This is the Elephant in the room and your the first person I’ve seen mention it. This machine will challenge the Nox on the beach and the Excal in the water. Possibly eliminating both machines from your repertoire, for those that beach hunt and dive below 65ft. That’s me. Remember recreational dive limits are 130ft and all my treasure diving is 10-40ft. So any machine that goes below 130 is designed for Tech divers and I’ve never met or seen a tech diver.It looks fantastic. If it performs like the manual explained then gonna be a few legend orders cancelled and some equinoxes sold in my opinion. I know the price is double on the deus 2 but from what I'm seeing this could eliminate the need of owning several detectors. For me it will. My buddy said the same thing. He has the xcal , nox and Garrett sea hunter mark II . But he doesn't dive any deeper than 30 feet so he said he will most likely sell all of them and buy this. Saves space, easier to travel with, learning one machine really well is always better than switching between 3. Well usually lol. XP really surprised me even though I love my deus I always hoped for a simultaneous multifrequency deus .
I'm betting the deus 2 will be better than what we've seen so far. I already know XP make great detectors so this is where my money is going. Mine has been on order since announced and I've sold everything except my deus.This is the Elephant in the room and your the first person I’ve seen mention it.

It is wired when used under water. You have to use the antenna cable when the unit is submerged.So, if the Deus can't be used in water, how is the Deus 2 going to transmit the signals to-and-from the coil and controller? I must have missed that, if it isn't wired.

It looks like they are including the antenna wire as part of the package according to the manual.So, if the Deus can't be used in water, how is the Deus 2 going to transmit the signals to-and-from the coil and controller? I must have missed that, if it isn't wired.
