SAKOBS Pinpointer Metal Detector Handheld - IP68 Waterproof, 360° Sensing, Sound & Vibe

SAKOBS Pinpointer Metal Detector is a compact, IP68 waterproof handheld pinpointer designed to zero in on buried metal targets with 360° sensing, sound and vibration alerts, and easy one-button operation.

Made as a dedicated locating tool to complement full-size metal detectors, this SAKOBS handheld pinpointer narrows the search area so you dig less and find more. It combines a 360-degree side scan, up to about 3.1 inches (under ideal conditions) of detection range, and selectable feedback modes so you can work effectively at the beach, in parks, or near riverbanks. The unit ships with a protective cover, carrying accessories, a 9V battery, and a user manual for fast setup.

How accurate is the SAKOBS pinpointer at finding small targets?

The SAKOBS pinpointer uses a 360-degree sensing tip to pinpoint the precise location of small metal objects after your main detector narrows the search area. Placement of the tip and slow sweeping motion give the best results close to the surface.

• Detection reach: up to approximately 3.1 inches under suitable conditions
• 360° side-scan tip locates edges and small targets
• Helpful for coins, rings, relic fragments, and property markers

Can I use this pinpointer in wet or sandy environments?

Yes — the SAKOBS pinpointer carries an IP68 waterproof rating, so it tolerates rain, wet sand, muddy conditions, and shallow water exposure. The rugged sealing and protective cover allow beach and river-edge detecting without worry.

• IP68 rated: suitable for shallow water and wet conditions
• Protective cap shields the tip from grit and abrasion
• Ideal for beach hunts, stream edges, and muddy fields

What feedback modes help me identify targets quickly?

This pinpointer offers sound alerts, vibration alerts, or both combined to suit different environments. Use sound outdoors, vibration in noisy areas or to stay discreet, and combined mode when you want the strongest notification.

• Clear audio tones with increasing pitch toward the target
• Strong vibration for silent or noisy conditions
• Combined mode amplifies feedback for confident target confirmation

How easy is it to operate and carry during long detecting sessions?

Operation is straightforward with a single-button interface that powers on, switches modes, and reduces interference. The lightweight body, textured grip, and included carrying accessories make it convenient to carry in a pouch or backpack for extended hunts.

• One-touch button operation for fast mode changes
• Interference reduction to lower false signals near metal
• Includes protective cover, carrying accessories, and 9V battery

Who is this for? Hobbyists, beachcombers, and field archaeologists who want a reliable, compact locating tool to pair with a full-size metal detector will benefit most from the SAKOBS pinpointer. It’s designed for anyone who needs faster target recovery—coin shooters, ring hunters, relic seekers, and land managers checking property markers—especially when working in wet or mixed-terrain conditions.
