Pin pointer recommendation!!

I am looking to purchase a new pin pointer and I dont want to by one that is going to break in a month! I have narrowed it down to the Garret pro pointer or the Vibra probe. if anyone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated!! Also do they make a probe that hooks up to the T2 like the sun ray ones that are made for whites detectors?
 
It has to be the Propointer its the No1 pinpointer in the UK
 
One more for the Garrett PP
 
ProPointer and it's slightly impervious to water up to the speaker 's little hole. Seen on Garrett videos where they have siliconed it and sealed it and were using it under water in a creek too to pinpoint. Also has a white light on it for evening hunting when dark out.
 
Garrett Pro Pointer. Don't waste your money on anything else. I bought a second one for a backup, because I won't hunt without one.

WOW! I guess Id be a moron not to get the infamous propointer! lol Thanks alot guys! This is why I love this forum! If your unsure about something you can just ask and get plenty of great advice from people with experience. not some sales man just trying to get you to buy anything that makes him money! I am excited to get the propointer now! Everyone loves it so much I cant wait to see how much it helps me in the field! Thanks again for all the replies!

Thanx everyone for all the feedback! My garret pro pointer arrived today and I am more then excited to get out in the field and put my new weapon to use! lol I have been using my fisher F point or whatever it is! It came with my f2 for free and I must say Im prob better off without it! Sometimes the coin will be touching the thing and it still doesnt beep!!! Im going to love my new propointer baby!!! Thanks again everyone!
 
Justin, if the battery is good and the sensitivity adjustment is correct the Fisher pointer works as well or better than the Garrett. One must see it for what it is though. It is a close proximity detector. It does not have the range of a ProPointer expecting it to is a sure formula for disappointment. On the same target the Garrett will indicate general location over a range of a couple inches. The Fisher will indicate exact position within a fraction of an inch. It is really different not worse. It is like a hatchet and a hunting knife. You can cut wood with a knife but the hatchet is far better at that job, if you want to carve the wood, use the knife for better results. Is one better than the other? In a specific task, of course, but not always.
I've worn the tip off my Fisher twice and my Garrett has some scars. I carry both and use what I want depending on situation and need.
