Advice on pinpopinter

[edteach]

I want to buy a pin pointer. I don't detect every day so I don't think I should spend 100 bucks on a top notch one. Any suggestions?

I have two of those old Kellyco ones that came with a detector. Do not like them, long and awkward and have to set the threshold (PITA). So I never used them but a couple times.

Then I saw an ad for the Tek-Point (same thing as F-Pulse) and you can probably find a couple posts I made about how I like it. But it's like $120. Now I use it always, even before digging to get the exact spot.

My two cents cryptocurrency (not worth much), if you are thinking you don't need a good one, you probably don't need one at all. Probably just a waste of time to pull the thing out to use because the cheap ones don't do much.

Thanks. I bought a Tec point on ebay for 75 shipped. I checked and there does not seem to be chinese knockoffs of it like the Garrett. I also like the double AA batteries and the reviews on it are very good. Higher then the Garrett.

My recommendation would be above your budget but the initials are TRX just in case you wish to gets something that works very well.

You scored! I've used mine around brush where a regular coil won't reach or to isolate a target. Actually had to drop the sensitivity. Maybe i shouldn't give out my secrets. LOL
