DetectorPro Pinpointers

The DetectorPro UniProbe is a set of metal detecting headphones with a pulse induction probe on a cable: flip the toggle on the headset to hear the probe, and flip it back to hear your detector. Versions fit XP, Nokta, Minelab and Garrett detectors. The probe and cable are waterproof; the headphones are not. Built in the USA.

How the DetectorPro UniProbe Works

The UniProbe puts a pinpointer into your headphones. A pulse induction probe hangs on a cable from the headset, and one toggle switch on the headset decides what you hear: the probe only, or your detector only. There are no probe buttons to push, no waiting for the probe to switch on, and no moving a headphone to the side between the swing and the dig. The probe sounds only in your ears, so nobody nearby hears it beeping.

DetectorPro describes the probe as a small pulse induction motion detector that is constantly retuning, built for harsh conditions such as heavily mineralized dirt, where VLF probes have difficulty. DetectorPro quotes 2 to 4 inches as common on coin-size targets and more on larger ones, so most of the time you hear the target as soon as you open the plug.

Which UniProbe Version Fits Your Detector?

The UniProbe connects to your detector through its own plug, so choose the version that matches your machine before you order. We offer it for the XP DEUS II and DEUS, Nokta detectors, the Minelab EQUINOX, the Minelab CTX 3030, the Garrett AT series (2-pin) and a standard 1/4 inch stereo plug. DetectorPro designs the UniProbe to work with all major brand metal detectors.

Where the UniProbe Works, and Its Limits

Heavily worked sites where you dig target after target are where the UniProbe earns its place: at an old farmstead, for example, where taking headphones off and on for every recovery slows you down. The probe and cable can go fully into salt or fresh water, but the headphones are not waterproof, so keep the headset dry and out of the surf. If you want a cordless handheld probe instead, compare the models on our pinpointers page, where the table lists each model's water rating and wireless options.

Is the DetectorPro UniProbe waterproof?

The DetectorPro UniProbe is waterproof in part: the probe and its cable can go fully into salt or fresh water, but the headphones are not waterproof. Keep the headset dry and out of the surf when you probe a wet hole or a creek bank.

For a cordless pinpointer that goes fully under water, compare the water ratings on our pinpointers page.

How does the toggle switch on the UniProbe work?

The toggle switch on the UniProbe headset chooses what you hear. Flip it one way to hear only the probe, and flip it back to hear only your detector. There are no probe buttons to push and no waiting for the probe to switch on, and the probe sounds only in your headphones, so nobody nearby hears it.

Learn the switch before your first hunt. See all pinpointers for handheld models.
