    Thanks for the feedback. Can you point me to where in the menu I would add back the heading line?

    FWIW we are trolling at 1.8mph so speed activation is not an issue. What I am seeing at present...

    I agree its hard to get things back to normal including simple things like the depth offset for the transducer.

    Solix G1 chart speed

    I've never been really impressed with the chart speed, but after updating to 4.130 I find it to be quite laggy. I troll along contours a lot and quite often I'm well off course before it updates...

    Ranger powers their electronics with a 3 amp fuse. My Solix has had no issues at all with fuses. Definitely does not like std lead acid battery voltages though. Highly recommend lithium. My 125ah...

    I went with an Ionic 125 ah lithium battery for starting/house and have never looked back. All the power related gremlins are gone assuming you have decent wiring. I'm on the OE Ranger wiring...

    I think that there would be advantages to a single 36v setup provided you had a proper charger. I run 3 Ionic 100's and a MK460PC charger. Works very well, but I do find that 2 of 3 banks charge at...

    I've seen on one of mine that if the voltage gets too high it does not show. Sounds like yours are at normal voltages but keep an eye on it.

    The marinco plug is the 12VCP where the wires just slide in and the screw pulls down a plate to sandwich the wire. Loose as a goose on mine. It was factory installed by Ranger so that does not...

    Go Lithium and don't look back! The Solix really doesn't like the voltage to be below 12.5 more or less. As voltage drops it acts stupid and problems start. I went lithium and problem solved...

    I put my entire wiring system on a relay wired to my ACC switch. I don't have easy access to my battery switch plus if I turn off the switch I lose my trim/tilt.

    Knowing what I know now I would definitely go lithium. Electronics like the voltage to be higher. If I had it to do again I would look really hard at building my own.

    I have a full Ionic set and if I were buying ready built I'd not hesitate to do it again. That said, if I was to do the trolling setup again (not starting) I might just build my own.

    If Ranger wired your boat like they do the glass ones you should have a large 8 or 6 ga? wire from the battery switch to the console area already.

    I'd be curious to know what the true output voltage is as well. If it's 12v which is my guess it will be too low. Seeing that it can convert 13v down I'd say it's going to be low. I'd be looking...
