The XP Deus II 11″ WS6 Master is hands down one of the most advanced, lightweight, and versatile metal detectors I’ve ever used. Whether you’re a seasoned detectorist or just starting out, this machine is built to impress across the board.
Performance & Precision
What really sets the Deus II apart is its Fast Multi-Frequency (FMF) technology. It processes a wide range of frequencies simultaneously, which means you’re not just guessing at depth or conductivity – you’re getting an incredibly accurate reading, even in tough soil conditions. Whether I’m on a beach, plowed field, or iron-infested ground, the Deus II handles it all effortlessly.
The 11″ coil provides excellent depth without sacrificing sensitivity to smaller targets, which is often a hard balance to strike. I’ve pulled coins, relics, and tiny jewelry from places I’ve searched dozens of times before with other detectors.
WS6 Module – Smart & Compact
The WS6 module is more than just wireless headphones – it’s essentially the brain of the detector in this setup. You can control all settings, ground balance, sensitivity, and even change programs directly from the WS6 unit. It’s super intuitive and makes for a very compact and stealthy detecting setup if you want to go ultra-light.
Build Quality & Ergonomics
The Deus II is unbelievably lightweight – under 2 pounds in the WS6 Master configuration – which makes long hunts way less tiring. The telescopic shaft design folds down small and extends in seconds. Everything feels durable and well-engineered, with a premium finish.
Waterproofing & Versatility
Fully submersible up to 20 meters (66 feet), this detector is a real all-terrain performer. Saltwater beach detecting? No problem. River hunting? Go for it. It doesn’t flinch at mineralized soils or highly conductive environments.
Battery Life
Battery life is impressive – around 15-20 hours per charge depending on usage, and everything charges quickly via USB. A single overnight charge gets me through a weekend hunt with juice to spare.
Customization & Updates
You’ve got multiple factory programs that cover everything from gold prospecting to relic hunting, and they’re all fully customizable. XP regularly releases firmware updates too, which means the machine just keeps getting better over time.
Final Thoughts
The XP Deus II WS6 Master with the 11″ coil is a serious machine for serious detecting. It’s fast, accurate, packed with features, and built like a tank. If you’re ready to take your detecting game to the next level, this is the detector to beat.
It may carry a premium price tag, but you absolutely get what you pay for. Highly recommended.
