Nyhet fra Humminbird - Helix 7

Du har tidligere lest om Humminbird Helix 5 her, nå kommer storebroren Helix 7.

Storebror er svært lik lillebror, det vil si den her helt lik bortsett fra skjermstørrelsen. Jeg skal derfor spare dere for å gå igjennom spesifikasjonene enda en gang, de kan du uansett lese i linken til Helix 5-artikkelen i introen.

Humminbird Helix 7


Oppløsningen er på skuffende 480X800. Når jeg sier "skuffende" er ikke det fordi dette er dårligere enn konkurrentene, det er akkurat det samme som de, men fordi det spennende med Helix 5 nettopp var kombinasjonen av SI og den høye oppløsningen. Når nå storebror får samme oppløsning som lillebror, betyr det at du ikke ser noe MER på en Helix 7 enn på en Helix 5, du ser det bare STØRRE. Jeg hadde håpet at oppløsningen på Helix 5 var et tegn på at Humminbird var i ferd med å oppgradere oppløsningen på alle sine modeller, men Helix 7 tilsier at de kommer til å følge det vante sporet. Så der Helix 5 fikk en tommel opp, får Helix 7 en "helt ok".

Modellvariasjonene blir:
  • Helix 7 Sonar Only
  • Helix 7 Sonar/GPS Combo
  • Helix 7 DI Only
  • Helix 7 DI/GPS Combo
  • Helix 7 SI/GPS
  • Helix 7 SI/DI/Sonar/GPS Combo

  • Som for Helix 5 vil vi sikkert se at den norske importøren Flak ikke tar inn alle variantene. Her i Norge vil neppe variantene med bare DI eller DI/GPS og SI/GPSvære særlig aktuelle, så vi vil nok se Helix 7 som rent ekkolodd, kombinert ekkolodd/GPS og full pakke her på berget. Norske priser er ikke fastsatt enda.

    The perfect settings for Lowrance? A guide on how to set up your 2D-sonar part I.

    Perhaps the most repeated question in Facebookgroups and forums regarding marine electronics: "What are the best settings?" The bad news is that there is no uniform answer to that. The good news is that you can adjust settings according to conditions if you have a little knowledge as to what settings you should tweak and why. Here is part 1 of our guide to get the most out of your unit in regards to settings.

    What is the difference between HDS Carbon and HDS Live?

    Here we go again, a new generation of the Lowrance HDS. And with that Facebook and the different forums are flooded with questions referring to the difference between the new and the old. So what is the difference between Lowrance HDS Live and HDS Carbon?

    Lowrance Elite Ti2 versus Elite FS

      When Lowrance launches a new mid-range unit, it is a big deal. Forums and Facebookgroups light up with questions on the new stuff, differences towards the old stuff and questions on compatibility. As usual, we in Team Colibri will try our best to sort that out, both on a technical level and with a more practical in-your-boat approach.

    What is the difference between Lowrance HDS Live and Elite Ti2?

    Lowrance as a brand of marine electronis is well known to all anglers, but the differences within their range of different models seem to cause quite a few questions out there. Here we will try to outline the difference between Lowrance HDS Live (top end) and Lowrance Elite Ti2 (middle range). Lowrance Elite Ti2 vs Lowrance HDS Live (photo; lowrance.com) As usual, we will start with the tech and then try to translate those technical aspects to practical differences while out on the water. Hardware - housing, screen and connections. The screen and housing on Elite Ti2 is the same as on the previous Elite Ti, and again more or less the same as on HDS Gen 2 Touch. (The memorycard-door and mounting-bracket is different from HDS Gen 2 Touch.) This is by no means new stuff, and compared to the more advanced housing and screen on HDS Live, Elite Ti2 is starting to show its relative age. However, with that in mind it is worth noting that when looking at the competition, several of

    Lowrance Hook 2 versus Lowrance Hook Reveal

    You have to hand it to Lowrance when it comes to the name of their new entry-level line of sonar and chartplotters. We all want to hook up, and what better way to do that then by having our marine electronics reveal to us where the fish are?
