Will this unit work in the great lakes?

It works most anywhere you load the correct chart for. For depth, speed, & basic GPS location, it doesn't need any download.

It should. The only thing I can think of that might interfere with the unit could be interference from the boat's electrical system - generator/alternator (see farm tractor question and answers). If the motor is off and the detector is not shielded it doesn't matter if you are on land or on the water it is not a phone it detects the energy from lightning.

We use ours for our pond but I should think it would work in any water. It is quite handy.

It will work fine. We've similar winter temps in Minnesota and mine's worked great. Simply connect to the battery, plug it in and wait for spring. It usually comes eventually.

I don't think so. I bought this for my wife. She loves it and the kids and my self use it as well. We use it on a lake.

I believe that your rig will work, due to the pressure differential, which is what makes the unit come on. You'll have to play with flow and pressure until you hit the right combination. As water gets colder coming in, you need to ramp up the cutoff points. Some pdroblems aren't directly due to a bad unit;it's just the physics involved.

Yes. I live in Hawaii and use the device on a small boat. The unit is water resistant, regularly gets wet from ocean spray and I rinse it down with fresh water after each outing.

I would say no as it is a 240v unit. I don't think the unit would heat the water sufficiently.

Yes, but it will false in the wet salt water sand, unless you turn the sensitivity way down, which will reduce your depth to shallow surface finds. The coil will work in the shallow freshwater, just don't drop the detector or get the control box wet.

Assuming you have North American power where you live, yes :-) I bought one for ours and it works fantastic.

Hi. I have mine in Florida and Ohio and it works very well with both. My Ohio one is plumbed to both and dies a great job. Hope this helps

Yes, it will. I am very happy with this unit. Since it was comparatively less expensive than some other models I had my doubts. I use it in my country cottage to determine wall, wood burning furnace, and pipe temperatures. Unfortunately, my pipes froze before I ordered this. I like this unit so much, that I am going to order one for my home.

This unit has an outboard power supply so it should be ok. It does not provide power to any other units or lines.

it has always worked for me - I'm in north east US and it was a brutal 2013- 2014 winter - the water never froze - making me and the birds very happy. just make sure you get the correct wattage extension cord.

I would guess so.. as long as the water input port is the same size, it should work. The blue/gray triangle-ish shaped thing floats around on the top of the water (using water jets) and it has a net that reaches down and drags around on the bottom picking up debris.

No....it will not. The unit requires 20psi at the input. it is however a great machine with lots of power.

Absolutely. That's exactly what it's made for. I have mine mounted outside in New England and it handles our frigid, snowy winters and rainy other seasons no problem. Just mount it antennas up. Like in the pictures. Otherwise water could get in.
