The Xtrem Hunter with the Deus II remote weighs 6.4 pounds (2.9 kg). The dual-coil deep-seeking system is heavier due to the larger coil housings and dedicated telescopic stem, but the adjustable handle and arm support distribute the weight for single-operator use during extended surveys. The system is designed for exceptional maneuverability and allows the operator to detect for longer periods despite the weight. Detectorists working deep-target sites often alternate between the Xtrem Hunter for initial sweeps and a lighter standard coil for pinpointing to reduce arm fatigue and take advantage of each system's strengths.
