tried it with my infinium with the large mono, no issues. start up time is fine, quicker than the profind which sometimes take a moment or two to GB, then beep when it is ready, and probably a second or two quicker than the x-pointer. s a pin-pointer and the operator along with his detector, need to put in some effort. The menu system is pretty much set and forget in my opinion.cant see why you would need to continue to enter the menu.? Once its set, use it, dont abuse it. Great for the big deep ones if your pin-pointing skills are lacking. Tho i feel there not really needed to look for small gold nuggets.time spent stuffing around in your tailing's is down time, use the old ways and move on. :lol: :lol:Īs for playing up with PI detectors.above in my earlier post. Its a pin-pointer.ya gotta let the detector do some work. The other two settings weren't to bad, but having used it from the time i got it, im happy to leave it on sens 1. To chatty and the depth was actually worse.bit like over-gaining a VLF. Sens 4 was way to high.in air it blows you away.on the ground it fails due to mineralization. Instant GB and away it go's.Īfter putting the youtube up for the sens/ got the better of me and i just had to fiddle with it. Having only come from using the earlier Whites Bullseyes, the start up time gives me no hassle.pull it out, place it on the ground and hit the go button. On sensitivity setting 4, it was running on the ragged edge, so give or take a couple of mm on these figures. Here's some figures for the TRX added in. So if you are holding the TRX at an angle into a hole, the TRX may sound off on targets near the top, side or simultaneously from the bottom of the hole, or from a target in the spoil already excavated from the hole.įalsing from pushing the TRX tip into the soil isn't as prevalent or an issue at all compared to on the Profind/Propointer, probably due to the fact that the sensor is not solidly expoxied into the casing, much like on the X-pointer. I detect probably every second night, so I tend to go through a fair few.Īnother quirk with this pinpointer, is that TRX not only registers a signal at the tip, but also from the LED light of the top of the shaft, down to the "S" on the Bullseye inscription. Quite frankly, I never usually notice how long a set of batteries will last, I just carry spares with me and change them out when required. Battery longevity will always vary between other users, regardless of using AA or 9v, some el cheapos I have found are great, whilst others not so great, even some of the known brands haven't been too flash. Sometimes I use cheap packets of AA's, other times I will use rechargeables, pretty much whatever is on hand. The battery performance will always vary, depending on brand used, type of battery, and capacity. It is also hard to judge how deep to dig initially on some deeper targets, as depth meters aren't exactly accurate when at their effective limit - some targets will barely register in pinpoint mode (VCO all-metal). I know some of the plugs I have dug for pre-decimals have often not been deep enough, and they were well beyond 6", all depends on the site and soil cover. If the plug isn't deep/wide enough, and the coin is still out of effective range of most pinpointers, then the TRX's depth capability is very handy, and can save scratching the coin if the hole needs to be excavated further. Once you get a rough location in the hole, then you can just rachet it back for more accurate pinpointing and minus any instability. Yes it can become unstable at higher sensitivity levels, but despite that, it can be useful both for checking near surface targets, and locating deeper in-hole targets. The TRX definitely has a depth advantage over all other pinpointers I've used. Iv not adjusted mine because im pleased with its sensitivity as it is out the box.
#PROFIND 15 BEEP WHEN SWITIHING ON HOW TO#
Late edit to add the youtube link for how to adjust the sensitivity setting. Good for very large species.not much chop on the small ones for obvious reasons. ProspectorPete, i use the TRX on some of my species that show gold to see just how much is hidden from using the ratchet feature and ratcheting it right down, im able to trace around the specie and have the pin pointer sound off in areas that show no gold. Trust me, the TRX has plenty of volume even when you have your hand over the speaker.yet i read on some forums, theres not enough volume and some are thinking of taking out the water proof membrane from the speaker insert.? 8) One thing to note when watching the vid is.the loudness of each pin pointer. This is just one of the youtube vids you'll find on the comparisons between the Garret/Minelab and Whites pointers.
