I fished the other day with a guy who had one. It was very compact everything fit in the little suit case it came with. He did mention battery life wasn’t great. but looking at it I thought it was worth the money. Im sure you could make a cordless tool battery work.
I traded something for one of those yellow ones. I accidentally reversed the battery clamps and that was all she wrote.
How much do you actually use this? Like, is is just for seeing what your working with and then putting it up or do you keep it on the whole time you are fishing? also, buddy of mine had a Marcum but he could not use it because it was to bright outside. Is that an issue for any of these Eyoyo cameras?
I did modify mine to run on an auxiliary battery. Not hard to do if you have basic electrical ability.
Can you share how you did it? I was just about to buy a 7" and was a bit worried about the lack of run time.. Not like I fish 7 hours straight most times, but just in case it would be nice to run it on my drill batteries. I've converted flashers and lights all to run on them so always have them on hand
On the 7" you can just buy the ends that supply power to the camera and monitor. On the 9" the wiring is a little different, the battery is inside a box that has the i.r. light control. Just open the box and you can see where the battery plugs into the circuit board. You can splice in there.
I haven't seen any camera screen that is viewable in bright daylight. The eyoyo does include a sun shield but it doesn't help much.
Don't you have problems with your line getting tangled on the camera cable?
Apparently not. It fried it.
Like, fried the camera screen?
