I just started a thread regarding my Ionic app. The one battery did not show anymore. A quick call to them gave me a response. For the battery that is not showing, drain it down to 10 volts to...

2 years ago I replace all my series 31 AGM's with Ionic's, 3 -100AH for trolling motor and a 125AH for my starting and electronics power source. They have been terrific however in the last month or...

To be sure the beauty of this is when in areas without cell coverage, otherwise I agree with you. I suspect if your 30 miles off shore, cell phones have limitations. Mine is mainly used in Canada...

I think it's one of the best safety item in one's boat. In Canada in October and at about 11 in the morning the clouds were quite black and you could hear the distant sound of thunder. I did the...

Thanks everyone. I did some further research and got educated on the TMC-1 verses a Point 1. I guess it doesn't make a lot of sense however did explain the differences. Another subject to discuss...

I have a Ranger 620 with Lowrance Live's. Originally when I bought the boat I ordered it with a Motorguide i5 with the Lowrance interface. Great motor, especially the interface as I mostly fish...

Yes, if the battery is already at full charge, even at -20F storage, there is no requirement for the charger to supply charge current and no need to activate the heater, as the BMS is controlling...

In 2020 I switched from 4 series 31 AGM's to Ionics, 3-100AH for the trolling motor and a 125AH with heater for my main starting and electrical battery. I am in Minnesota and store the boat in my...

This happened to me this winter, one of my trolling batteries discharged and went to sleep. It get's -30 here. Andy said just keep them plugged in, it charge back up just fine and worked perfectly...

On my second year and the support is amazing, even here in Minnesota.

Yes as I have a NMEA 2000 temp sensor which shows up (after I remembered to turn the power on!). I think I will call Lowrance. Thanks for the response.

Will a Sirius/XM Weather module (WM-3) show up when you look at your settings/network/devices?
I was on the lake looking to make sure my Sirius was back activated after being off for the winter. I...

Hello Gary, I find this question more relevant to the other forum you posted it on. Here most of these guys (with the exception of Team Colibri and fellow Minnesotans) shutter at the thought of...

Does your boat have a battery selector switch? My Ranger does and if for some reason you need to use it to jump the main battery, and assuming you have a big motor you would need to have at least a...

I had this happen once. You might consider clearing your alarms, it might help but look at them before you do. Interesting, I have an E-Tec G2 and a Motorguide i5 connected to the NMEA network. ...

Use one of these and it will protect your alternator if you are concerned. https://sterling-power.com/products/alternator-open-circuit-protection-device

Basshopper, this kit does not include the mounting gasket.

OK, I have been doing some research, Called Navico and talked to customer service, actually identified a part number for the Gasket,...

Mine was an easy question to answer. I have a battery switch that one can switch in one of the trolling motor batteries in case my main battery dies. In order to accomplish this I needed to have...

Is there anyone who either has the part number or knows where on can buy just the panel mount gasket for my HDS Live 12? I see where you can get the kit but I only need the gasket.
Thanks

Had to have my 2015 i5 control board replaced last fall. The guy was insistent that I perform mounting angle and compass calibration each time I move 150 miles or more. My brother from LaCrosse and...

Duh.... Thanks!!!

I went to Canada fishing with my brother who has my old HDS12 Carbon. I decided to bring my Active Target to add it onto his MFD, so I asked him to make sure he has the latest download that deals...

Thanks, as that may explain a situation I have seen a couple of times in the past, voltages under 3. My new Minnkota claims to be able to wake up a Lithium.

Bob,

Funny you should ask about the charger. In late October I started looking for a replacement. Because I wanted a drop in and the Minnkota has been a good unit, I went to the Minnkota site...

Last October we were fishing when a storm came through that night. My boat was in a slip under a canopy with the charger plugged in. Besides the leaves and sticks in the boat, everything seemed to...
