Pinpointer – a must-have for every successful detectorist
A pinpointer is an indispensable tool for every detectorist who wants to locate their finds faster and more precisely. In our online shop, we offer a large selection of pinpointers that will make your treasure hunting easier and faster. Learn more about why a pinpointer is so important and how to find the best pinpointer for your needs. In our blog post about pinpointers, you will find all the important information.
Buying a Pinpointer – What is a Pinpointer?
A pinpointer is a small handheld detector specifically designed to precisely locate metal objects once they have been detected by a metal detector. While the metal detector covers a larger search area, the pinpointer helps to determine the exact location of the object. Especially when prospecting, a pinpointer is a useful tool to speed up the search and minimize digging. Purchasing an affordable pinpointer is a sensible investment for all detectorists who want to make their treasure hunting more efficient.
Why is a Pinpointer so important?
Using a pinpointer can significantly reduce the time you spend digging. As soon as your metal detector gives a signal, the pinpointer helps to precisely locate the metal object in the ground. This not only saves time but also prevents valuable finds from being damaged. Especially in hard soils or deep holes, the use of a pinpointer is essential. Anyone who regularly goes prospecting knows how much effort it takes to find objects without a pinpointer. Therefore, every detectorist should buy a pinpointer to recover their finds faster and more safely.
Which Pinpointer should I buy? What should I consider?
There are several important factors to consider when buying a pinpointer. First, you should consider the environments in which you plan to prospect. If you frequently search on the beach or in water, a waterproof pinpointer is recommended. Sensitivity and depth detection are also crucial criteria. The best pinpointer should offer high precision and be easy to use. Buying an affordable pinpointer doesn't mean sacrificing quality – there are many models that offer excellent value for money. Also consider whether your pinpointer should have vibration and sound signals. Since the pinpointer will be used frequently, the operation and signals should be as comfortable as possible for you. A small LED light at the tip of the pinpointer can also be very important if you want to search in darker environments. Additionally, there are pinpointers like the Nokta AccuPOINT or Quest XPointer Max, which can distinguish iron from non-iron objects. Another point is the potential coupling option: a few pinpointers can be coupled with a metal detector or headphones of the same brand to unlock additional functions. The XP MI-6 for example, can be coupled with the XP Deus II so that the pinpointer's battery level is displayed on the detector's screen, the pinpointer's sensitivity can be adjusted, and the sounds can be emitted through the detector. The Nokta Accupoint also has the option to couple with metal detectors from the Simplex New Generation, the SCORE series, or the Nokta Legend.
Buy Branded Pinpointers
