What is a pinpointer actually for?

A pinpointer helps check the sides of a target hole or excavated soil after a full-size detector has located a signal. Recovery time varies.

Can I use it instead of a metal detector?

No, and we'd rather say so plainly. A pinpointer has a very short range by design — a few centimetres. It will not sweep a field or a beach for you. It is a recovery tool that works alongside a detector, not a replacement for one.

Will it work with my detector?

Yes. A pinpointer is completely independent — it has its own battery and its own speaker, and it doesn't plug into anything. It works with any detector, ours or anyone else's.

Can it get wet?

Check the individual model’s water-use limits. A waterproof search coil does not make the control box waterproof. Keep control boxes dry; do not submerge a pinpointer unless its supplied manual explicitly permits it.

Are batteries included?

No — batteries are not included. Each of our pinpointers takes one 9V battery, the same kind a smoke alarm uses, and any supermarket sells them.

Why does it beep when there's nothing there?

Nearby metal or ground conditions can affect the signal. Switch on and retune as instructed in the supplied manual. Contact us if unexpected alerts continue.

Can I return it?

Request a return within 30 days of delivery by emailing contact@terravynor.com. We provide a prepaid label. See our Return & Refund Policy for conditions and your statutory cancellation rights.

A pinpointer earns its keep once you have something telling you where to dig. Here are the six we sell, described honestly.
