y), I believe you are picking up the nail which has a different orientation @ 18 Min.
my english is not good. so, wheres the best result?
Great video very very informative thanks for the upload just subbed!!!
Personally like Mine Labs and AT Pros . I have old nautilus deep seeker . Hell on fields where trenches were field in.
Buy old used cheap metal detectors and use it as body .Make your own coil and simple circuit to control it. I saw a lot of plans DIY on the net that are simple and anyone can make. Never hunted for metals but my son wants to play with it and go hunting. So started to look on products-the one I like are pricey so I ll make him something.
The Sound was Amazing
The Deus is a great machine. But my Tesoro's have never done me wrong.
Tesoro lobo forever bro
Never above Iron ,loose of depth ,miss out on 9kt rings small gold .Nickels some chains can give a weird reading and and show up /detected by lower discrimination .Tesoros run at a higher freq.all so etc. enjoyed the video.Geter Dug.Want depth less discrimination .Plus your size of coil will affect out com.
Get a nautilus dmc 2b it can be adjusted to any soil conditions it's the most powerful detector built it runs 40 volts to the coil don't take my word for it give it a try they olney win every year at the detector contests I dug a pice of brass the size of a pellet over a foot under 3steal nails
Good video, I like your test garden. Love the Deus.
what kind of plastic cups are you using? just planter cups? What I took from this video is to grid an area vertically and horizontally. Thanks!
Matt Korte Yes, any garden shop will have all you need to make this.Then you can fill it with soil or sand from your hunting ground.
Great method!
Nice video
Very good video.
Nice! Thank you. Very informative.
Why did you set the discrimination so high on the Silver umax? Foil is a very high setting.
+David Brown : You think so? In Sweden you miss nothing with that setting. You will get good tone on Gold, Silver and all good coins.
You even find the rubbish coins from 1970:th.
+Watchara Makmee q
awesome video!!
A well set up test..thank you..
what about gold vein? how deep these will find small peaces of gold?
And not evrywon has the Mony For more expensive Machines ,But you see it rigth ,the buget machines are rely Good also, But the most people think the find nothing with it,but if you Go For It and stay stady and look for A GOOD Location ,Thats The Most Importendst For All GOOD LUCK!
Nice movie best regards Joop Visser from Holland.
I do my hobby metal detecting almost 45 years.
JOOP VISSER 45 years. I sure like to see your best finds!
What is the price difference in the Ace 150, and the 250? I bet Garrett aint to happy about the fact that they both perform alike, as the detector companies like to charge you $$$ by the depth/capability of the machine.And the fact that I don't see anybody swinging a detector around anywhere(And I have lived in 16 states), you would think the detectors would be cheaper. The prices they put on the detectors are INSANE. It is like they want the machine more than we do.
*****
I really want the AT Pro because of the way it tells you by number, whether you are digging aluminum or a silver coin, as most cheaper units will just give a silver signal, and I end up digging a aluminum can.
Hi the only problem is you not giving price and shrift of it
Why set the discrimination on the tesoros so high.in europe we never do that.
Yes good review!
I have the deus to.
The deus is most powerfull if you know the machine.
What signal to dig and witch settings.
In iron area i always use recovery speed on 3.
Use the hot program. (Google).
And yes the ace is a good machine to.
Greetings william from holland.
The last test Deus finished. Why not go on a nail on the side? Tejon incorrectly set threshold.
Amazingly good tests. You tested in ways I would of never thought of. Obviously you are not new at this detecting business.
There is a lazer one that tells you the year of the coin .
Just bought a Teknetics alpha 2000 gonna try it out soon! Happy hunting all!
Kenneth Jackson great machine👍
you get what you pay for..my finds increased very muc after i got the deus,,deus take coins standing on their egde much deeper..detecting has become fun again i my outhunted field ..good rewiew
tuxnor what was your old machine?
several compass,bounty hunter whites coinmaster 4000/6000,Garrett Gti,Minelab explorer1 and 2.minelab avantage xterra 50-70 and 705.Whites 5000,Eagle,3 x Xlt,Gmt and Dfx,Garret 250 and euroace 350 ,At pro,(still have my Garrett AT gold.)Detectorpro pulse and the headhunter old and new serie.just sold my Gmt..Had more machines than i remember :) but At Gold and Deus is a keeper as it gave me most at same outhunted areas..my first machine was a 1943 US minedetector with backpack..lol had 3 of them with tubes.. and yes still have my Deltapulse pi an 3 more PI diy kit i built my self
tuxnor
I am looking at getting my first machine. It was going to be the AT Gold until I heard it was no good in salt water, which I plan on using it about 10-20% of the time. I am getting an AT Pro sometime this spring, with a 5 X 8" extra coil like the Gold has, and eventually the NEL Tornado 12x13 or whatever it is, for the other areas. Thanks for your reply, friend.
At gold dont works at salty beach at all..i use my only at inland :)
tuxnor Deus is great fun and very capable. You are right about the capture of coins on the edge. It's really good at this. And in England if there are hammered coins within reach, it finds them.
Next time You should make viking vk1 vs c. scope 440 xd vs xp adx 150 vs Saxon SM35 vs pirate silvermax pro vs detech winner II vs goldenmask 1+. Thank you.
Which machines are more durable mechanically, those with push buttons or potentiometer. Great video and tons of information, thanks
I have not had any mashine ever break down yet and I am a dealer.
There was someting wrong with one coil, but the manifacturer (Macro) sent the customer a new one direct.
I think you should stay away from cheaper China brands. A Tesoro has lifetime warranty.
How would you rate an Excalibur II for a beginner ? I'd like to take one to Puerto Rico in January.......
I had minelabs and they are not for beginners. I did not have a good time with those and I found nothing.
But I think you should ask diffrent people and try out a few diffrent one´s before you buy an expensive model.
Go for a cheap MD first. They do ok. I promise. You will not miss anything.
Very nice test, congrats .....I`ll buy the Deus sure¡¡¡
+Dup3r666 Did you buy the Deus? I'm very seriously wanting to buy the Deus also, but would like feedback on someone thats used it with experience. Thanks.
+Patrick O'Connor Yes, I got me a Deus. It is very good. But if you are buying your very first metal detector you could just as well buy a 100 dollars Bounty Hunter or what ever. You will find lots of stuff and have fun.
Like I say in the film - I find just as much with my budget MD. But when I am hunting in places that is very trashy, the deus or Tejón is better.
+Watchara Makmee As I've already stated I'll want and need something with a descent reputation and reliability. So I'm not wanting to save any money at the cost of reliability and quality. Certainly there must be a model that meets the range of say $600 or $700.
+Patrick O'Connor Well, there is nothing flimsy about most budget detectors. Not more than the 700 dollars ones.
They are built with from the same stuff. If you only have 4 hours of metal detecting you will be better of with a simple to use MD.
My first metal detector was a high end Minelab. I did not understand it and I nerver had any fun with it. I found a beer can. Nothing more in hours of use. I think you should not worry to much about your choise. Most metal detectors from 150 dollars and up are great. Some walmart Bounty Hunters for less than 100 are very good.
But if you want more, many people go with Garrett AT Pro or Gold. Waterproof and deep and fast. I like that one too.
+Watchara Makmee OK, I was really liking the XP Deus because of it's weight and wireless capability plus the breakdown to fit in a suitcase. But I'm certain they all can be broken down into a suitcase. SO, the Garrett Ace 350 looks really inviting and offers great depth, which is important for detecting in land that probably has deeper relics than the United States grounds. This is very important. Plus I don't want to spend too much time learning a sophisticated machine while on a vacation and then loosing that valuable time learning. Thank You for taking the time to explain your reasoning and educating me on the machines. Happy to know also that most machine coils offer nearly the same capabilities.
Quite informative.
Of course the main thing that is different between the Deus and the others is the coil on the Deus is 2D all the others are concentric

