MINELAB PRO-FIND 40 Waterproof Pinpointer Metal Detector — Tone ID, Adjustable Sensitivity, Built-in Flashlight

The MINELAB PRO-FIND 40 is a compact, fully waterproof pinpointing metal detector that gives experienced treasure hunters quick target location with tone ID, vibration alerts, adjustable sensitivity and a built-in flashlight.

Designed for detecting coins, relics and small buried finds, the PRO-FIND 40 is a hand-held pinpointer that speeds recovery after a signal from a full-size detector. Its waterproof housing and rugged build make it reliable on beaches, in rivers and in wet soil, while DIF technology reduces interference when used near an operating detector. The unit combines audio, vibration and visual cues to guide you precisely to the target so you spend less time probing and more time retrieving.

How does the PRO-FIND 40 help me locate targets faster?

The PRO-FIND 40 narrows the search area quickly by giving immediate audio and vibration feedback that intensifies as you approach metal. A small probe tip and sensitive electronics let you pinpoint small items within a few inches without repeated digging.

• Intensifying audio tones and vibration for precise approach.
• Probe-style tip reaches narrow holes and tight targets.
• Five sensitivity settings to balance depth and stability.
• Built-in flashlight illuminates small recovery areas.

Can I use this pinpointer in water or on wet sand?

Yes — the PRO-FIND 40 is fully waterproof so you can submerge it for beach hunting, river wading or probing wet ground without worry. The sealed housing prevents water ingress while maintaining performance in salt and freshwater environments.

• Full waterproof housing for submerged searching.
• Reliable performance in wet soil, shorelines, and streams.
• Corrosion-resistant materials suitable for coastal use.

What features reduce interference when used near a coil detector?

Detector Interference Free (DIF) technology significantly lowers the chance that the pinpointer's signal will upset a nearby metal detector. This makes it practical to work close to a parent machine during recovery without false signals or cross-talk.

• DIF technology minimizes interference with an operating detector.
• Adjustable sensitivity lets you fine-tune response near large targets.
• Compact form factor keeps the pinpointer out of the detector's magnetic field.

How does Ferroous Tone ID and adjustable sensitivity improve finds?

Ferroous Tone ID gives two distinct audio responses to help you distinguish iron or ferrous junk from nonferrous targets, reducing unnecessary digging. Five sensitivity levels let you prioritize deeper targets or a stable, quiet signal depending on soil conditions and nearby metal.

• Two ferroous tones separate iron from nonferrous responses.
• Five sensitivity steps for depth versus stability trade-offs.
• Use lower sensitivity in trashy sites; higher in clean, compact ground.

Who is this for? The MINELAB PRO-FIND 40 is aimed at experienced detectorists and serious hobbyists who need a rugged, waterproof pinpointer that works alongside a full-size detector. It’s especially useful for beach and freshwater hunting, field or park recovery, and for anyone who wants faster, more accurate target location with minimal digging. The included holster and lanyard keep the unit accessible during long searches, while the flashlight and tone ID features make it practical for varied conditions and target types.
