Hello David
People on the Deus forum are pretty much thick skin, Deus can hold it's own and they know it. Mentioning another detector is welcome here, us Deus owners have nothing to fear
Yes, I figured you'd eventually try one. Like the Deus it has its strong points, both are extremely good both having strong performance. I like both, won't part with either one both are needed for certain types of Hunting.
A friend and I were comparing both this past week, a quick comparison but enough to show us both are extremely sensitive. Fast, and although one had a edge in mineralization the other was still a soild performer.
We're hoping to run more test soon, but I can already see both have advantages over the other but not by much.
The Deus has a slight edge on micro gold, not much. However, With the higher kHz and elliptical coil coming, this will separate it from the other even more. But, as you've noticed. Working in Mineralization was the edge with the other.
Both are good, thats good!
All the best,
Paul
