Do-it-yourselfers have rolled out a new product 2017 – a true sniper coil for the XP Deus metal detector. Size: 5.5 inches. Operates at 4 frequencies. Has been paired with the XP Deus remote control at the touch of a button.
We have already seen how a DIY coil is made: they take a donor unit (here it was a broken stock XP 22.5 coil), remove electronics components and insert them just anywhere. In this particular case, it was a sniper coil.
Here’s another example of a sniper coil for the XP Deus. The operating principle is the same.
All content related to the XP Deus metal detector is collected here. Also, on Knowledgebase pages there is additional useful information on this machine – e.g., repair & improvements related subpages or tests on gold targets (plenty of everything to be found there).
A few years ago I got an offer to participate in the project Universal adaptor for XP Deus coils. It was an interesting concept: the lower stem with electronics, a battery and a jack. Simple and convenient linking up to off brand coils.
At that time I considered this stem to be not the best solution. Now, when XP itself has integrated the battery into the lower shaft, I think back to that time.
The concept stipulated that the XP Deus remote control would have only one coil included as an option (in point of fact it was a stem with electronics), and you could change the coils as you like without undue switches and other options to be included in the detector’s menu.
and is there any video on how to make it
Nice made … Just funny that I made this excactly the same, 3 years ago.. I even made one eliptical 5.5×7 and a round 6″ – both with same controlunit at the lower stem.
Mine was the first sniper coil in the World made fore XP Deus.
Did you try create a mono diy coil for Deus?
Thanks!
Hi can I ask what coil did you use to make that 5” sniper and does it need to be a 2d coil ?
Thank you
