MinelabWaterproof Pinpointer Metal Detector for Experts with Tone ID & Adjustable Sensitivity (Built-in Flashlight, Holster & Lanyard Included) (PRO-FIND 35)

Amazing Product! Coming from a chineese cheaper model to this one. The range is far greater, its waterproof, you can dial in the sensitivity and go completely silent with only vibrations. Plus its rather cheap. I know you can buy 3 chineese ones for the prize of this. But it's 10 times bettee. No question. Buy it. Just do it.

Works as well as the garret. Easy to use but the on of button could do with being a little bigger.

Minelab Pro-Find 35. Waterproof, accurate, ferrous non-ferrous detection, adjustable sensitivity are all accurate in the field. This pinpointer is only beaten by the Bullseye TRX but that's a narrow margin. In real terms, both are excellent. The 35 has on many occasions directed me to tiny valuable artifacts any sane person would have given up on knee deep in the dirt. I run mine alongside my CTX3030 & Etrac & find pinpointers of this standard to be invaluable. Only tiny niggle is the Pro-Find35's LED could be a bit brighter, but again, in the field, it's not really an issue since I'm no nighthawk & if I was out in the night, I'd have my head torch with me anyway. A top tier pinpointer.Top-tip: The top cap, battery placement point, can be insanely hard to reopen due to the o-ring seal & tight thread ensuring waterproof operation. It has a vice-like grip. A small amount of vaseline on the thread each time you replace the battery, combats this without compromising the seal.

Nice piece of kit, as you would expect from Minelab. My only issue is that the speaker is located in the handle & when your gloves are muddy you block up the speaker & because of this you can't hear the signals.As usual can't fault Amazon uk, great service.

In short - very happy with it, we have two in our household, sad part is that they don’t want to update the product line and introduce a headphone friendly model like Garret does with their Z link pin pointers

Received my pointer on time put the battery into the product and the light just flickered when I pointed it at a metal object it turned off. I was about to return the product as faulty but I tried a new battery and it worked light bright and loud sound. So check the battery and happy hunting.

For the price i would expect more from Minelab. It’s nice to have the option of sensitivity settings but it’s hit and miss. Increase the sensitivity by just one and the first piece of metal it senses sets it off and it doesn’t stop beeping until it’s switched off. Decrease the sensitivity by just one and it struggles to locate the smaller objects. You literally have to touch the object to hear a beep. Most of the time it works fine but it really struggles with the small stuff and being over sensitive if you raise it’s sensitivity. It also occasionally beeps at random times when nowhere near a find. I thought this was down to a low battery so I swapped it for a new one. It still randomly beeps. Frustrating when you think you have a signal on a find but there’s nothing there. My old £35 pinpointer was faultless and only upgraded to this, thinking it would raise my game. The Minelab Pro Pinpointer 15 or 20 would have been a better option.

Does its job efficiently
