In general, the TI units are faster in response to inputs. This is seen when quickly switching between sonar, downscan, chart, and split screens ruclips.net/user/postUgkxeAxH15LxhjGlg5-CRYqjTGTEH0tbY4vk recommend The Hook units will show some lag on button pushes and screen switching. The big ticket item though is maps. If you install a mapping card such as Navionics or the free C-Map Genesis which has a lot of map detail, then moving around the map with the cursor or when running down the lake can lag significantly on the Hook units, but is seamless with the TI units.
dont get me wrong, i was waiting this entire time for lowrance to catch up knowing it would be a leap in performance we havent yet seen from them, but the fact i have 2 hds carbon 9's at my console and an HDS Live 12 on my bow, with active target (which is getting ripped off and sold today), i STILL need to not only spend 950$ for a module to get what humm and Garmin get without another box in my boat, for no where NEAR the price!! Active Imaging HD = 400$, 3100 Module = over 1,000$ after tax, Active Target 2 to replace my original = 1,600-1,800$. all in all well north of 3,000$ for upgrades which i refuse to do now.. Will be selling both carbons and live and Active target with a 3 in 1 transducer and seperate chirp ducer if anyones interested! Hello Livescope and Garmin for not being greedy assholes on a less than 2 year old Unit! Never owned anything but lowrance but this stone cold ticks me off! #sorryfortherant!
You still want to sell your hds 12?
@@marcusfry491 unfortunately both are gone already bud, just have an hds 9 left on my kayak, insane to pay that kinda $$ for a module just to have 1,000khz+ imaging when garmin/humm come with it, no module required
Well said.
If you have lives and carbons and have one pro and they are all etherneted together as long as the new transducer is plugged into the pro it share to the reat
What is missing is a video on using the "settings/networks" screen to set up HDS unit to the S3100 and AI transducer. Dealing with the "call center"/ product support is not fun and a waste of time. I finally got it done (hit and miss) using Lowrance's very generic video on networking units. I love the Genesis Live feature and I am happy with my unit's higher frequency now.
Hello, Very interesting vidéo.
I have a question. On my boat, I have installed a Lowrance HDS 9 Live with a 3 in 1 transducer and recently, I have installed a S3100 module.
I would like to know which is the best transducer to install to get cleanest image and the maximum details ?
Following what I have seen on your video, I think that the best transducer is actually the 000-16061-001 Active imaging HD 3 in 1 Fishreveal HW. Is it correct ?
Thanks in advance for your advice and best regards.
Patrick
Is it compatible with simrad evo3 nss
I understand in order to get the sidescan fish reveal option, you need the S3100 module, whether you have the Pro or Live. Couldn’t you save money and get this option by just getting the Live and pairing the HD3-1 transducer/S3100 module combo instead of the Pro with the same thing? Thanks!
Great video! How does the Active Imaging HD and 3-in-1 compare to the Garmin GT56? I’m considering between the new UHD2 93sv (with GT56) and a reduced price HDS Live 9 (with Active Imaging 3-in-1). The UHD2 is new, but the HDS Live is a higher tier (e.g. better resolution) but older (older transducer). Thanks!!
So when will these be for sale...I just purchased a HDS live 12 no transducer....reason...waiting to see what came out next as add ons....I heard February but I don't know it I want to wait that long
Yes, you're probably looking at February at this point
4:08 I've never gotten a saticfactory answer to explain those two parallel vertical shadows on the left image. Most of it appears to be gone in the screenshot on the right...
Are you talking about what you see in the surface clutter or along the bottom sonar return?
@@InDepthSonar ..those two shaded bands, just above the bottom on the sidescan views..L. and R.
Could just be the transducer angle. Typically you'll see that when the transducer isn't angled correctly
@@InDepthSonar ..then virtually every Ti2 video on RUclips has the same shadow bands...guess again.
Do you see it on other Lowrance units or just the Ti units?
So am I reading this right, that if you have a HSD Carbon or HDS Live and don't want Fish reveal but you want better side scan/downscan with the AIHD ducers, you can connected the AIHD 3-1 directly to your units and you don't need the new S3100 network module?
Nope. If you wan to use the new AIHD 3-in-1 on an Elite fs, HDS live or HDS carbon you will need the S3100 box. With the HDS pro you will still need it to get the sidescan fish reveal, but not the new Mhz range on the side and downscan.
Hello. There is any software from lowrance that enables to see the Side Scan data in the computer? Is it possible to convert to geotiff or other formats to upload in other navigation equipment? Tahnks.
