Honestly if I was in the market, I would get it. It reminds me of a wired version of the Deus.
Yes, like a Deus but without the constant chatter!

Would you please let us know what you find out? If it isn't bad I still may go this route.
I was curious regarding its ground balancing. apparently there isn't any, or something weird like that? What some people were rumoring. not sure but it looks like a good machine. I too would like to know more. It sucks there isn't any domestic support for it.

Not tried it mate, i have had the R2 which is the same platform. My soil reads med-high and the R2 was strangled for depth.
I do like the idea of online updates with the Impact, i don't like the extra weight, no concentric coil, fixed reactivity in the factory modes etc
The Rutus offers me more flexibility.
I do understand though the value of having a distributor or dealer in the same country, which Rutus doesn't have in the US.
I thought you were impulsive..
I got a very similar response from Laura at Detecnicks, recommending waiting until the software update, one or two weeks. She also told me that she personally owns the previous model, Rutus Jupiter, and there was one small issue resolved quickly after that no problems over years of use and ownership, and with Rutus' service and resolution of problems for customers being excellent. I am going to nail down the service procedure and costs to ship if repair is needed and then make a decision. It looks like a very nice and reliable detector.
I've just got one, having a ball learning it, loads of potential.
