Thanks Jason. Your tip blew me away. 5 minutes later my Longruner had doubled it's reach. I felt like a surgeon doing exploratory surgery. The patient survived the operation, and I'm off to the fields. Owe you a beer buddy. Thanks again for the new tip. Pun intended. Lol
Oops forgot to tell you that any automotive parts store has o rings that will fit the G.P. Just remember to take the cap with you. Mine was missing also, but not anymore. 😊
Hank Hankenhunter that’s awesome! Glad I could help. Happy hunting bro 👍
You only have to use centrifugal force to move the sensor to the end. Hold the pointer up, and quickly whip it down like you do with a mercury thermometer. No need to take anything apart, and your literally done in a split second. This Only works on the GP.
The real tip is always in the comments! This worked great! My MD-2018 GP clone went from 1/4 to 2 inches with a couple flicks!
You was right 👍
Awesome man thanks!
What's to stop it slipping back again?
@@1442GlennLane good point, I personally would find the bottom of the sensor drill small hole through inject silicone or a plastic plug with sealant. But that's me I don't recommend it to anyone else
I have used a technique to increase pointer distance. Take the pointer and put the tip on a large metal object (car door for example) then with the pointer touching the door, turn it on. Now when you pull away from the door and back to it, it will usually start beeping 4-5 inches away. I do this sometimes before going out detecting. After a few ons and offs it seems to reset back to short distance. So you can "tune" it again on a shovel, in the field, if you remember. Can speed up item recovery time immensely! Like your tip too. Good straightforward video. Good luck out there!
Well no wonder why several of my GP Pointers of the same model were all reaching different depths and some performed better than others!! I did videos showing how each one varied and it miffed me. Now I know why. Thanks so much for this video! You are a genius!! You just got a new sub! 🤗
Thanks for this, super easy and noticeable difference while digging yesterday. Awesome
Sweet! I’m sooo glad I could help. Happy Diggin 👍
Same name
Great information thanks for sharing this I also have a video out on the GP that I did a few years back great discovery.
with all the banging around you do with your pinpointer whats going to keep it from sliding back to its original spot? can we glue it ?
so theres nothing connected to the sensor? its just a stationary sensor? I have 2 and of course would love to improve the sensitivity....Ive seen the rubber protection tips you can buy on ebay, what you think bout cutting tip of pointer off and JB weld the end and install a protective cap? i dont do water hunting so not worried bout waterproof...
If you read the descriptions or pay attention to the pictures on eBay very carefully they say the shaft of the pin pointer is fully waterproof not the whole thing very sneaky they are with the whole waterproof thing
This was literally a game changer! Thank you so much man! Went from barely half inch to over 3 inches!
Wow. That’s impressive.
It has started continuously beeping now! I can still tell when it detects something but not sure what’s happen to it! Any ideas or hacks would be greatly appreciated!
Excellent investigating!
Does the GP ground balance the same as the Garrett does?...by turning it on next to the ground...
Just out of curiosity, I wonder how good the results are after using this method and additionally doing the suoertune bit of metal on the side method. I got a GP, and will try it using both 👍
This doubled my orange GP's reach
Used the metal hooked part of a coat hanger, mostly straightened out.
Job done in 2 mins.
Thanks very much
Awesome!!
Thanks for sharing this Nice ideas..Stay connected..
Thanks for the info, my pointer was alerting just below an inch, checked it as you said and sure enough it had about an inch gap from the tip to the sensor, I adjusted it and k now it hits a quarter at approx 2 inches....thanks
Awesome! Glad I could help.
Gp pointer detects gold?gold nugget?Thank you!
Thank you for informations
hello. Ive just bought gp pointer and it has a rubber oring on the battery compartment cap, have a closer look at your one. Mine is surrounding the cap, its tight and can be missed, its black on the black cap near the far edge ot the thread (towards the grip part).
That’s good you got one that has it. I’ve got three of them and unfortunately for me they don’t have the rubber seal. Thanks so much for watching!
I discovered an easy fix, no need to take anything at all off the pinpointer. After using a flashlight I saw the coil was sitting over half inch back from the tip, logic told me that if the coil can move by pushing with a wire rod, it should also be able to move with light shock movement. I gently tapped a solid piece of wood with the tip end a few times and checked with a light again, the coil is now right at the tip and functions way better. Hope this helps people as a try before removing parts.
Darn companies cant get Quality control straight from the get go. you can always take some Loktite Epoxy and fill it into the button to seal it. as for the cap, email the company and tell them its missing and im sure they can send you a cap that has the seal on it.
It’s cheap enough that I’m not even gonna mess with it. I’m shopping around for a good one that’ll not interfere with the simplex.
@@DigginwithJason I bought a teknetics tek-point pulse induction Pinpointer thinking it would take care of the emi problem and no good either. Its going to boil down to using the Frequency Shift Button options first, if that doesn't work then resort to lowering sensitivity.one notch at a time, that's the advice in nokta Makro manual we got when be bought the machines page 10 of the manual under sensitivity,.that works the best for me, although I will say and attest to this and possibly do a video on this is the Whites TRX Bullseye has the least EMI so far and sometimes none whatsoever. Even the NOKTA POINTER gives EMI that's frustrating ,lol...
Worked like a charm, thanks so much!
How's pointer sir
Some of them already have the sensor pushed down and some have different sensors
How much
The on/off switch stopped working on reassembly. It's now in the bin. I'll stick to my Garrett and not bother with a cheap spare.😊
Good idea, however I would take the battery out first...juuussst in case😁
Jason, does this gp pointer detects microsdcards?
Surprisingly it does. I tried it on both my GP pointers and it works. I also tried it on my GP pointer 2 pinpointers and it did not work.
@@DigginwithJason it means the gp pointer which is in the video it detects the microsd cards?

