Gary demonstrates the best way to find the ideal reactivity level for your metal detector.
A simple feature that can enhance the performance of your metal detector.
Some manufacturers refer to Reactivity as Recovery speed or Sweep Speed, they all do the same job.

Great video, to your question. I used the White's V3I for many years. Then I got the Equinox 800. When I saw the XP Deus 2 coming out, I made the move. I forgot to say I am in the IT world and have worked with computers for over 30 years. So you asked how did we get by before we had reactivity? I guess I look at is like this. With the V3I the processor was slow and if a site had a lot of junk, I would just move on. Don't get me wrong, the V3I was and still is a great machine. However, the processor just does not match. The Equinox 800 was fast, but I missed the ability to make all the settings changes I could with the V3I. You are 100% right, you need a machine that you can adjust for the ground. The ground will make it or break it. The XP Deus 2 gives you the ability to make those adjustments and bring the ground to it's knees. With these settings you can tame this beast we call soil. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Gary, most of the land I detect is quite quiet so on my D1 I can run Sens 93+ and set Reactivity at 2-2.5, perhaps 3 on the occasional 'noisier' area with Silencer -1. 👍🏻

Cheers Neil, that sounds like most of my land.
My problem is aluminum. Great Lake's beaches are full of it. Mimics silver depending on if its foil, nuggets, ring pulls, cans, chunks. Deus, Mine Lab, Garrett in my arsenal. Deus I find in X-Y screen does well, old Minelab Pro very sensitive & ears discriminate the chirps, Garrett ATX, well, I find all kinds of thing's at 2+ feet depending on size. Old RR ties with zinc plated nails, drain pipes, boat parts (boat engine prop, hope the folks had oars). Air plane wheel? Camping equipment pieces parts. No treasure chests yet. Thanks Gary, great teacher. Really know your Deuses! Taught me a lot. Appreciate it.

Excellent video Gary, indeed, reactivity is in my opinion is probably one of the most important settings to comprehend, I can think of one of my farms I detect here in Wiltshire that has a very large dairy herd, and all the slurry etc is regularly deposited on the ground, a reactivity of anything below 3 is useless, minerals won’t allow low reactivity settings. I believe many users are almost blinkered into being transfixed with depth and are quite possibly walking over so many missed targets using a incorrect reactivity setting, fascinating stuff,, may I just add,,,, I reckon a reactivity setting of 3.5 would be greatly appreciated! All the best…. Dave.

Thanks, as always, for yet another really helpful video & tips Gary! I’m a slave to Relic mode, I just love it, and really only move the reactivity & sensitivity depending on the ground. It’s reassuring to hear your thoughts are similar to mine based on the land / soil etc. was great to meet you at Detectival, albeit briefly. Keep up the great work, Marcus

I tend to use 2.5 on average but I have an earring problem at high frequencies so difficult sometimes
Great explanation on reactivity, do you think frequency makes a difference on fluffy plough soil or dry soil or would you say frequency is more target specific?

Did you actually watch the video? 0_o 🤔 It all depends on location, conditions, user preference and swing speed. Lower reactivity will give you more depth, but less separation and vice versa.

Gary, I think the title should be Ultimate performance and Ultimate battery drain. Advice welcome from other searchers with a Deus II. I would like to know the battery status of your Deus II coil after a day or half a day of searching. and would also like to know if it is the 9 or 11 inch. Thanks in advance..

@@The-skillschool Yes thank you Gary but that is and does not solve the problem. what you mentioned in the video I have already set from day one that searches with the Deus II. It seems to be a bigger problem and XP itself isn't happy about it. My 9 inch coil has been under investigation in France for three weeks. I have already received a replacement 9 inch coil and this one is even worse than the first. (four hours and 50 minutes) The importer of XP Deus here also tested a 9 inch coil this weekend and the battery is also empty after almost six hours and standard program 2. This is unacceptable!! you can show as many tips as you want but XP must seriously solve this problem or there will be a lot of complaints. Again my question to other Deus II users please mention your battery life here of the coil I would like to hear what your battery status is of the coil after a few hours
