Testing out the Cheep Pinpointers. Are they any Good? How do they compare with expensive ones?

I ordered a couple different cheep pin-pointers. How good are they? Do they work? Let’s compare to the more pricy ones. Minelab Equinox 800 using to locate.

I appreciate that you didn’t immediately try and shun the two cheap ones right out of the gate. Any of the other reviews I’ve seen on these have just been talking about how great their $150 pinpoint is compared to these. Yeah, it should be. I like how you used the Minelab as the standard just to get a real comparison. Most unbiased review I’ve seen. Fair, to the point, and showing them in a real head to head. Good job!!

I got the GP and to tell the truth it's done more than I expected for 20 bucks 😎👍

I got a gp pointer yesterday mine detects metals and gold up to 5 inches away.. must have improved alot since this video. I wasn't expecting much from it after watching a few YouTube vids but its blown me away with how good it is

I bought the GP Pointer starting out. It's great and does the job just fine considering the target is usually already out of the hole. Unless you're detecting under water you probably don't need anything better. Even the pros could justify having one of these as a backup, which I think was the same conclusion you came to. In my tests it would give a detection on a target down to 0.05 grams, which I think should be the real benchmark that pointers are tested against.

The GP pointer (and most pointers if comes to it) auto balance for interference when you turn them on. Make sure you hold them away from metal until they turn on fully. The GP pointer was kind of helping you in that regard because you were holding it up to see the light come on. The other Chinese one, you always held it down to the ground so you could see the screen. It's possible that it had better sensitivity than you were allowing it.

I bought that cheap orange one 2 years ago and I still have it so that tells u something 👍found many coins and rings necklesses actually paid for it's self in two hours lol

[richardbillin]

Great test glad you took the chance never would have thought something that cheap would perform better than just okay

Appreciate an honest, real world review . I’m just starting out, and I’ve been wondering if these were any good ( the GP Pointer ), and now I know, so I will be ordering one .
Thanks !

great test work fam. loads of great info. keep at it. GOLD SQUAD OUT!!!

I have the GP for 4 years now and it's doing a great job! Absolutely worth it and amazingly low priced. Ordered a 2nd one for my son for only $ 16.

Thanks for the product review - Got the GP pointer

[jell-oputin]

They work and if your on a budget or new to the hobby it will definitely get you to your target. It’s 15-20 dollars so your not out much. Later on you can always save up and get a better quality one. Handed mine down to my cousin with a bounty hunter and it’s still going strong.

Nice vid.. good to see…had the gp but had to return.. being a newbie wasn’t spending loot for carrot.. bought a Shrxy for 28 or so.. sure it’s a whites knock off I believe…but two for five years and both still work.. not bad.. dig on people..

[ELCEV]

Bought one on Amazon before seeing your review, works good. $16.99 delivered to my door the next day.

[jamescullins]

You should use the other units first, for a better comparison and switch them for the next test. Glad you are doing this, helps me decide.

[raybrock]

I've used several over the years they work well can hit about 2 inches in soil. I have a pro pointer 2 i use now its better gets another inch and discriminates. Still use the g.p. as well.

[billdelaney]

Gold gold gold gold gold fever I can’t get that song out of my head if you hold a piece of metal on the shaft of the go pointer it will pick up deeper targets

[cruikshank]

I really appreciate your testing this. I hope I can find the GP pointer here in 2022. I picked up a used Detector for $30 so I hate to pay $100 for a pointer. I’m willing to pay up to $50 for one that will work and last me awhile. Thanks again. Dave in PA.

Funny that first target the minelab and gp lied saying there were 2 targets which the cheapo red one was right with1 target!😂

[camper]

Thanks. I bought one on Amazon recently called WAZWOY that looks identical to the GP model including the packaging. It also came with 2 batteries. Good to know that for $20 I got a fairly decent deal.

Inc the garret and most cheap pinpointers wire length interferes with pulsed detectors like minelabs etc minelab pointer is designed to not interfere with the coils weather on or off some resonate with the coil windings probably the same resonant wavelength. if you run a vlf detector any should be ok.
