{"product":{"id":10879119950108,"title":"Groundtech IQ Pointer","body_html":"\u003cp\u003eThe Groundtech IQ is a pulse induction (PI) pinpointer engineered for the ground that defeats ordinary probes. Highly mineralized soil, black sand, and saltwater beaches all flatten the performance of standard VLF pinpointers. The IQ's PI circuit ignores those conditions and locks onto metal. Weighing just 7.5 ounces (214 grams) and fully submersible to 9.5 feet (3 meters) with IP68 waterproofing, it pulls targets out of the hole quickly and with pinpoint precision, making it the ideal recovery companion for any detector or 3D ground scanner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePulse Induction Core for Salt Water and Mineralized Ground\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost pinpointers use VLF technology, which is thrown off by ground mineralization and salt. They false, chatter, and lose depth exactly where serious hunting happens: the wet sand at the surf line, iron-rich dirt, and old mineralized sites. The IQ runs a 674 Hz pulse induction core that stays stable in those environments, so you keep full sensitivity where other probes give up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQuick Ground Balance and 6-Level Signal Bar\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit auto-calibrates every time it powers on, and a single short press of the power button re-balances it to current conditions in real time. The 360-degree detection tip scans in every direction, and the 6-level LED signal indicator climbs bottom to top as you close on the target; all six light when the tip is centered directly over it for true pinpoint accuracy. Three sensitivity levels (Low for indoors or highly mineralized and saltwater ground, Medium as the standard default, High for maximum reach) match the probe to the site, with a color-coded status icon so you always know your setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt for the Dive\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIP68 waterproofing rates the IQ Pointer for full submersion to 9.5 feet (3 meters). An internal Dive Lock prevents water pressure from triggering the buttons on deep dives. Choose audio, vibration, or combined alerts, switch to Silent (Ghost\/Stealth) mode for vibration-only night operations, and light up dark holes with the built-in flashlight. If left idle for 3 minutes, the Lost Alarm sounds and flashes so you never leave it behind in the dirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare and Safety\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNever unscrew the rear cap while the device is wet or submerged; water will enter and cause permanent damage. Before every dive, confirm the O-ring is clean, grease-free, and intact and the rear cap is fully tightened. Rinse with fresh tap water after every use in salt water or mud, avoid thinners and harsh chemicals, and store between -4°F and 122°F (-20°C and 50°C).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFactory Included Items:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGroundtech IQ Pinpointer with Holster\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProtective Cap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSealing Caps\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSecurity Lanyard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUSB-C Charging Cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUser Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eMain Unit\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTechnology: Pulse Induction (PI)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating frequency: 674 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDetection tip: 360-degree scanning area\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWaterproofing: IP68, submersible to 9.5 ft (3 m)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 7.5 oz (214 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDimensions: 9.5 x 1.8 in (24 cm x 4.5 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBattery: 1050 mAh rechargeable Li-Po\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCharging: USB-C, approx. 10 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStorage temperature: -4°F to 122°F (-20°C to 50°C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAlerts \u0026amp; Controls\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlert modes: audio, vibration, or combined, plus Silent (Ghost\/Stealth) vibration-only mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSensitivity: 3 levels (Low \/ Medium \/ High) with depth adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSignal indicator: 6-level LED bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eControls: Power\/Ground Balance button, M button (alert mode), S button (sensitivity), F button (flashlight and Ghost\/Stealth mode)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtras: built-in flashlight, Dive Lock, Lost Alarm (after 3 minutes idle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePairing your pinpointer with a deep-seeking system?
