I got rid of my Aqua Vu HD10i and it wasn't worth it for me.
Why?Too big?
Yea even a dakota Li i could only get 4-4.5 Max.... Carrying extra garbage sucked.... In darker silty water my buddies Marcum VS485c had better clarity i thought sadly too vs the AV IR set up.
I was considering one of these because the cable is longer for the deep water lake trout. Interesting feedback.On my AquaVu Micro Revolution Pro I can get at least 8 hrs if I turn down screen brightness which is fine in a dark ice house. DIdn't the 10i have the same capability? I never use the infrared lights to illumine the camera as there are too many plankton in the water to see well if I do that. My main concern, except for battery life, was the size/weight of the unit -- and how cumbersome it is to deploy. I can get my Micro down a hole and wound up again very quickly using the cable reel on teh back. I think that manual winding would take a long time.
I checked out the cameras at Cabela's today and the VS and Mission had the same picture quality.
