XP Deus Silicone Rainproof Wristband for WS4 and WS6 Headphones

The XP silicone wristband transforms the WS4 or WS6 headphone control pod into a wrist-mounted remote for Deus and Deus II detectors. Detectorists hunting in rain, cold, or heavy brush mount the pod on their forearm for instant access to settings, target ID display, and wired headphone connectivity without reaching for a hip-mounted box or backphone module. The adjustable silicone strap fits over jackets and wetsuits, and the rainproof construction handles wet conditions that would compromise a handheld remote.

What's Included with the XP Wristband

• XP silicone wristband for WS4 or WS6 control pod (control pod and headphones sold separately)

Why Deus and Deus II Owners Reach for the Wristband

• Wrist-mounted control pod access eliminates the need to reach for hip-mounted boxes or remove backphones during hunts, keeping both hands free for digging and target recovery
• Rainproof silicone construction protects the control pod in wet weather, allowing full detector operation in rain and snow without waterproof housing compromises
• Adjustable strap fits over heavy coats and wetsuits, making the wristband viable for cold-weather relic hunting and shallow-water beach detecting where bulky clothing would interfere with other mounting options
• Target ID display on the wrist provides visual confirmation in high-noise environments where audio-only operation misses subtle ID shifts, particularly useful for XP metal detectors running multi-frequency programs
• Wired headphone jack compatibility allows detectorists to connect low-impedance studio headphones or earbuds for superior audio clarity compared to the stock wireless backphones, a measurable advantage in trashy sites where target separation depends on subtle tone breaks

Hands-Free Operation in Cold and Wet Conditions

Winter Relic Hunting with Layered Clothing

The wristband's adjustable silicone strap expands to fit over insulated jackets and gloves, keeping the WS4 or WS6 control pod accessible when detectorists are bundled for sub-freezing field sessions. Hunters working colonial homesites or Civil War camps in January and February mount the pod on their left forearm and adjust discrimination or sensitivity without removing gloves or unzipping layers. Understanding the technologies behind modern detectors helps operators choose the right frequency and ground balance settings for frozen soil.

Rainy Park and Beach Sessions

The rainproof silicone housing shields the control pod from direct rain and splashing surf, allowing uninterrupted operation in conditions that would force other detectorists to pack up. Beach hunters working the wet sand line during incoming tides mount the wristband high on the forearm to keep the pod above wave splash. Park detectorists hunting in steady rain access target ID and program switching without moisture ingress. The wristband does not provide submersion waterproofing (the WS4 and WS6 pods are not rated for underwater use), but it handles surface water that would otherwise short exposed circuit boards.
