Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between CHO and CMSI+ in the bundle?
CHO bundle: only MEGA Live 2 transducer included, no SI/DI transducer. CMSI+ bundle: both transducers included. CHO is for anglers who already have an SI transducer, CMSI+ is the complete package.
Do I need a separate MEGA SI+ transducer too?
YES with CHO, the Side Imaging transducer is sold separately. Use the XM 9 HW MSI T or XM 14 HW MSI T depending on mount.
Is MEGA Live 2 different from MEGA Live (1)?
Yes. MEGA Live 2 has improved imaging clarity, better target separation, and updated firmware over the original MEGA Live. MEGA Live 2 also requires firmware v5.060 or later on your XPLORE/APEX/SOLIX, the bundle ships with units already on compatible firmware.
How does this compare to LiveScope or ActiveTarget?
MEGA Live 2 is Humminbird's competing live-sonar transducer to Garmin's LiveScope LVS34 and Lowrance's ActiveTarget 2. All three deliver real-time forward imaging. MEGA Live 2 has slightly better resolution at the MEGA frequency, slightly different beam shape. The choice mostly comes down to which platform (Humminbird, Garmin, Lowrance) you're already running, mixed-platform live sonar setups don't work.
What trolling motor do I need?
For the best MEGA Live 2 experience, pair with a Minn Kota Ultrex Quest or Fortrex with the Target Lock adapter (sold separately). Target Lock lets you lock the trolling motor onto the target shown on MEGA Live 2 and follow it automatically. Compatible with most trolling motors via standard transducer mount, but Target Lock specifically requires Minn Kota Quest series + adapter.
