Hi gang from Ontario Canada
« on: January 03, 2016, 02:50:45 PM »
Hi gang and thanks for the opportunity to join you. Looks like a lot of great info on here! I have a 798cSI paired with an interlink to a 788 I bought from a fellow angler buddy although they are not hooked up yet. It took me a while to get a SI transducer ordered from back-order, but everything is good to go I think.
I will be replacing a unit on my boat (not Humminbird) so not sure if I can tackle it myself! I didn't even know you don't wire them directly to the battery so we'll see after I do some reading... ::)
thanks guys
Rich

West Ky sez hay y'all ...

Absolutely don't forget the fuse in the positive wire close to the battery ...

We also recommend not using the boat's existing wiring and run a dedicated pair from the unit to the battery ... Boat wiring is often too light of gauge wire to properly power the unit ...
