Title: New Deus Coil Post by: rjm on December 23, 2010, 08:09:33 AM The new 13x11" DD coil for the Deus will be out shortly.
It will sell for £349 including lower stem, coil cover, nut/bolt, and VAT at 20%. Further details on the Regton XP site if needed. Title: Re: New Deus Coil Post by: Chef Geoff on December 23, 2010, 08:21:51 AM It looks good Bob and at last a truer comparison can be done with the competition. Unfortunately "shortly" when expressed by Nigel from Regtons can mean anything. I hope it's sooner rather than later.
Title: Re: New Deus Coil Post by: rjm on December 23, 2010, 11:12:47 AM Well, they've released the price in France and here, so it's fairly imminent. My guess is mid January 2011. There's a shortlist so it depends how many each dealer gets from XP. Title: Re: New Deus Coil Post by: Chef Geoff on December 23, 2010, 11:19:58 AM If it proves itself I wonder if XP will be gallant enough to offer it as a standard option instead of the smaller coil.
Title: Re: New Deus Coil Post by: outlaw on December 24, 2010, 08:33:48 AM I have always been loyal to minelab and my elite and se pro. But but, a number of friends who have bought the Deus, and reading posts on performance, does make it a very tempting alternative to the explorers.
Title: Re: New Deus Coil Post by: Jeb on December 29, 2010, 06:32:46 PM It actually looks bottom heavy to me .The balance could be affected .
Title: Re: New Deus Coil Post by: rjm on December 29, 2010, 07:33:58 PM You may be right, Jeb, but it won't be anything near as heavy as a Monsterlab with 15x12 or 18" coil ??? We'll just have to see what it's like when in use. I think it's fairly light as large coils go. I can't wait to see how it performs against the standard coil. |
