Ok ive found out this Pin Pointer is 100% waterproof! Its Ip67 standard...meaning its been tested at 1 meter for 40 min.It will be the 1st on the market of its kind . I will post the actual lab results when I receive them from the company.This should be a real winner guys.

I was not given a price yet,just told it will be cheaper or the same as garrets pin pointer.As i get more info i will let everyone know.

I was informed today there may be an additional week or 2 before i have Makro's new pointer.They were un-happy with the battery door seal,and are changing it.The fact they are getting it right before they try making a ton of money says alot.Give us a waterproof /Pro pointer or better quality tool.And thats what they have set out to do.So a little more patience and it will be here for the review.

So whats the big deal? I have been looking into pinpointers and there is the 580 propointer that is raited to 100 feet. Being a diver I am more interested in this. Again whats all the hype about? or is it just a new toy people are after?

i have the 100 ft pin pointer..its very very weak compared to the pro pointers.Thats why everyone has been voiding the warranties trying to water proof pro pointers.Us guys river and creek detecting sometimes and land detecting alot can use the same pointer with this.Its alot smaller than my vibra probe .And my vibra probe has a hard time finding something unless its almost touching it.This can get 2 or 3 inches away with adjustable sens.For diving you need just what you have.For heavy use and abuse we need something like this.

In theory this pin pointer ticks most of the boxes that detectorist require,but as its a totally brand new probe it does not as yet tick my longevity box and to me that is vital,have never bought any new item either detecting or non detecting related till a minimum of 9-12months usually the later.

Please note that i am not knocking this item,just being realistic before going out and buying one and then starting too see some form of a problem appearing,its been well thought out and should be reliable,it does come with 2 years piece of mind which is the norm for most of these types of probes.

As they say time will tell.

Windy City Detector Sales has a post about this machine in the Detector Accessories for sale forum. Ron is a Good guy to do business with.

This is the case with any new product.But makros reputation is a good one.They have been in Bussiness for 10 plus years.They also do some work with Nokta.And the Nokta pinpointer I have already outlasted my pro pointer that started falsing within 2 weeks.Its the best Ive used thus far.Lets hope this is as good as the rest of ther stuff,if so we will be golden.It just doesn't make sense to me to make a pinpointer NOT water proof.They should all be.Between the wet grass and just washing it they get wet.I detect in the creeks,I need a better waterproof pointer than the Vibra probe Ive been limited too.Fingers crossed this will be a winner.

that changes the site to English. Made in Turkey? Hope you won't be buying one from ISIS in a couple of weeks.

Made in Turkey and the Isis crap, that's what concerns me. These detectors and the pin pointer seem to be just what the doctor ordered. So is Viagra. But you could go blind.
