Great for me - Marine Electronics

Installation was easy. Remember to measure twice. Once installed it looked great on my dashboard and configuration was easy as the instructions were step by step.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Wrinkled

Looks great, works great

Great for replacing a pressure gauge as I have refused to install a fish finder anywhere on our vintage boat. The only thing obviously bad is that once you read shallow water on the river it's too late. The sandbars are moving so much it's hard to tell until you get there. However, it was pretty frank to see how flat the whole river really is with this thing! Yes.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Great price

do not buy because of the water temperature sensor.

Wanted it to be great. I installed according to the instructions. At the second exit. The water temperature can no longer be read. (One of the main reasons we bought this model) Now it's installed and too hard to replace because I drilled a 2 and 1/16 inch hole in my dash. 😢You should buy something else, unfortunately. June 3, 2021 - stopped working completely. 10 months, caliber removed. Don't buy, we'll let you know how the company handles exchanges and if there's a guarantee.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Minor problems

Great - works - love the alert settings. However, the LCD can be a bit difficult to read with polarized sunglasses - be aware that you may need to tilt your head back or forward or raise your glasses in bright light - lens polarization can cause the screen to show large black dots . Installation was easy enough, although the instructions aren't very clear as to which wires (shield and ground) should be connected together at each connector. Once I figured that out, installation was pretty easy…

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Compatibility
