Ask anyone, I was one who didn't believe the hype, and surely couldn't understand the difference between the Propinter and my V4 automax PP. In my mind they all worked the same, and couldn't understand why so many were so adamant about their
propointers.
After using my new PP compliments of Vexhold I can honestly say that they are like night and day. My v4 would alert me when I was close to metal, but the propointer PINPOINTS the exact location of the target in the hole.
With this propointer I can find a target within seconds and be on to the next target. There is no guessing involved. The Propointer starts out with a slow beep and increases the speed of the beeps until it is a constant sound, making it simple to figure out if the target is in the hole, or in the plug.
ANother thing I love about it is the light, it helps see when it's getting darker (obviously) but it is another tool in the arsenal.
I am a believer, and would never have known the difference if I hadn't gotten the PROpointer as a gift.
It's called a PROpointer for a reason.... Get one and take your detecting to the next level...guaranteed.
