Pin Pointers

I can give a great review for the 580. Very solidly built. Some people think it is too long, but I have no problem with it. Completely waterproof. It also has the proximity alert the same as the Garrett. I have no regrets in my purchase.
 
The Vibraprobe 580 is a mini PI detector. It will find targets in the ground deeper than an air test. It is very well built and at the end of the day just wash it off. The only down side is that being a PI it can interfere with your main detector. Especially multi frequency detectors. But pointing your coil away from the hole helps. A little noise in the headphones is better than a Garrett that is falsing in my book.

The Garrett can be super tuned so I can't really compare depth. I will say that the 580 is better than most in that department. There was a great write up on the 580 about three weeks ago on this forum.
