XP DEUS S-Telescopic Dive Shaft for XP Deus II Metal Detector

The XP DEUS S-Telescopic Dive Shaft is the first telescopic S-stem designed for underwater detecting with the XP Deus II. Deus II divers working shallow reefs, rivers, and surf zones need a shaft that collapses for boat storage and extends for reach without adding bulk to the kit. XP's research department collaborated with active divers to refine the ergonomics: the handle matches the S-TELESCOPIC Lite design for familiar grip, the antenna integrates into the shaft to eliminate external cables, and the camlock pin is plastic rather than stainless steel so the coil doesn't detect the hardware. The shaft collapses to fit in a gear bag and extends to full length in seconds.

What's Included with the XP DEUS S-Telescopic Dive Shaft

• XP DEUS S-Telescopic Dive Shaft for Deus II (remote control and coil sold separately)

Why Deus II Divers Reach for the S-Telescopic Shaft

• Instant storage and deployment: collapses to half its extended length for boat transport and expands when you hit the water, no tools required.
• Plastic camlock pin eliminates false signals: the stainless steel pin used on land shafts is replaced with a plastic pin so the coil doesn't detect the fastener during sweeps.
• Integrated antenna routing: the wireless antenna runs inside the shaft, protecting the connection from snags on kelp, rocks, and underwater debris.
• Lightweight monobloc lower stem: the 285-gram construction keeps the detector balanced underwater without adding fatigue during long dives.
• Doubles as a compact land shaft for youth detectorists: the collapsed length suits children up to 1.2 meters tall, making it a versatile option for families.

Maneuverability in Tight Underwater Environments

Deus II operators working boulder fields, submerged pilings, and reef crevices benefit from the S-Telescopic's compact collapsed profile. The shaft stores at half its extended length, which matters when you're navigating tight entry points or working from a kayak. The monobloc lower stem support eliminates the wobble common in multi-piece shafts, keeping the coil stable during slow sweeps over uneven bottoms. The plastic camlock pin is a functional detail: stainless steel pins on standard shafts can trigger false signals when the coil passes over the fastener, a problem XP solved by switching to a non-metallic material. The integrated antenna protects the wireless connection from the abrasion and snags that plague external cables in underwater environments.
