The XP Deus II is the first fully wireless metal detector to run true simultaneous multi-frequency detection, transmitting across the spectrum in real time through XP's FMF (Fast Multi Frequency) technology. The coil, remote control, and optional headphones communicate wirelessly using XP's patented radio protocol, delivering target signals to your ears without latency. This configuration ships with the 13x11" FMF coil, S-telescopic stem, and the waterproof remote control for detectorists who hunt parks, beaches, and gold-bearing ground where simultaneous frequency coverage and coil diameter both matter. Designed for coin shooters, relic hunters, and prospectors working mineralized soil or wet salt, the XP Deus II covers the full frequency range without toggling between modes.
What's Included with the XP Deus II
- XP Deus II metal detector with remote control, backlit graphic display, and hip-mount case
- 13x11" FMF search coil with coil cover
- S-telescopic stem with lower stem
- Aerial antenna for underwater use with clip
- Gray cap for the remote and red cap for diving
- Charging cable for coil, remote, and firmware updates

Fast Multi-Frequency Performance in Mineralized Ground and Wet Salt
Parks and Lawns
The Deus II runs FMF across 49 selectable single frequencies or simultaneous multi-frequency programs that cover the full spectrum at once. Simultaneous transmission means you're not toggling between frequencies to optimize for a target type; the detector processes all frequencies in parallel, so a silver dime and a gold chain both generate clean signals on the same pass. We've hunted the Deus II metal detector in iron-choked parks where older single-frequency machines mask good targets under bottlecaps and pull tabs, and the FMF platform separates conductors reliably. The 13x11" coil sweeps wide for ground coverage without sacrificing target separation in trashy turf.
Beach and Saltwater
The Deus II is waterproof to 66 feet with the aerial antenna installed, so you can hunt surf zones and shallow wading areas where wet salt typically destabilizes single-frequency VLF detectors. FMF stabilizes ground balance across shifting mineralization, and the wide coil footprint covers more sand per sweep. The remote control is fully overmolded with rubber and rated IP68, so rain and splashing won't shut you down mid-hunt. For detectorists who cross-shop waterproof metal detectors 65 feet and deeper, the Deus II delivers true dive capability without the bulk of a pulse induction rig.
Gold-Bearing Ground
Prospectors working ironstone, caliche, or black sand benefit from the Deus II's upper frequency range and simultaneous multi-frequency transmission. The platform runs frequencies up to the top of the spectrum, so small nuggets and fine gold chains generate strong responses without manually shifting to high-frequency single modes. Ground tracking adjusts automatically as mineralization changes, and the reactivity settings let you tune recovery speed for dense target fields or slow the detector down for maximum depth in open ground.
Wireless Architecture and Battery Life for Long Field Sessions
- Fully wireless operation: coil, remote control, and optional headphones communicate via XP's patented radio protocol with zero latency, so target signals reach your ears instantly without the delay common in Bluetooth systems.
- Remote control battery life up to 25 hours depending on audio output settings: run all day without swapping cells, and the backlit graphic display stays readable in direct sun or low light.
- Waterproof to 66 feet with aerial antenna installed: hunt surf zones, wade creeks, or dive shallow wrecks with the full detector submerged, the overmolded remote and IP68-rated coil handle submersion without leaking.
- 13x11" coil footprint for ground coverage: the elliptical FMF coil sweeps wide paths in open fields and beaches, reducing the number of passes needed to cover a site while maintaining target separation in trashy ground.
- 12 factory programs plus 12 user-configurable slots: start with XP's tuned presets for coins, relics, or gold, then save your own custom settings as you learn the detector's response in your local soil.
