4.0 out of 5 stars Overall not bad but the interference from my main detector is quite annoying
UPDATE: I informed customer service of the problems I was experiencing and they have been nothing but helpful. Always love to see a company that owns up to it's mistakes and doesn't try to just sweep them (and you) under the rug!!
The Good:
-The build quality of this pinpointer is exceptional
-Easy to use, single button operation
-Seems fairly water resistant (good seal on battery compartment
-Comes with belt holster so you feel like Indiana Jones whenever you whip it out
The Bad:
-Very sensitive to the signals put out by my main metal detector. If my main detector is within 5 feet of the pinpointer, the pinpointer will go crazy and register false positives non-stop. It is annoying to have to stop and place my main detector far away from the digging spot or turn it off every time I wish to use the pinpointer. Not sure if this is just something you have to do with all pinpointers no matter what but it's definitely an annoyance with this one.
-Wish it were a little more accurate in terms of the actual pinpointing. It definitely picks up the objects well/is sensitive enough for small things, but often times it's hard to tell if the object is below or beside the device.
