Deus lite hf or Orx Hf help needed.
« on: May 01, 2019, 10:25 pm »
I need a light weight machine for when my shoulder is bad.. I use Anfibio for pasture as I like it’s depth and T2 sparkiness.. I’ve had a Deus in the past and i only need it for busy areas and when my shoulder plays up. I tend tones rather than looking at the screen so I’m sure I would go for the 9”HF. I’m not sure if to go Orx or Deus Lite..

There are added adjustments to the headphones now, so the Lite has been improved.

I agree the Orx is a step down from a Deus

With the added headphone functionality of V5.2, the Lite makes so much more sense for similar money. Plus, you always have the option of upgrading to full Deus by adding the remote at a later date.

Deus every time for me and its paid me back many times over the last 10 years.

I was once a Minelab nut and they do produce good machines, but they are making up for lost ground over the last 18 months. ;)

There lies the nub, where will the ground come from for folks to use them in the not so distant future.

Only a minority of us detectorists filled out the Questionnaire giving our opinions and views of the proposed changes to the treasure act.  >:(

I wonder where all these detectors that will be surplus to requirements will end up. ::)

Bought it for the wife Jerry, 2 months second hand for 860.
It's never moved !
Pointless keeping it, she might as well use the kids ace250... If ever at all  ;D

You don't see many at that price (more like £900), so you got a proper bargain there :)

Well, actually you do see the odd full Deus advertised at a very low price (and ludicrously cheap CTXs). However, the snag is that for some odd reason the "seller" will normally not allow collection and will only accept bank transfer or Paypal friends and family payments. I wonder why... ::)
