My 1st Pro-pointer ll . I have not tried it, but i KNOW it's the best out there. Honestly, i'm 57 and out on disability with spine issues and i think its going to be worse and disabled. I wanted this because its the best and im hoping to detect while i can AND it really doesn't really lose value so when i need to sell my stuff because of health...my wife will get decent money.

I bought this to make it easier to locate an object. It is very durable and waterproof. Shortly before my daughter graduated college, she told me that one of her friends had lost his new class ring in the lake. I asked if he knew about where and she said that he had dropped it by the dock. So I told her that I would go and see if I could find it since I have scuba gear and a metal detector. I arrived and he pointed to an area about 100 feet x 100 feet and said "it's somewhere out there". Well, I was already there. The visibility was zero and the bottom was soft mud. I took my Garrett pro-pointer and started a grid pattern running the pointer along the bottom in about 10 feet of water. I had done the pattern right to left and forward and back to no avail and was almost out of air. I told him that I was going to do a final X pattern across the area and that was it. About halfway through the first pass I got a signal. I stuck my hand down in the mud and low and behold it was the ring. I came up and held my hand up in the air with the ring on my finger. Then I told him that I wasn't turning it over to him until we were on dry ground. He was so happy he didn't have to tell his parents that he brought me a thank you gift the next day. Way to go Garrett Pro-Pointer! You make things so much better with this hobby!

If you're in search of a reliable, weather-resistant metal detector, the Pro-Pointer II Pinpointing Metal Detector is an exceptional choice. This device, operating at a frequency of 12kHz, is designed with patented Proportional Audio/Vibration technology. This unique feature increases in intensity as you approach your target, providing a more precise and efficient treasure hunting experience.
The Pro-Pointer II stands out for its robust water and dust protection, meeting the stringent IEC 60529 IP 66 standards. While only the tip can be submerged, the unit can be safely operated in the rain or rinsed under running water, making it a versatile tool for various weather conditions. However, it's important to avoid submerging the device beyond the power switch.
One of the standout features of this metal detector is the Lost Pinpointer Alarm. If the device remains on for 5 minutes without a button press, it will start emitting progressively faster warning chirps for 60 minutes. This feature ensures you never misplace your valuable tool during your exploration.
The Pro-Pointer II also boasts an Auto-Off feature, which powers off the device automatically after one hour of warning chirps. This energy-saving feature helps prolong the life of the included 9V battery.
The device's Faster Retuning Capability is another highlight. This feature allows for quick on/off cycles, enabling the user to swiftly tune out the detection of saltwater, wet sand, or highly mineralized ground. This retuning capability helps to shrink the detection field to precisely pinpoint large targets, tune out mineralized ground or wet beach sand, gauge target size/distance, identify edges of large targets, and pinpoint multiple targets versus one large target signal.
Additional features of the Pro-Pointer II include automatic tuning and a large power button that's easy to operate even with gloves on. The device also comes with a woven web belt holster for convenient carrying during your treasure hunting adventures. With the Pro-Pointer II Pinpointing Metal Detector, you're equipped with a powerful, precise, and durable tool for all your metal detecting needs.
