Hello

Well the Deus as you know arrived monday and due to commitments i still havent unboxed and set it up yet but have had a quick glimpse. Looks very neat & contoured stylish, well constructed.

I am going to be getting it out of the box in an hour and setting it up. Bit nervy about it as I don't want to muck out up but will attempt to follow the manual.

Will report back soon.

Cheers

Steven.

Hello Sugar & GeoffBristol

going to unpack it now! going to charge it from the mains. As its a new one, is it best to charge the HeadPhone, Remote/Control & Coil all at the same time ?

Will wait for reply before going ahead. If say one item charges 1st and 1 or 2 of the other items finish earlier would this cause any damage ?

Cheers

all at the same time scrape, when the coil starts to flash all 3 should be charged.. do not leave on charge overnight say.........

You can do them all at the same time and it has no battery memory, so you cannot reduce its capacity for a full charge. Make sure you don't try to put the coil charger on the wrong way around, Liam B-)

Hello Kmarsh & Liam

When i opened the box the Blue light on the coil was flashing! but was told this was doing it becuase the coil is in standby so their must be some charge in it. But if it was in Standby is this meaning you carn't actually turn the power off at all on the coil?

Thanks

no plug all three in you can only get the coil one on one way as there is a big end and small end and you will see which way it goes put the wire into clip before putting it on as this is easier the wire will come across the stem if in correctly charge all three and when the coil is fully charged it flashes whilst charging it is constant so flashing means charged picture of connections page 33 hehehehe
