The XP Deus II 1-meter waterproof cap is a sealed plug designed for the remote control when hunting on land or in shallow water up to 1 meter deep. Deus II owners working wet sand, creek banks, or light surf need this cap to protect the remote's internal electronics from water ingress while maintaining pressure balance. The sealed membrane lets air pass through but blocks water to 1 meter, preventing the remote housing from swelling during temperature or altitude changes that would otherwise compromise the seal.
What's Included with the XP Deus II 1 Meter Waterproof Cap
- XP Deus II Remote Control 1 Meter Waterproof Cap (Gray)
Why Deus II Owners Reach for the 1 Meter Waterproof Cap
- Pressure-balancing membrane: the sealed membrane equalizes internal pressure during temperature swings or altitude changes, preventing the remote housing from distorting or the seal from failing mid-hunt.
- Shallow-water protection: rated to 1 meter, this cap lets you hunt wet sand, shallow creeks, and light surf without risking water damage to the remote's circuitry.
- Land-use compatibility: the membrane design works equally well on dry land, making this a versatile everyday cap for detectorists who hunt varied terrain.
- Drop-in replacement: installs on the Deus II remote control's accessory port.
- Maintains structural protection for remote configurations running advanced metal detector technologies.
- Complements the full XP accessory ecosystem: browse our XP metal detectors - authorized US dealer collection for coils, headphones, and other Deus II components.
Pressure Management in Variable Conditions
The 1-meter cap's sealed membrane is the key differentiator from a solid plug. When you move from a warm vehicle to cold air, or from sea level to elevation, the air inside the remote control expands or contracts. A solid plug traps that air, causing the housing to swell or creating a vacuum that stresses the seal. The membrane in this cap lets air migrate through while blocking water molecules, so internal pressure stays balanced and the housing maintains its shape. Deus II owners who hunt mountain sites or coastal zones where temperature and altitude shift mid-day rely on this cap to prevent seal failure.
Wet Sand and Creek Bank Hunts
The 1-meter depth rating covers the scenarios where the remote control might briefly submerge: kneeling in wet sand to dig a target, crossing a shallow creek, or working the water line as waves lap over your hand. The membrane withstands immersion up to 1 meter for the duration of a typical hunt, giving you freedom to work transitional zones without worrying about the remote. Pair this cap with a waterproof coil (9-inch or 11-inch round from the Deus II lineup) and you have a shallow-water-capable rig for coins, jewelry, and relics in wet environments.
