Helpful also was a contrast setting of 40%, and brightness setting of auto-med or auto-high. I feel the Garmin Striker 7sv sounder did help me find fish with that setup. I caught 3 rainbows, and lost or released a half dozen more. The down imaging was excellent once the side imaging found likely locations.

Select a multi-purpose or cranking battery for the electronics, that is what they are designed for, whether its a standard lead-acid, AGM, or lithium.
I'm looking at the Dakota lithium and they have a 23ah for just over $200 that seems like it should last over 8 hours a day. The next size up is like $500 which is really out of my price range. How long would the 23ah battery last. From my research the livescope/106 combo is around 3amps.
My PB: Between 9-10 lbs. Favorite Bass: Smallmouth. Favorite Lake or River The Water. (Susquehanna River, and Salmon River). Posted May 6. In my experience Garmin and Hummingbird (more Garmin tho) are miles above Lowrance. My experience is with doing tons of research on the ones they have between $120-450.
You will need to get you a 32GB, Class 10, micro SD card (they will have a C on them with a 10 in it) or faster. Plug the micro SD in, turn the unit on it it automatically loads required data on it. Take the card out, plug it into the computer and Garmin Express will automatically check the update and register the unit.
Garmin TM, then Garmin electronics makes life easier to net work and customer service support. I always ran Lowrance but they are a different company today. If you are using in salt water research that, corrosion is a electronic killer.
Location Sunbury, Ohio. My PB: Between 4-5 lbs. Favorite Bass: Largemouth. Favorite Lake or River Hoover reservoir. Posted March 8, 2019. If you are using livescope anchored, the trolling motor location will be ok. If you are using it moving, or holding in the wind, you will want it on a pole.
This is the transponder that comes with the newer Garmin Echomap 73SV Chirp units (CV52HW-TM) The 12-pin transducer features high wide band CHIRP traditional sonar (150-240 kHz) and has a power rating of 250 W. The CHIRP ClearVü and CHIRP SideVü (455/800 kHz) elements have a power rating of 350 W each (700 W total).
The 73sv will add maps. If you generally fish one or two lakes, you can make your own and you can download community charts as well on the 7sv and that will be fine. Actually, the only thing the SV adds is Side-View. The CV and SV models both have maps on the Echomap, neither has maps built in on the Striker.
Garmin says typical power draw is 1A, max is 1.6A. If you run the battery down to 10% that's 9 AH, so 5-9 hours on the water. A 15 AH batter would be safer and isn't much more money. If you're going livescope, then I'd go straight to a 30 AH. Expand. No Live Scope for the Kayak.
