    The XP MI-6 is a wireless-connected pinpointer designed for XP ICON, ICONX, Deus II, Deus, and ORX detector owners. It transmits audio directly to the detector's headphones, switches the detector to standby when activated, and displays a target-zoom graph on the remote control screen. Deus II and Deus users hunting trashy sites or relic fields benefit from the wireless link, no fumbling with a separate pinpointer speaker in the hole, and the detector's display shows MI-6 sensitivity and battery level in real time. The MI-6 is waterproof to 20 feet (6 meters), runs 90 hours per charge on a rechargeable lithium-polymer battery, and includes a lost-pinpointer recovery mode that sounds an alarm even if the unit has been switched off for weeks.

    What's Included with the XP MI-6 Pinpointer

    • XP MI-6 wireless pinpointer (12 kHz detection frequency, waterproof to 6 meters)
    • Rotating holster for belt or pack attachment
    • Lanyard with stainless ring
    • USB charging cable

    Why Deus II and Deus Owners Reach for the MI-6

    • Wireless audio to headphones eliminates the need to surface from the hole to hear the pinpointer, faster target recovery in iron-dense sites where every second counts.
    • Automatic standby mode on the detector prevents interference and battery drain, the Deus switches to standby when the MI-6 is activated, then returns to detect mode when the pinpointer is switched off.
    • Lost-pinpointer recovery mode locates a misplaced MI-6 even after weeks of being switched off, the detector's research mode triggers an alarm from the pinpointer, a safeguard in tall grass or brush.
    • 90-hour battery life and rechargeable lithium-polymer cell reduce the cost and hassle of disposable batteries over the detector's lifespan.
    • Waterproof to 20 feet (6 meters) for saltwater wading, river hunting, and rain, the sealed housing matches the Deus II's submersible capability. See our full range of waterproof pinpointers for other detector platforms.

    Wireless Control from the Deus II and Deus Remote

    The MI-6's wireless link to XP detectors delivers remote-control access to 50 sensitivity levels, adjustable audio tones, and two audio modes (pitch or pulse). When you switch on the MI-6, the Deus or Deus II remote automatically switches to the MI-6 display, showing a target-zoom graph, battery level, and current sensitivity setting. Sensitivity adjustments made on the detector's menu apply instantly to the pinpointer, no need to touch the MI-6 itself. The anti-interference system ensures the detector and pinpointer operate on separate channels, the Deus enters standby when the MI-6 is active, preventing cross-talk in high-trash environments where both units would otherwise compete.

    Waterproof Performance in Wet Sand and Shallow Water

    Saltwater Beach Hunting with the Deus II

    The MI-6's 20-foot waterproof rating allows full submersion in the surf zone. Deus II owners working wet sand and shallow water hear the pinpointer's audio through wireless headphones, no external speaker to muffle or fail in saltwater spray. The 12 kHz detection frequency provides stable operation on coin and jewelry targets in mineralized wet sand. The rotating holster clips to a belt or wetsuit strap for quick access when a target signal requires pinpointing.

    Relic Hunting in Iron-Dense Fields

    The 50-level sensitivity adjustment (accessed from the Deus or Deus II menu) lets you dial back the MI-6's response in iron-heavy sites where a hot pinpointer masks adjacent non-ferrous targets. The target-zoom graph on the Deus remote shows signal strength as you approach the target, a visual aid when working deep holes where the audio alone is ambiguous. The lost-pinpointer recovery mode is a practical safeguard in overgrown relic fields, activate research mode on the detector, and the MI-6 emits an alarm even if it has been off for weeks.

    Which XP detectors does the MI-6 pinpointer connect to wirelessly?

    The MI-6 pinpointer connects wirelessly to the XP ICON, ICONX, Deus II, Deus, and ORX detectors. The wireless link transmits the pinpointer's audio directly to the detector's headphones, displays a target-zoom graph on the remote control screen, and allows sensitivity adjustments from the detector's menu. The MI-6 can also operate as a standalone pinpointer without wireless connection, using its built-in speaker and three sensitivity levels.

