Here are a couple of shots of my first and second pro pointer.
You can see how much wear and tear I put on the ends. On my
first I wore the end off over an inch from using it in the sand
and dirt. It's no longer works and expired after 2 years, not
because of the tip but because I set it down in some very wet
grass. Water got through the speaker hole and the on off
switch eventually and it died. Warrenty was up so I just got another.
The reason I like the propointer so much is because it is lite and
it will seek out the tiny earring studs for me with ease, just lay it
on it side and sift through the sand. I like this pointer so much
I will most likely end up with a third. What I would really like to see
added to the pointer is a high ridge on top to sift the sand better
and a place to attach a strap so I can wrap it around my wrist with
out having to lay it down in the wet grass. These pointers are so good
the only time I use my dx-1 now is when the battery goes dead out in the field. :grin:
Thanks
