does the #153 maintain contact with bottom at higher speeds?

Mine is on a 14ft ali with 18 hp and holds contact. Much depends on correct placement of the transducer. It is cheap and brilliant for small boats. My son has his with a 35hp and it breaks contact at full speed. We know the area and reduce speed in interesting territory.

Ive installed it at the bottom, besides the outboard engine (I have an aluminium small boat used for fishing, with a 25 HP engine). It isnt very good at 30-25 mph and above because of the bubles.

with the sonar, I had no problem keeping contact with bottom at any speed. the white line mode is especially efficient. love it.

To be honest - I have no tried it. I only use it when I am drifting in pretty shallow waters. Sorry I am no help.

Based on my experience, yes it will frequently slide off. I tried to use this on the center of my F250 dashboard, and found it slid every time I accelerated or slowed down quickly. I finally stuck it in a corner and it stayed. I previously had one made by Garmin that had a non-stick bottom that worked great.

Google it to be sure but I think so. It is a centrifugal clutch, the faster it spins forces the clutch to engage. So I don't think direction matters. GOOGLE IT TO BE SURE.

If you can anchor it in a way that it won't slide back while at high speeds you should be good. It also has a rubber like bottom that will keep it from sliding as well. There are plenty of tie down loops all around it.

John, It has variable speeds. Depending on how hard you pull the trigger it will go from crawling to full out.

Yes it does have a bottom contact ,I bought for my wife for the size ,but I have used it a bunch it's powerful for it's size and the slave flash works really well I would recommend it highly for the price $$$$

Number of speeds is not important. What is important is that it is compatible with the width of your bottom bracket.

You can shift to second going about 20mph. I wouldn't advise going match faster as it can tip over on a tight turn if the terrain is tacky.

Both, the weight and the bottom of the pad. I haven't had any issues with mine sliding around.

I think it does, as long as you use it on the smooth surface side. I have had to make some big movements in the games I play, and have had no problems.

It has a rubber ring around the bottom. I have no problem with it slipping.

Yes it does. Can go all the way to bottom just keep it about an inch from the gravel. It needs good waterflow to be accurate though.

I've never had an issue bottoming out only once when I hit a pot hole . But that's normal I think. I have rode 2 up and never an issue . Happy riding !

Not really, the variable speed isn't linear when pushing the trigger. It starts slow then suddenly takes off full speed. This will drive the sheet rock screws in too deep.

Yes, it can go down or up in speed. X1.0,.09,.08,.07,.06.05, up or down. It is great for learning new songs, lead and backup parts. I have used the LR-10 since they cameout and I think it is one of the best tools one can buy.Buy one you will love it. Rog, H.

No, there is no smaller version, but you can do what I did and remove the bottom extension. The opening will be flat, rather than slanted, but it still works well. After a few tries you will find the right angle and movement speed.

No, the rubber strips don't slow it down on our carpet/rugs. But the rear rubber wheels do add some friction when going from hard floor to carpet.
