| Vibra Probe Pinpointer TREASURE PRODUCTS - The Vibra-Probe Pinpointer is a pulse induction, hand held electronic PinPointer that communicates with the user via vibration. Because it is a PI detector, it is excellent in black sand and wet salt sand as well as normal inland soils. The detectors range is approximately 1" on a US penny sized coin. Vibra-Probe is a very well built, beefy probe which turns itself on when pointed upward for one second, and off when pointed downward for one minute. Operating on one 9 volt battery, the Vibra-Probe 560 is supplied with a belt mountable sheath. |

Intermittent pulses on no target
Yesterday I used my 570 pretty hard - I pulled a LOT of tiny pieces of wire out of one hole. The probe started giving me two pulses and would do it if I held it in the air away from everything. I took the battery out and put it back in and changed the battery. I finally decided to quit for the day if I couldn't trust my probe (I'm spoiled already!)
I haven't turned it on since then but was wondering if anyone has had a similar issue with theirs. I'm hoping that when I turn it on again it will be miraculously fixed! Thanks!

I have the 560 model - and the only intermittent (wierd) thing that has happened off and on for the past year is that once in a while when I'm hunting for something it will give a weaker than usual vibration when close to the target and shut off. I'm not sure if this is because the battery was getting weak (I changed batteries both times).
I have not experienced what you are talking about....hope it's nothing serious...

My 570 and 250 will seem to carry on their own little conversation if they are too close to one another!

Yeah they can have quite a party when the 570 and the 250 are close together! That's not what was happening yesterday so I'm hoping it was just a transient issue.

I hope it is nothing. I had the 560 and really just did not use it much? The only issue I found that it would at times it would not read the object until I just about touched the item, Beale.

the V730 does that to me as well
I've had the same type of thing happen with my V730 ; don't use it much now, but need to start again because I'm not going to pay that kind of money to have it sitting in my bag.
Also found I have to turn off my Titan when I turn on the V730 because both of them go ape-wild when they are both on at the same time.
