Metal Detector Pinpointer - Fully Waterproof Handheld Pin Pointer Wand, High Accuracy Professional Search Treasure Pinpointing Finder Probe

I needed to verify the boundary lines on my property, and also help my neighbor who wanted to put in a small fence for her dog.I found this item reliable, and I had read the reviews. It was easy to use and it came with a holster for carrying it around.Using a plot map and this tool, we were able to establish where the property lines were.As long as stakes are in the ground, it is useful. If in doubt, consult a surveyor to be sure.

All the detectorists who have been at it awhile tout the other, expensive pinpointer as the one to buy. I’m on a fixed income, and this was more in my price range. I LOVE IT! I’ve used it on the beach, in the water, and in the woods. It has performed extremely well! And on one 9-volt battery since March; but my hunting trips are much shorter than average. This pinpointer is an excellent first tool.

It will be good for checking my wood for nails. I used it to find a list piece of gold in my shrubs. Not dynamic range, for short distances. Still very nice.

I bought this with the expectation that I might need to send it back for not meeting my needs. Why, you might ask? Because I bought it as a tool to help my main metal detector pinpoint the location of gold nuggets. Gold nuggets, especially small ones, are typically difficult to detect with cheap detectors, so I wasn’t expecting much. I was very surprised and happy when I put it close to one of my small nuggets at home and it started to emit a tone. I gave it an even harder task when I ran a vial of small gold flakes across the tip, yet it surprised me again with a tone. It appears that it will most likely suit my needs. I am very happy that I didn’t have to buy the (many times more expensive) name brand alternative. Now I just need to put it to the test “in the field” and see if it detects small nuggets in situ!

Works great and very accurate and durable

I wanted a pin pointer for meta detecting but I was just starting out so I didn’t want to spend a ton of money. The name brand pointer was $150. I spent $27 on this one and I tell you I couldn’t be happier. Although this product seems to have mixed reviews, I found it does exactly what I want it to do. It has cut my time I half and easily locates small pieces of metal in the larger plugs I dig. I have used this on a dozen trips so far, put it in dirt, sand and a few inches of water and it still performs perfectly. I have used it for approximately 30 hours and have not had to change the battery yet. I love it and would definitely buy it again. I may buy another just as a back up. Love it!

I haven't had a chance to get out in the field yet but so far, so good.Ordered the Hompo and received a GP-Pointer (on box and actual detector). Looks just like the Hompo and I consider this an upgrade! It says Garrett Pro (GP) right on the instructions. Yay me and Thanks Amazon! Turned it on and it has great sound and vibration when in proximity of metal. Start at about 5" for larger metal objects and around 2-3" on the smaller stuff. Appears to be just what I need to go along with my Nox 800.If I have any issues, I'll update this review. 1/10/25

Powered on once. Seemed to be working somewhat identifying coins as metal when placed before it but the distance was about an inch for it to respond. Would not power up again. Have to find a Staples 20 miles away to return. Sorry would not recommend.
