[@razorbak6783]

How do you like the livescope part of this system? I found this unit on sale with a livescope bundle and was going to buy it tomorrow but the livscope screen he just showed really looks like crap. The livescope screen he just showed looked like the old round flasher type screens from the 70's If that's the way it's going to look then I'm not buying this one. Maybe that's the difference between the LVS32 and the LVS34 that's 500.00 more.

[@thecentralscrutinizerr]

They're currently $1200 at Garmin including the UHD sensors (side and traditional). Not bad for a 9 inch display which includes all US Coastal maps pre-installed. As you get older, bigger is certainly better.

[@AquaLifestyle]

These units are a great value with included cartography and transducers. I know my older eyes appreciate a bigger screen.

[@big1dog23]

The last chartploterr/sonar I had was on a circa 2015 28" Grady Sailfish and it was so much less intuitive and far fewer features than the 5" UHD that I must say I'm impressed. For $300 it's as easy to use as google maps. I'm not going to need ocean depth sonar features for my 17' Whaler. It's amazing how the technology has improved while the price has come down. A larger screen with touch screen features would be nice, but is overkill for Columbia and Willamette River duck hunting and fishing.

[@day-cinvacuums5909]

This is great video that covers the whole unit. As I grow with my new Garmin I'm appreciative of the many features. I just want to learn the basis and be able to get a few years out of it.

[@Outdoorsyshoresy]

I’d like to see an aluminum tilt mounting bracket versus the plastic. Do you know if Garmin has an option for purchasing aluminum brackets?

[@AquaLifestyle]

I believe at this point Garmin does not offer a metal (stainless steel) bracket for their UHD transom transducers. But they may come out with one in the near future. They offered stainless mounts for some of their previous all in one transom transducers after only initially offering plastic versions. That said, the new UHD transducers being smaller, shorter and lighter transducers put less strain on the plastic mount which is already stronger than older plastic mounts because of the thicker more robust molding,

[@BenCadwallader]

Yes. They have a metal option.

[@benbutlerfishing]

how would the navigation chart do for a lake you have never been on. Would I hit a sandbar or stump. I have experience with hummingbird, but I like the garmin sonar better. I was wondering about the mapping because it would be a great combo for me.

[@AquaLifestyle]

The Garmin Lake Vu charts are great for some lakes with high detail and have been called "lacking" by some on other lakes. I would suggest contacting Garmin directly to determine if the lakes you fish are well represented in their cartography. You can reach them at 1-800-800-1020

[@AquaLifestyle]

Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it. From what I have seen good UHD resolution can be had in freshwater from 80-100 and maxing out at about 120 feet depending on the water clarity etc. The best imagery seems to be up to about 60-70 feet. In salt water resolution seems to drop off from 60-80 feet, again depending water conditions. Your results may vary.

[@nicfishing3740]

Great video, what would the maximum depth be for the traditional sounder and the maximum for the down scan? Cheers.

[@AquaLifestyle]

Maximum depth depends on several variables including settings, water conditions, salt or fresh water etc. I have found that with the included transducer the traditional sounder should give decent resolution to about 600-800 feet with max depth a bit more than that, The down scan should give good resolution up to around 60-100 feet.

When you say shallow vs deep for UHD frequencies what are the practical limits in ft or meters?

I would consider anything over 60-100 feet or 30 meters (depending on water conditions) deep, with the optimal UHD imagery maxing out around 80 feet.

[@jaydoman7540]

Can you run the optional through hull transducer @ the same time with the “provided” 3 way using up to, 3 screens? Thanks 🎣😊

[@AquaLifestyle]

Unfortunately not. There is only one plug in the back of the unit for the all in one transducer and a second plug for Pantopix if adding that. There is no additional 8 pin plug for a traditional transducer on the Echomap UHD.

You mentioned that the ferrite magnet went on the power cable. The documentation states that is supposed to go on the transducer cable.

Great review! If purchased with g3 charts do you have to purchase/load navionics to get dock to dock routing?

[@KeyWestMangoAddict]

What range of depth is this transducer good for? What’s the frequency range. I fish between 20-250’ of water ,salt water?

