The XP DEUS II is a wireless multi-frequency metal detector that transmits 4 to 45 kHz simultaneously through Fast Multi Frequency (FMF) technology, designed for detectorists who hunt across parks, beaches, mineralized ground, and underwater sites to 66 feet. Built with XP's patented radio protocol, the coil, remote control, and WS6 wireless headphones communicate without latency, so target signals reach your ears instantly with no delay between detection and audio response. Waterproof to 20 meters and weighing under 2 pounds with the remote hip-mounted, the DEUS II handles saltwater beaches, freshwater creeks, iron-contaminated farm fields, and gold-bearing country with equal stability. Serious detectorists who've run single-frequency machines in variable ground know the frustration of retuning every time mineralization shifts; the DEUS II's simultaneous multi-frequency transmission eliminates that workflow, letting you focus on targets rather than settings.

Fast Multi Frequency Performance Across Mineralized Ground and Saltwater
Beach and Saltwater
The DEUS II's FMF technology maintains stable target ID in wet sand and shallow surf where single-frequency detectors false on salt mineralization. The 11-inch coil is fully submersible to 66 feet with the aerial antenna attached, so you can hunt tide pools, swim zones, and shallow wrecks without worrying about seal integrity. Ground tracking adapts to changing sand composition as you move from dry to wet, and the waterproof remote lets you adjust discrimination and sensitivity without leaving the water.
Parks and Lawns
In urban parks with decades of trash layering, the DEUS II's reactivity settings (adjustable target separation speed) let you isolate coins and jewelry sitting inches from pull tabs and foil. The wireless design eliminates cable snag on benches and playground equipment, and the 11-inch coil covers ground quickly in open turf while still resolving targets in tight clusters. We've pulled silver dimes from tot lots where iron nails and aluminum cans dominate the first 6 inches of soil.
Farm Fields and Old Homesteads
Plowed fields with variable iron content benefit from the DEUS II's simultaneous frequency transmission, which reduces false signals from hot rocks and rusted farm debris. The detector's motion and non-motion modes (pinpoint) let you switch between sweep detection and stationary target verification without rebalancing. Ground grabbing locks the detector to current soil conditions in seconds, useful when you're crossing from clay to sandy loam mid-hunt.
Gold-Bearing Country
The DEUS II's 4 to 45 kHz range includes frequencies optimized for small gold, and the FMF programs let you run multiple frequencies at once to catch nuggets that single-frequency detectors miss in mineralized soil. The 11-inch coil provides depth on larger nuggets while maintaining sensitivity to sub-gram pieces, and the wireless headphones deliver clear audio in windy desert washes where external speakers struggle.

Wireless Design and Ergonomic Build for All-Day Hunting
- Zero-latency signal transmission: XP's patented radio protocol sends target data from coil to headphones instantly, no cable delay or Bluetooth lag.
- Lightweight construction at under 2 pounds: the S-telescopic stem collapses for transport and extends tool-free in the field, reducing wrist and shoulder fatigue on long hunts.
- Independent battery life: remote runs up to 25 hours, headphones up to 17 hours, coil up to 20 hours depending on program and frequency selection, so you're not tethered to a single power source.
- Waterproof remote control: fully over-molded with rubber, multipoint stainless steel connector for charging and updates, backlit graphic display readable in full sun.
- WS6 headphones with onboard menu: rain-proof, foldable design with removable module and clear graphic screen, so you can use the headphones as a standalone master control when the remote is hip-mounted.

Compare within the family
Detectorists cross-shopping the XP DEUS II metal detector line often weigh the DEUS II's simultaneous multi-frequency against the ORX's selectable single frequencies and the ICON-X's streamlined interface.
