Pinpointer Air Tests


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

When researching pinpointers, I watch these folks doing air tests with the ruler laid out in front of it and they move the target toward the the tip by hand to get a distance reading. Now, your DD detector coils, and probably others, will detect the minerals in your hand/skin. Won't the pinpointers? Or is it not enough to throw off the reading of a target in these air tests done by hand?

No, pinpointers are not sensitive enough to detect your hand. Neither are most detectors running under 13 kHz. Nearly all multifrequency models are also not troubled in that manner.