[@AquaLifestyle]

The chirp portion of the transducer will give you good resolution well beyond the 250 foot range while the down view and side view will work up t 100 foot or so with the best resolution out to 60-70 feet (all depending on water conditions).

[@rassiesmithiii2836]

Thank you for your review. I'm looking to purchase the 94SV or the Garmin 943xsv. I'm trying to decide between the two. The 943xsv is obviously more expensive. I fish Gulf waters between 50 to 140 ft. Can you please provide any suggestions? I like both units.

[@AquaLifestyle]

Either is a great choice. If you are not looking to add radar, a remote display or multiple transducers, the 94SV will work very well for you at those depths without having to spend extra $$.

When mounting transducer on trolling motor are the 3 sonar views are as good as a transom mount transducer, UHD93sv model.

If the transducer is mounted correctly the views are as good as a transom mounted transducer. In fact, the side scan can produce better images from the rolling motor as it has a clear view on either side of the transducer (no outboard in the way).

Can you hook it up to 2 transducers at once and run them on mulitipul screens....leys say Panoptix and down imaging?

[@AquaLifestyle]

You can have your Pantopix module and another transducer (like the all in one that comes with many Echomap units including down imaging) plugged into the unit at the same time. The Pantopix would plug into the ethernet looking port in the back and down imaging transducer into the transducer port. You can then run them either on separate screens or together as a split screen. So long as the transducers are not running at the same frequencies they will not interfere with one another.

Hi.. What are al the names and number of the models that did came after this garmin model and do you have a video where you explain them as you did with this model ? What is the maximum depth I can search for fish on deep water with this model using the low frequency and is this a pro or a cons image at 400 to 700 feed of water ?

[@AquaLifestyle]

The newest generation of Echomap are the Echomap Ultra in 10"" and 12" models and Echomap UHD2 models in 6",7", 9" SV models and 5" and 7" CV models. With certain transducers set to the low frequency, you will be able to get good readings in 400-700 feet in saltwater, even though 700 feet is close to the outer limits of good resolution. Again, it really depends on the transducer and frequencies used.

You can go with one of the GPSMAP series displays such as the 743xsv or the 943xsv (or larger model) and pair it with a 1KWn transducer. You can see the different transducers at www.garmin.com/en-US/c/marine/boat-sonar-transducers/?productFilterTransducerCompatibility_GPSMAP=gpsmap_7x3xsv_9x3xsv_12x3xsv

Would you know if Garmin has a a DC adaptor if I need to plug in unit at home? Thanks

[@AquaLifestyle]

I don't believe they do at this time. Some just use a small 12volt battery like those used in home alarm systems etc. There are also regulated 12v power supplies available that convert 110ac to 12v dc for medical devices but they can be expensive. Either way, If you go that route always make sure the power cord is fused correctly.

In general, the TI units are faster in response to inputs. This is seen when quickly switching between sonar, downscan, chart, and split screens kzbin.infoUgkxeAxH15LxhjGlg5-CRYqjTGTEH0tbY4vk recommend The Hook units will show some lag on button pushes and screen switching. The big ticket item though is maps. If you install a mapping card such as Navionics or the free C-Map Genesis which has a lot of map detail, then moving around the map with the cursor or when running down the lake can lag significantly on the Hook units, but is seamless with the TI units.

We think so too

How much is the threw hull dransduas

[@AquaLifestyle]

They range from about $200 (US) on up. If you visit the web site and look up your machine and then click accessories - transducers, you can see all the transducers available and prices.

need to work on the volume hard to hear most ofthe time

[@AquaLifestyle]

Yeah sorry, we have better microphones now. This was one of our first video.

How much time did you spend on the water with this unit? How many of the features did you actually test in practical use? Did you even get it wet? Unless you've actually used it, I don't think you can call a video like this a real review. Any sonar can put together a nice simulator mode.

[@AquaLifestyle]

While you are right that any manufacturer can indeed create an impressive simulation (and do) I have spent time with this model on the water testing it in real world applications both in fresh water and in saltwater, inshore and offshore on 3 different vessels. We shoot these videos in studio because it allows us to shoot the clearest video possible without the environmental issues found shooting on a boat.

Is the navionics platinum plus chart cards compatible with this unit ?
