Super for pinpointing: could use a couple of tweaks.
Saves loads of time by enabling you to hone-in (to "pin-point") where in a plug the treasure is located. Coins tend to take on the color of the earth surrounding them with the passing of years, & thus the eye cannot readily see them at times. This has an excellent & variable range, and can even help narrow down where the item is BEFORE digging, & thus it also reduces the plug size. Very sturdy construction. A rechargeable 9v battery from ebay has lasted a very long time: I have yet needed to recharge it after some months! A couple issues that should be addressed by Garrett in future models: it would be nice if you could choose any combination of light+sound+vibrate, and be able to adjust the volume. I have loads of black electrical tape over the speaker area but it is still too loud. The light is always on & cannot be controlled. It has a 'vibrate-only' mode, but I do not care for it. The only other mode is "sound+vibrate," so there is no way to eliminate the vibrator (which is probably a power-hog). The wires to the switch prevent you from being able to pull out the internal circuit board, so one could add a volume control, and/or a vibrator / light on-off switch, etc. As far as doing its job as a pin-pointer however, it is hard to imagine something better than this. Overall: super!
