My sibmarine buddy who claims to know way too much on sonor sez power is your enemy with sonor.Less power better imaging. Makes those red box claims seem silly.
Ya need to look at the transducer. "Most" transducers in the industry operate at 200 kilohertz and are made to put out 300 watts to 400 watts of power. This means that if 400 watts of power is transmitted to the transducer from the sonar unit, then the transducer will put out 400 watts.Now if we hit this same transducer with 1,000 watts of power, it is still only going to put out 400 watts. If we deliver 5,000 watts to it, it will still only put out 400 watts. Any extra wattage over 400 watts delivered by your sonar unit does nothing to improve the signal on your sonar!
No doubt fish can sense the transducer signal.Never noticed it scaring them away.If this is so, why put rattles in lures?
