One of the things Garrett customers pleaded for in the new Pro Pointer was the ability to manually adjust the sensitivity. Are you looking to go all in or do you prefer to start off with one of the basic models? If you are a dedicated detector then a higher quality pinpointer will be absolutely necessary. The first mode consists of a simple vibration, which can be felt when metal hunters locate a hidden metallic object. The second mode is additionally sensitive and will alert the user through a distinctive audible tone. The third option is the most intense setting, with the Fisher F Pulse pinpointer vibrating and audibly notifying you when they you located a hidden metallic object. After 5 minutes of being ON without a button press, the Garrett Pro Pointer AT will begin emitting progressively faster warning chirps for 60 minutes. Press the power button to reset. Auto-Off Feature

To exit the programming mode push and hold the button for 2 seconds or wait for 5 seconds and the device will exit the mode automatically. Fast retune functionCoin and relic hunters who are in less mineralized ground can increase the sensitivity to get better depth and have the ability to pinpoint the tiniest of targets. This also allows you to digger smaller holes – an important element of the Metal Detecting Code of Ethics. The TRX Bullseye is one of the few pinpointers that has tip pinpointing. It doesn’t use the whole head or the body, but the literal tip. The Fisher F Pulse pinpointer comes standard with various convenient settings despite only having one physical button. The first are those that come attached to regular metal detectors. They are quite common, especially with the top of the line metal detectors.

Another impressive feature is the ability to ‘retune’. Retuning allows you to shrink the detection signal which allows you to gain an even more precise location of your target – one of my favorite features! The AT also has two sound modes – audio and vibrate. I like vibrate because it’s silent and you don’t attract a crowd. How does a metal detector work? In simple words, a target signal, either by sound or vibration, is transmitted to your headphones (which may be wired or wireless) when the detector’s search coil is over a target.The pinpointer consists of a unique and timeless abrasion-resistant type material, allowing the it to be waterproof to depths of just over 6 feet. In addition, the utilized materials make the F Pulse one of the most robust, rugged, and consistent metal detectors currently available throughout global consumer markets. The device’s inherited from the previous model its bright orange color, three sensitivity levels and two ways to get a signal from the target (vibration/sound), both automatic and manual adjustment types. There is also a ruler in inches and centimeters on the device case. Control The Pin Pointer is a lightweight, battery-powered metal detector with an average length long enough for comfortable use. The battery has a long lifespan, lasting up to 30 hours. First introduced to the market in 2018, the Fisher F Pulse has experienced enormous success as a metal pinpointer.
