How it differs from its neighbors

If you stay in the wash zone and never snorkel, a 16 ft rating is enough. Our page on underwater detectors compares them by depth. The Manticore is Minelab's multi-frequency detector rated IP68. It runs five single frequencies from 5 to 40 kHz plus Multi-IQ+, and Minelab rates it IP68 to 16 ft (5 m). That is about a quarter of the Deus II's depth. It weighs 2.9 lb, a figure we can't set against the Deus II.

The Equinox 900 shares that 16 ft (5 m) rating. Nokta's Legend lists 4, 10, 15, 20 and 40 kHz and the same IP68 to 16 ft (5 m) rating. Nokta lists Bluetooth aptX Low Latency headphones and a spare battery for it; what ships depends on the pack.

For XP owners, the MI-6 pinpointer has a wireless link to the XP Deus, Deus II and ORX. XP rates it to 6 m, short of the detector's 20 m.

Questions about the Deus II

Answered from XP's range page, read Oct. 16, 2026.

To 66 ft (20 m), IP68. A detecting dealer lists the same depth. Bring the supplied antenna.

We don't cite one. XP gives a figure for its lightest setup, and a detecting dealer gives another that includes headphones. The two do not describe the same kit, so neither goes in our table.

For depth, XP's detector wins: 66 ft against 16 ft. The Manticore has a weight we can cite, 2.9 lb; the Deus II has no single figure we can compare. Our side-by-side comparison sets them out field by field.
