Do I need anything besides ice transducer?
« on: Dec 23, 2016, 06:53 PM »
I borrowed this from my dad. I plan to use my unit from my boat and the mount from the boat. It has the battery and charger. Do I need anything else besides the transducer?

Now if only I could find a transducer. Everyone seems to be sold out of them. I thought I ordered one from boaters world and they called and said they didn't have them.

Is that code word for eBay? I see the 19 at that price but the 20 is high right now on eBay due to supply I think. I did find a site called fleabay but couldn't find a transducer.

Going to be hard to find one right now without paying a premium for it. Lots of them on ebay around the $100 mark, which actually is the retail price of it. Just watch very carefully that you do not get a 9/19 by mistake.

You also need a power cord, right?

Cord is already there.  I switched it out and powered it up. Not urgent at this point. Our ice is no longer safe. Going to be at least a few weeks.

Here is a true story.  I took  my boat's HB 688 HD DI and put a ix9-20 ice ducer on it.  Today it crapped out.  I called HB to see what I could do. She said to send it back with receipt to show that it is in the one year warranty time frame.   I looked up my eBay purchase from United Outdoors.   It shows I bought it on eBay on 12/27/15.    Today is 12/27/16  exactly one year....  Now I know it took a few days to ship so hopefully they understand.

There are two different ice ducers that I know of the 9-19 and the 9-20, make sure you get the right one for your fish finder.
You can't get the fruit if you don't go out on the limb.

Try this,this is how I got to it. http://humminbirdtransducers.com/TR_XI%209%2020-7102111.htm

That's weird I could not find that. I ordered it. We'll see if it actually goes through. If it does I just will need some ice. thanks
