Garrett Pro-Pointer II Metal Detector Pinpointer, Black

This is the gold standard in pinpointers. I’ve been using these black ones for many years. Other manufacturers make great detectors, but their pinpointers that I’ve tried don’t compare to Garrett in simplicity, reliability, and quality. These are perfect for beginners and pros. You won’t be disappointed no matter what kind of detector you use.

I bought this pointer to replace my old Garrett pointer. I’ve had the old one for a lot of years. It still works, I’ve just worn the tip out due to how often I’ve used it. I also purchased another Garrett “carrot” pointer when I made this purchase. It also was to replace my old one. In all honesty, I prefer the black pointer better in most environments. That’s just personal preference, either one is great.

Used for pinpointing buried detected metal (targets) i.e. desired coins or other detectable items (nails, pull tabs, foil). I bought a Kumon $39.00 pointer to start with, although a good price point, the Garrett Pro-Pointer II is "spot-on" with minimal falsing and greater range. I use several detectors i.e., Garrett ACE 200, Tesoro Compadre, Bounty Hunter Lonestar Pro. You have to practice with all of your tools to "get the feel" of detecting. I revisited a local park where I live (early am) and detected a couple of $$ worth of misc. coins. I discriminated out pull tabs / bottle caps, and then "opened it up" to reject only iron. This pinpointer (Garrett) is very accurate-- about 3 inches + or more pointing straight down over a coin. When you dig up some soil, sand, I hold it sideways and spread it over the soil/sand. It beeps when finding something, vibrates/pulses when closer, then solid tone when right over target. (The Kuman is good as an entry level pinpointer - but you will soon advance to something better). My only crit is that it is black and hard to see if you drop it, and not optic yellow, or orange, like the waterproof Garret models. It features "lost" functions and beeps every few seconds if left on for awhile (but tone is not loud). GO FOR IT! PS - I returned to my back yard with it along with my Tesoro, pulled up about 12 old nails buried in my yard - probably from a late 70s add on to house. No coins, but it was nice, as on a beach, to get rid of junk. Sorry for long winded review - but that's my experience.

I purchased this to find an old property survey metal rod (60 years old). It did the trick. A really nice feature is the 'retuning.' As you get close to a larger metal object the detector seems to be beeping in all directions - you hold it in place and turn it off/on real quick and it retunes itself to help be more precise in direction. You can do this retuning multiple times. Product itself feels solid and came with battery ready to go. I'll probably use this to also locate some sprinkler heads in the spring that always seem to get covered over with grass/sod.

The Garrett PinPointer Pro II is really made with quality. It's easy on, easy off button works perfectly and the light is a nice addition to a much earlier Garrett pinpointer I used to have. This pinpointer is much more sensitive than my old Garrett and begins to detect metal about 3 or 4 inches away from the tip. On larger metal objects the signal goes from a fast beep to a solid signal slightly before actually touching the target. Items about the size/mass of a paper clip need to be closer. As far as selecting this pinpointer over the AT model, my number one concern was the Orange color of the AT. I just didn't like the orange color. And it was going to cost 15 bucks more for the AT though its totally waterproof and has a few more adjustments/features. If you can get past the orange color, the AT is probably the better buy but the black Pro II is going to suit me just fine.

Works great... using it to check Duck meat before eating....

I'm new to metal detecting. Only about 150 hours boots on the ground. I bought a cheap coil style metal detector. It was made in China garbage. Its always glitching out and/or freezing...it was a 70$ detector. I got what I paid for. But this was the reason for me wanting a good brand name reliable pinpointer. Basically, so I would know when my coil detector is glitching out, And when it's just demonstrating it's piss poor design and quality. I first tried a 27$ pinpointer. But it was rechargable. And i dont want rechargable. But I got to use it try it, Before, and while, i had, this garret pinpointer. Before I returned the 27$ one at least. But it allowed me to compare. Honestly. I liked how the cheap one had a sensitivity button. This garret has no sensitivity adjustment. Wich... may not be needed. I'm not the most experienced. The garret just has 1 button that does everything. I dont mind that... but I would have liked an option to turn the little light off. If it's daytime. I really dont need that light draining battery. The scraper blade there is great for leveling and searching through small piles of tailings. A pinpointer is definatly a must have in any metal detectors toolkit. Before I got the pinpointer I would dig a hole like 1 foot wide. But not being able to pinpoint. I was never really sure exactly where to dig. or whatever.

works great

Absolutely brilliant 2nd gen to the best pinpointer around.. Brought this to replace my 1st gen original garrett pro pointer because of the old on off button was the only flaw replacing 2 & there a right bugger to solder in & get back together 😡 Anyway I digress 😏 the v2 is a little heavier but feels night & day better with the improved on off button I was going to buy the carrot 🥕 but my friend has it & to much messing in different settings & it’s much thinner plastic to the fact it’s transparent when lights on 😳 This is on off PERFECT 👍 solid build like the first but with the carrot button 👌

Garrett è sicuramente un azienda seria e questo prodotto non fa altro che confermare quanto detto. Il pro pointer II è robusto e ben funzionante. Lo si può tarare per terreni ferrosi al fine di evitare falsi allarmi,l'unica pecca rilevata è che non si può escludere la cicalina che a lungo andare può dare fastidio. Comunque sono contento dell'acquisto e mi sento di consigliarlo!!!!

スイッチが軽く押せるので操作感が良いです。

J'ai acheté ce détecteur à main sur recommandation des grands sites anglo-saxons de détection, pour compléter la poêle à frire que j'ai acheté en même temps et je ne le regrette nullement, bien au contraire. Il me permet de trouver les objets enfouis plus rapidement. Je m'en sers également pour détecter les clous et les fils dans les murs et ça fonctionne parfaitement.
