This Minelab Manticore bundle adds a Minelab Pro-Find 40 pinpointer to the standard Manticore package. The Manticore tells you where a target is to within a few inches; the pinpointer finds it in the hole, which is the single accessory most Manticore buyers add at checkout anyway. Nothing is substituted from the factory box: you get exactly what ships with the standard Minelab Manticore, plus the pinpointer, at their combined price.
What's in the Bundle
- Minelab Manticore metal detector with M11 11 in round DD coil and coil skidplate
- ML 105 low-latency wireless headphones with case, audio cable and charging cable
- Magnetic USB charging cable and 5 screen protectors
- Getting started guide
- Minelab Pro-Find 40 pinpointer with belt holster and lanyard
- Free Serious Detecting field kit (added automatically at checkout, limit one per detector): finds bag, hand digger with holster, carry bag, shovel and gloves
Why the Pro-Find 40 Is the Right Pinpointer for a Manticore
The Minelab Pro-Find 40 is waterproof to 3 m (10 ft), so it goes wherever the Manticore's 5 m rating takes you: surf line, creek beds, flooded cellar holes. It has five sensitivity levels, a ferrous tone ID that tells a nail from a non-ferrous target before you pull it out of the wall of the hole, a lost alarm in case you set it down in tall grass, and DIF technology so it does not interfere with the Manticore's coil while it is switched off on your belt. It runs about 20 hours on a standard 9 V battery and carries its own 2-year Minelab warranty. If you already own a pinpointer, buy the standard Manticore and browse our pinpointers collection only when you need a spare.
About the Manticore Itself
The Manticore runs Minelab's Multi-IQ+ simultaneous multi-frequency engine (5, 10, 15, 20 and 40 kHz) with a 2D Target ID map that plots ferrous and conductive readings on separate axes, ten preset search modes across all-terrain, beach and goldfield use, and an IP68 rating to 5 m (16 ft). It weighs 1.3 kg (2.9 lbs), collapses to 24.8 in, and runs about 10 hours on its built-in battery. Our full write-up, including the settings we run for cellar holes, wet salt sand, gold and trashy parks, is on the standard Manticore page linked above; our Manticore coils guide covers the M8 and M15 options if you change coils later, and our Manticore vs Equinox 900 comparison is the place to start if you are deciding between the two.