    How deep is the MI-6 waterproof?

    The MI-6 is waterproof to 6 meters (20 feet). The sealed housing allows full submersion in saltwater surf zones, rivers, and freshwater lakes. The rechargeable lithium-polymer battery and USB charging port are protected by the waterproof seal, and the rotating holster is also submersible. The 20-foot rating matches the Deus II's submersible capability, making the MI-6 suitable for wading and shallow-water hunting.

    Answered by Richard T. · May 2026

    What is the lost-pinpointer recovery mode?

    The lost-pinpointer recovery mode allows you to locate a misplaced MI-6 even if it has been switched off for weeks. Activate research mode from the Deus II, Deus, or ORX menu, and the detector sends a wireless signal that triggers an alarm on the MI-6. The alarm sounds even when the pinpointer's battery is depleted or the unit has been off for an extended period. This feature is a safeguard in tall grass, brush, or overgrown relic fields where a dropped pinpointer is difficult to spot visually.

    Answered by Dan P. · May 2026

    How long does the MI-6 battery last per charge?

    The MI-6's rechargeable lithium-polymer battery provides up to 90 hours of use per charge. Actual runtime depends on sensitivity level, audio mode (pitch or pulse), and if the LED and vibrator are enabled. The detector's remote control displays the MI-6's battery level when the units are wirelessly linked, and the pinpointer charges via the included USB cable. A full charge takes approximately 3 hours.

    Answered by John W. · May 2026

    Can I adjust the MI-6 sensitivity from the Deus II remote?

    Yes, when the MI-6 is wirelessly linked to the Deus II, Deus, or ORX, you can adjust sensitivity from 1 to 50 using the detector's menu. The pinpointer's sensitivity changes instantly, and the remote control screen shows the current setting. In standalone mode (no wireless connection), the MI-6 offers three sensitivity levels adjusted by pressing the pinpointer's control button. The 50-level range is available only when linked to a compatible XP detector.

    Answered by Richard T. · May 2026

    What audio modes does the MI-6 offer?

    The MI-6 offers two audio modes: pitch and pulse. In pitch mode, the audio tone increases in frequency as the pinpointer approaches the target. In pulse mode, the audio emits rapid beeps that speed up near the target. You can select the audio mode from the Deus II, Deus, or ORX menu when the MI-6 is wirelessly linked, or by pressing the pinpointer's control button in standalone mode. Both modes are transmitted to the detector's headphones when the wireless link is active.

    Answered by Dan P. · May 2026

    Does the MI-6 interfere with the Deus II detector during use?

    No, the MI-6 includes an anti-interference system that prevents cross-talk with the Deus II, Deus, or ORX detector. When you switch on the MI-6, the detector automatically enters standby mode, pausing its detection cycle. When you switch off the MI-6, the detector returns to active detect mode. This system ensures the pinpointer and detector operate on separate channels, eliminating false signals in high-trash environments where both units would otherwise compete.

    Answered by John W. · May 2026

    What is the detection frequency of the MI-6?

    The MI-6 operates at 12 kHz, a mid-range frequency that provides balanced sensitivity to coin, jewelry, and relic targets. The 12 kHz frequency is stable in mineralized soil and wet sand, and the wireless link to the Deus II or Deus allows real-time sensitivity adjustment from the detector's menu. The MI-6's frequency is fixed and cannot be changed, unlike the Deus II's multi-frequency coils.

    Answered by John W. · May 2026

    Is the MI-6 suitable for saltwater beach hunting?

    Yes, the MI-6 is waterproof to 20 feet and operates stably in saltwater environments. Deus II and Deus owners working wet sand and shallow surf zones benefit from the wireless audio link, which eliminates the need for an external pinpointer speaker that can muffle or fail in saltwater spray. The 12 kHz frequency provides reliable detection of coin and jewelry targets in mineralized wet sand, and the rotating holster clips to a belt or wetsuit strap for quick access.
