  • I took the Nokta Accupoint out for a real hunt and compared it to my MI6 and Carrot pin-pointers. The Accupoint did really well but I think I need a little more time to make my mind up. What do you think about it?

    I have the Nokta, carrot, and the MI 6 and the MI 6 is by far the deepest, and the carrot holds up the best. Only had the Nokta a few weeks, so we'll be getting it out trying it out more.

    Used a ole Garrett pin pointer for at least 30 yrs was thinking about getting a waterproof one was in ankle deep water one day and reached for the ole Garrett and it wasn’t there turned around and it was laying in the water about 10 feet back never worked right after that so now I own a Nokta I have been happy with it how deep do you really want a pin pointer to go😊

    My mi4 has bit the dust, ive seen some other youtubers have issues with the mi4 too
    But do I ever love the pitch tones better than the beeping, even putting the mi4 on beep mode its still less annoying than other pointers
    Since I'm planning to get a deus one next spring, I'm thinking I'll replace my mi4 with a mi6
    I was considering the new nokta 'nanna' but it dosnt seem so special now that ive seen a few videos
    I'm basically going to dig everything if I pop a plug, so I dont need a ferreous tone

    I’ve been looking for a new pointer to replace my slowly dying whites trx. Sucks they are no longer in production, I hoped garrett would have continued producing them after buying whites but not looking like it. I have a garrett carrot but I dunno just can’t bond with it, like the trx. So I’ve been checking out the accupoint. Sucks it doesn’t pair with the manticore. The MI6 looks cool! ..Decisions decisions

    I have common age related hearing loss. As a result I have trouble hearing the MI pinpointers especially in noisy environments. I hear the Nokta best. I like the menu screen and especially the battery indicator since I am a casual hunter only hunting perhaps once a week and can never remember all of the 'button sequences' on most pinpointers. Thanks for the informative video!

      if it holds up better than I can see myself using more than the others. I've been using it a lot and the slight difference in sensitivity isn't enough to put it away. I'm actually really enjoying it so far.

    @sandman4224 8 місяців тому +1

    Been using a carrot for years and get out 150+ times per year. Great sensitivity but the nose wears off and the button will stick. MI6 would be my second choice but have no experience and the banana seems weak although it has more functions.

      Its not that much difference (sensitivity) than the others. If you have a Deus then I would say get the MI6 but if not, then the Banana has some appeal over the others.

    I have problems hearing my MI6 as standalone. When paired it is ok.
    Plan to have Accupoint as standalone instead.
    I use both detector and pinpoint to find during the dig so standalone seems better instead of paired....
