How did you manage to get so much power from such small, lightweight batteries, when those in most other powerful metal detectors weigh 100 to 150 g?

Despite the battery’s small size, the power of the coil is at least as great as the Gold Maxx Power, for instance.
It is difficult to explain in just a few lines as it involved a great deal of research.
We optimised the efficiency of various elements such as the coils and the amplification stages. There was also the choice of a high-capacity lithium battery and leading-edge electronic components that were more expensive and precise than those usually found in metal detectors.
These highly efficient circuits waste far less power: It would be similar to compairing the normal household incandescent light bulbs which are very inefficient, losing 80% of their energy as heat, to those of LED lighting, which uses all of their energy for light rather than heat!

Can I really recharge the 3 elements with the AA battery backup charger? Can a single battery fully charge the detector?

The XP emergency charger can only recharge one element at a time. You are advised to keep this reserve recharging system mainly for recharging the coil, which has a shorter battery life than the remote control or the headphones (10 hours compared with 22 hours).
In only 30 minutes, and using just a single 1.5 volt standard alkaline AA battery, the backup charger will charge the equivalent of 3 hours of coil operation, or 6 hours of remote control/headphones operation.
If you are in a hurry, you can recharge the detector for only 15 minutes, which will give you an additional 1 to 2 hours of detecting time.
The 1.5 volt AA battery can only be used once, as it becomes depleted very quickly in the first 30 minutes of charging, before slowly completing the charging over a further 1 to 2 hours.
Ultimately it will only recharge your coil (or remote control) partially, by about 60%, which is normally enough to complete a full day of detecting.

Can I charge my coil even when its charging contacts are dirty? Isn’t there a risk of short-circuits in the water or elsewhere?

The coil’s charging contacts are flush with the upper side of the coil, they have no rough edges and can be cleaned simply by wiping them with your finger. The charging clamp connects easily, due to the raised guides on the coil cover; these are robust enough to accept the clamp even when dirty. Even without the coil cover (and its guides) you can connect the clamp by manually aligning the charging contacts.

The charging contacts are then shielded internally by a protection circuit. In simple terms, the current can go in but cannot come out again. So there is no risk of short circuit when in contact with water or metal.
Nevertheless, you should never tamper with the power supply or try to charge the detector with anything other than the XP charger, as this is very dangerous and could lead to fire or explosion.

How is the device powered? Are the charger and batteries supplied? Can you recharge all three elements (headphones, remote control and coil) at the same time?

The search coil, remote control and headphones are all powered by identical lithium polymer batteries. These miniatures, high-capacity batteries can be recharged quickly.
The power adaptor supplied, enables all three elements to be charged simultaneously when used with the USB/3 mini-B cable, also supplied.

Batterie life:
Wireless headphones: 21 Hours
Remote control: 21 Hours
Coil: 9/10 Hours on average (see table)

The search coil’s battery life may vary depending on the modes used. The table below shows battery life according to frequency and power selected.

Frequency 18kHz power at 1 = 14 Hours
Frequency 18kHz power at 2 = 10 Hours
Frequency 18kHz power at 3 = 8 Hours 45 mins

Frequency 12kHz power at 1 = 13 Hours 30 mins
Frequency 12kHz power at 2 = 9 Hours
Frequency 12kHz power at 3 = 8 Hours

Frequency 8kHz power at 1 = 13 Hours 30 mins
Frequency 8kHz power at 2 = 9 Hours
Frequency 8kHz power at 3 = 8 Hours

Frequency 4kHz (fixed power) = 7 Hours 30 mins


Our retailers will offer numerous optional charging accessories, including a charger that plugs into a car cigarette lighter.
There is also a miniature field charger powered by just a single 1.5 volt AA battery, which enables the detector to be partially charged (40 to 60%) in just 25 to 40 minutes – very practical!

What is the battery life of DEUS’s batteries?

Batterie life:
Wireless headphones: 27 Hours
Remote control: 27 Hours
Coil: 15 Hours on average (model from june 2010, 9 Hours before june 2010)

The search coil’s battery life may vary depending on the modes used. The table below shows battery life according to frequency and power selected.

Frequency 18kHz power at 1 = 20H
Frequency 18kHz power at 2 = 14H
Frequency 18kHz power at 3 = 11H

Frequency 12kHz power at 1 = 19H
Frequency 12kHz power at 2 = 13H
Frequency 12kHz power at 3 = 11H

Frequency 8kHz power at 1 = 19H
Frequency 8kHz power at 2 = 13H
Frequency 8kHz power at 3 = 11H

Frequency 4kHz (fixed power) = 11H

DEUS is regulated in such a way that avoids any deterioration in performance even when the battery level is lower!

If Deus is not fully charged, is there any loss of performance?