Tnks ❤
we will estimate how much in depth discussion..thanks do you have the device showing the shape of the room under the floor in alacahöyük çorum
Is a little bit rugged,but there is need to elaborate the ideal.
Great video thanks.....
When a Coin is in the ground for a season, They act differently. Also coin spills will tone like trash. I live in the North West and we had a lot of rain this winter and the ground was saturated. I picked up a signal on a small Gold ring about two feet away and 4" deep with a Garrett gta350. Soil and Soil Condition changes everything. Have Fun Hunting! I have Never Found Nothing!!!
A gold ring is a good find. 98% of Detecting is THE OPERATOR.
thank you......subbed!
Nice video thank you.
interesting info !!

what model the last? I cant see just to see digital detector
Thats the Hard Truth!
Im thinking of getting back into this game after 25 years. still have my Fisher 1266x and was looking to get a new machine, but, for the life of me, I cant see how they have moved on very much???
Am I missing something? These machines are not cheap, yet in every other technology, things have got a lot better and a lot cheaper....whats been going on in the detecting industry?? Do I get retire the old 1266x ? Is it worth it?
So many questions...
+chaseybears Well, I was thinking that the machines are lighter and more user friendly now than 25 years ago.
But perhaps not so much.

I've seen some really great reviews on the Deus...very smart machine Anthrax. Im hoping to get some permissions from some farming friends up York way. I'm in Derbyshire, not so much historic land around my area, low population in the past. But Im taking your advice and getting out with my old Fisher....here's hoping.
Good hunting sir!
