🚤 Humminbird 408390-1 NMEA2000 Black Box with Ethernet: Advanced Networking for Marine Electronics Review

Looks great as a paperweight. Does not read engine data. The company will not replace a defective product. Regarding the 30 day rule, I had 45 days. Almost 3,000 issued in the last 18 months. You won't see a dime for future purchases.

My setup; I have a HB 7, 10 and 12 G3N coil with nmea2k kit and ethernet switch. There is also an I-Pilot connection to my Ultrara motor and claws. Yamaha 150sho This box does exactly what it should. I get data from the engine as needed. Operating hours, fuel, temperature, speed. Yes, it doesn't get a header from the head unit.

What were my expectations when purchasing: 1) Collect data from my other NMEA 2K devices on the network, 2) Create a custom display on my HB box (similar to what is shown on pages 35-37 in the installation guide), 3 ) to be able to see navigation information on my remote sensor that is not connected to my console.