Sub your channel greetings from Holland
Subbed you back. You guys find some really cool ww2 artifacts. Wish I could hunt there.
Got mine as far out as 7 inches by changing the electrolitic capacitor on the PCB from 450uf to a 1000uf, you could go even higher if you wanted 1500uf 2000uf etc
Fr?
So you took the whoke board out 😅
@@valiantgold442 I did yes
🤔
47 uf kondansator more distance
Which capacitor are you replacing? the 470uf electrolytic?
You have already done this hack on the orange pointer a couple of months back !
Yes. Actually this one is the first video, but I had such a big response and messages asking questions I made another video.
so, are you happy with that extra 1.5 inches?
If a girl is happy with an extra 1.5inches then a detectorist sure as hell will be
سلام قربان قیمت این دستگاه چند؟ میتوانی یکی برایم ارسال کنید تا مبلغش را پرداخت کنم ما در این کشور به آن دسترسی نداریم ✋❤️🙏
Diggen with Jason in the intro . Spelling mistake ?
Chris Williams that’s originally how I had it but it wouldn’t pull up in a channel search so I changed the E to and I and bam 💥 it worked. So my older videos have the intro with Diggen. Thanks for being so observant 😒. Just kidding bro. 😂😂 thanks for watching 👍👍
😂😂😂 just checked my gpointer and I am having 1 and half inch pickup so I won't bother trying to improve that . Must have been lucky one I had haha
Yes. I have a black one that is good. One out of three 🤷♂️ I bought a GP pointer 2 the other day and it actually works pretty good. Thinking about making a comparison video between the GP pointer and GP pointer 2.
Whats the black name? Psl
Pls
It's the same thing.

There is another hack you can do to increase its range. Turn on your pinpointer... take for example.. a cent or a dime... and place it against your pinpointer... almost at the same level of the button but on the plastic on the opposite side and just slide the coin against the plastic probe until you hear your pointer beeping... then readjust the coin back a little just enough to stop the beeping.. technically, the pinpointer will now be finetuned and will have its range slightly increased. for an effective mod, you'll need to stick a plastic rail or a slider and glue a coin or a metallic piece on the slider as a fine tuning adjustment.
+Jimmy Bérubé Lévesque thank you for your comment. I tried that Super Tune thing on this one , but since the sensor was not all the way to the tip it didn’t work.
Strange, but at no point did that hack ever work on mine.
Moving the sensor up definitely worked a treat though
@@TheGoldenCrust are you sure you did it right?
Nice, 😂
"This one is actually better than this one" represents terrible communication..
What was "this one" that's actually better than the GP Pointer?
It’s pretty clear what I said. Before I said what you quoted me on I said that “not every GP pointer works the same” then I said “ this one is actually better than this one” the communication is good, you’re just not a good listener.
لدي قطعة مشابها قمت باستبدال المكثف 100 uf, ووضعت بدلا منه 200 uf عالي الجودة وكانت النتيجة انه اصبح حساسا للمعادن لكن استهلاك الطاقا اصبح لدرجة جنونية 😁😁 المسافة تضاعفت لكنه اصبح مزعج لااستطيع حمل شيء معي من المعادن ربما بالنسبة لكم لن يكون مزعجا

How much
About 20 bucks
@@miguelfigueroa2819 I found these for as low as $12.99 and $13.99. I bought a few of the same GP Pointer models in different colors and they all vary. Some are way more sensitive and louder that others. I did videos showing how basically one could be a dud and another works better than another. They need better quality control in my opinion.
