The Metal Detector Pinpointer 5 Popular Models
Serious treasure hunters know that for exact finding of small targets, a metal detector pinpointer is essential. So which of them are any good? These 5 pinpointers are used by hobbyists and professionals, and are among the many hottest choices for precision hunting.
Garrett Pro Pointer The ProPointer makes use of static detection for fast, simple target retrieval. It is water resistant and can be washed after use. It featured 360 degree side scanning, an LED light and a scraping blade. It normally goes for around $150.
Sun Ray X-1 In-Line Target Probe That is thought-about by many to be the most effective metal detector pinpointer, and as such it's the priciest at one hundred seventy dollars or so. It really works as a secondary coil, and prompts on the flick of a switch. It uses the same power source as your detector and has all the identical capabilities (alarms, visual ID). It may be submerged in water, so long as the switch box (which is waterproof only) is not.
Detector Pro UniProbe It is a probe, headphone and pulse inductance metal detector multi function single unit. You can use it alone, or with your major detector. In the event you add a search coil and rods, it becomes a whole metal detector all on its own.
The electronics are all inbuilt to the headphones. Works with recent and salt water and with all forms of ground minerals. In fact, all of this means a hefty value tag...about $350.
White's Bullseye II Pinpointer This can be a handheld metal detector pinpointer that may run up to 20 hours on one 9 volt battery. It does not require tuning. It has a helpful LED light, so you'll be able to see deep down into these dark holes and crevices. White's is a well-liked and trusted name in metal detecting, but surprisingly this pinpointer is a really affordable a hundred dollars or so on average.
Bounty Hunter Pinpointer A low price tag (around $50) doesn't mean low efficiency! This metal detector pinpointer is small, light and simple to use, and makes it excellent for novices or casual hobbyists who don't need or need a ton of bells and whistles.
Sensitivity is managed and adjusted by one knob. The value is correct, and the efficiency is sound. All in all, a good little metal detector pinpointer for basic, casual treasure hunting. If you have kids, this is a nice choice for them as well, since it's simple to function and to understand.
