Frequently Asked Questions

Are transducers brand-specific?

Yes. Garmin transducers work with Garmin units, Humminbird transducers work with Humminbird units, and Lowrance transducers work with Lowrance units.

Can I upgrade my transducer without buying a new fish finder?

Often yes. Most Garmin ECHOMAP UHD2, ECHOMAP Ultra 2, Humminbird HELIX G4N, and Lowrance HDS units support LiveScope Plus, MEGA Live 2, or ActiveTarget 2 upgrades by adding a compatible transducer system.
