Been about reading and following Maoquan Deng for a few weeks now (business). Deteknix is not your typical "Chinese detector" offering. Mr. Deng follows all trademark applications to the T. A smart businessman/engineer. Growing Deteknix a step at a time since 2013. If the first XPointer had problems, they were worked out before the next new idea was implemented. It's hard to start a new business. But Deteknix is providing a "good" product at a "good" price.
Even though the heat may come down on Deteknix as a "Chinese" brand, Mr. Deng has found a mutual bond that has China manufacturing components, and the final assembly, quality control and shipping for the new Quest Detectors are done in Corvina, CA. Taking advantage of lower labor costs and higher quality control allows for a best of both worlds scenario when marketing a product.
From my own experiences, Deteknix products are worth every penny of the investment I made in them. And I'm hoping the Quest trio of new detectors are the same. The pics and info alone are enough to give a second glance to.
From the business side, this small business by Maoquan Deng has been well executed with vision and provision. And Mr Deng has every reason to be proud of his accomplishments, even from Shenzhen (Hong Kong).
