The GP-Pointer is a type of handheld metal detector, specifically designed as a pinpointer for locating and pinpointing metal objects in various environments. Here are some key features and considerations related to the GP-Pointer Metal Detector:
1. **Design and Construction:**
- **Handheld Design:** The GP-Pointer is designed to be held in hand for precise metal object detection.
- **Compact and Lightweight:** It is usually compact and lightweight for easy portability and comfortable use.
2. **Detection Sensitivity:**
- **Adjustable Sensitivity:** The device typically offers adjustable sensitivity settings, allowing users to customize the level of detection based on the size and depth of the target.
3. **Detection Technology:**
- **Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Detection:** Capable of detecting both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
- **Pulse Induction (PI) Technology:** Some pinpointer models, including the GP-Pointer, may use pulse induction technology for enhanced sensitivity in various soil conditions.
4. **Waterproof Design:**
- **Waterproof Rating:** The "Waterproof" feature indicates that the pinpointer can be submerged in water, making it suitable for underwater metal detection, such as in rivers or shallow water.
5. **Alert System:**
- **Audio and/or Vibration Alerts:** Provides alerts through audio (beeping) and/or vibration when a metal object is detected.
6. **Built-in LED Light:**
- **Integrated LED Flashlight:** Some models may include a built-in LED flashlight for better visibility in low-light conditions or when searching in dark areas.
7. **Holster and Lanyard:**
- **Holster Attachment:** Often comes with a holster or a belt loop for convenient carrying.
- **Lanyard Attachment:** Some models may include a lanyard for additional security during use.
8. **Battery Life:**
- **Power Efficiency:** Typically powered by one or more batteries (such as 9V batteries). Consider the battery life and whether it meets your intended usage duration.
9. **User Interface:**
- **Simple Controls:** The device typically has simple controls, including power on/off, sensitivity adjustment, and possibly a button for activating additional features.
- **One-Button Operation:** Some models have a one-button operation for simplicity.
10. **Applications:**
- **Metal Detecting:** The primary application is for aiding metal detector users in locating and pinpointing buried or hidden metal objects.
11. **Construction Materials:**
- **Durable Housing:** Built with durable materials to withstand outdoor conditions and potential impacts.
12. **Additional Features:**
- **Lost Alarm:** Some pinpointers have a feature that emits an alarm if the device is left on and motionless for a certain period, preventing accidental battery drain.
13. **Compatibility:**
- **Use with Metal Detectors:** The GP-Pointer can be used in conjunction with larger metal detectors for a more efficient and precise search.
Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions and guidelines for accurate information on the device's specifications, usage, and maintenance. The GP-Pointer Metal Detector is suitable for various metal detecting applications, offering users a tool for more accurate and targeted searches.
Features: 1. Find evidence faster! Static detection (no motion required) speeds target recovery. 2.Proportional audible and vibrating alarms increase in intensity based on target's proximity to quickly pinpoint weapons shell casings, projectiles and crime scene evidence. 3..Automatically adjusts...Microprocessor circuitry ensures maximum sensitivity with no tuning necessary. 4..Pinpointing tip and 360° side scanning capability in one pinpointer. Scan with the side of the detector to quickly cover an area then use the tip to precisely pinpoint the target. 5. LED flashlight assists in low light recoveries. 6. Woven belt holster…included to secure CSI PRO-POINTER to standard size belts. 7.Utility usesSearch walls and tight spaces for hidden itemsfind metal pipes in walls or nails in drywall to locate studs...check wood for nails before cutting with expensive tools. 8. Scraping blade to sift through soil during target recovery.
