Hello which one is better and why? I cant decide which one to buy, im watching videos and still cant decide on nikta is great ferrocheck less moderne trash
Hello, it will be my second, i have garett at max. Right now im thinking between Deus 2 and Rutus versa which i saw few days ago on youtube, its looking great, i would like to use for relics and jewerly
In that case, you probably can't go wrong with either the Dēus II or Nokta Legend.
I'd never heard of Rutus until now, but looking them up, some things give me pause...
Warranty is only 2 years.
They don't show a distributor in North America. Who's going to repair it?
They say their detectors are "advanced and innovative" but they are not wireless.
Can't readily find pricing. (Actually, I didn't find any at all.)
I saw some impressive "claims", but no support. Consider the sources of what you're seeing on YT.
I haven't seen any "reviews" but again, I'd consider the sources.
I think what bothers me the most is that there's relatively little/no discussion of them (compared to other brands). Why (or why NOT)? If they were as good as the claims, I think more detectorists would be extolling their virtues on every forum as they do with better-known brands.
Would this be your first detector, or nth, and how would you be using it?
I recently got my first detector. Similarly, it also came down to two: Dēus II or Manticore.
The sage wisdom I got from Merrill and others who made sense was (paraphrasing), when they're that close, you probably can't go wrong with either.
I went with the Dēus II (before Merrill became ambassador), and I have no regrets--I'm loving learning the machine and the hobby.
Why? Recommendations from persons whose opinions I respect, and personal choices. Dēus II is the lightest weight detector on the market AFAIK, and I use it with the remote in my pocket, belt, or left hand, making it even lighter. Important with arthritis & back issues. Wireless, IMO, is the way to go; my coil, remote, headphones & pinpointer can all be yards away from each other, not tied down by chords/wires, and still come through the phones.
FWIW, Dēus II warranty is 5 yrs.; I believe Nokta Makro Legend warranty is 3 yrs.
The answer is yes, they are both good in their own way. The problem is you have to find somebody with a D2 to take a look at. We have tried in the past to check out a D2 and can not find anybody with one to see. I wrote a post on why the manufactures are not having "Meet and greets".
I know what the Nokta says about about the Legend and we find it does alot more then what the manufacture says and that is a bonus.
We saw the D2 for maybe 5 seconds and know nobody who does have one to see, go detect with and mostly compare the D2 to the other many metal detectors we own.
How does it measure up to the Nox 600? Apex? Legend? Any Pulse metal detector?
Uncle Tony said it best: Buying a metal detector before you see it is like getting a mail order bride, You just don't know what you are getting. KellyCo has a excellent return policy and are truthful with all their metal detectors so I would go order from them first after talking to them.
We had a very stressful day full of bad news about cancer so if we are all over the place, we are: From Tom's River to Long Island and parts unknown.