I have Carbon units...currently with a SS 3d Transducer. I was going to replace that with a S3100 & AI HD Med/HighTransducer. I was also planning to combine that with the Airmar TM165HW. The Airmar would give me the High & Wide. I was thinking the Airmar would be a better 2D transducer. Can I use the Airmar transducer for fish reveal? Is this a good combination? What are your thoughts?
Can you provide a little more info on the 3-1 HW vs M/W transducer? I fish freshwater. Is there a maximum recommended depth for each.
If you are shallower than 100' the HW would be best. If you are deeper than the MW would be best. They don't list a max depth for either from what I can see.
I just purchased a HDS 9 Live unit with 3 in 1 transducer for the console on my bass boat. I plan on linking via ethernet with two HDS 9 gen3 units one at console and bow. Will they link and share information from the 3 in 1 transducer. I don"t expect the same detailed images on the Gen 3 units just want to be able to get the same quality as the Gen 3's originally have. I was told they would link with no problem. Thank You
Yes they will see the three in one that's connected to the live. But like you said, it'll be to the capability of the unit that is displaying it for the level of detail
Will the HDS Live with the S3100 module and AIHD have the same frequency capabilities as the HDS Pro with the AIHD?
Thank you for info!
Yes it will. New software for Live should be out soon
With HDS 9 Live would it need a update or direct plug and play? I just currently bought this unit, would it be best just to return and get the HDS Pro? And if so would it have the enhanced side or would I need to upgrade the module and transducer? Thanks great gideo
If you got the HDS9 Live at a deal your best to keep it. If you want to use AIHD on it you'll need the S3100 module, AIHD transducer and update the software when it's available
Hello...I fish from kayak and currently have no electronics. I have never used electronics. Typically fish riprap banks and laydowns. I want electronics. I want 1 graph and 1 transducer. I'm not interested in livescope or similar technology that uses an added transducer. What brand/model would give me best bang without plans to "add" livescope? I don't mind the "buy once cry once" mentality. I do not want to buy cheap unit only to upgrade
I would go with a Lowrance Elite FS unit in that case. Very easy to use and offer a great sonar.
..I've got a 7 inch Ti2 on my inflatable...you should be able to get a deal on one...
So to use new HD3n1 transducer on hds live, carbon or elite fs you need a module? I m asking about standard one not the fish reveal
Yes, you'll need the s3100 module.
Thank u for videos,so any HD transducer won’t work with HdsLive straight forward?
And AT 2 sensor only won’t work with 1 box?
Correct. You'll need the full AT2 system and the S3100 for AIHD
@@InDepthSonar Do u know what frequencies will be on HD transducer on a side scan (455 and 1075 only or there will be 800 as a choice?) thanks .Very disappointed ,that I can’t use 1st module AT toys it with 2nd AT transducer…sad
So if I have an hds live I will need to buy the transducer and a module? How much extra is the module?
Yes. They are $950 I think. I have another video on the S3100
Will the HD transducer do any difference on an Elite FS sonar? Or is the screen resolution to low on those screens?
It will make a difference for sure. Screen resolution will play a role but you'll get bigger gains from AIHD being Chirp and in the megahertz range
If I all ready use the Airmar TM165HW for 2d sonar which 3in1HD transducer would be best to get the H/W or M/W? Only fish in saltwater up to 20 feet deep.
Too expensive. Lowrance have misjudged their customers.
Price is Double in Europe. If I buy from US it does not work because of Geo Fence
That is correct. You have to buy locally or purchase an unlock code from Lowrance. But it's messed up
What a rip off; I buy a sonar £5000 then I have to buy a box to make it as good as the competition. Daylight robbery
Added to which my HDS LIVE 16 is not suitable for any of this kit.
I’m done with Lowrance!!!
To get up to the level the competitors are on?? Shoot... lowrance has been in the lead to begin with, they just made the gap bigger 😂
May i ask how lowrance have been in the lead to begin with? Bit of a bold statement considering the level of detail you get with a Humminbird unit or Garmin running the GT54 or GT56 transducer trumps that of the Lowrance units in shallow water applications due to the higher frequencies.
I think the only way Lowrance leads is with GPS and UI.
What are you going on about? Lowerance doesn't lead anything, and with the new screens for the new insane prices they still won't. Even the GPS is far superior on Garmin. The only thing it does better is the UI, mostly for the people that want to plug and play. For the more advanced users I would say that their settings and UI are a bit too simple. Can you please tell what you think makes them ahead of the competition? They are for example almost 8 years late with Mhz sidescan.
Well one thing for sure they are the leader right now in a dual Live Sonar setup. Regardless of the cost they have Garmin beat here for sure. But Garmin is only a software update away from taking that spot again
