Sun Fish Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 I was thinking of buying two Hummingbird 597ci HD DI combos but it looks like this new product may be a way better choice with the 7" screen when it becomes available. http://www.basspro.com/Lowrance-Elite7-Hybrid-Dual-Imaging-Fishfinder/Chartplotter-Combo-83/200-&-455/800-kHz/product/12090505081418/ Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted December 7, 2012 Super User Posted December 7, 2012 I doubt anyone has, BPS doesn't have them either. They are listed as less expensive than the 7" DI unit that Humminbird has--- 858c DI. Quote
Todd Driscoll Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 I've had this unit on the water for several weeks as part of testing/product validation and am very impressed with overall performance. Target separation and clarity with both 2D sonar and downscan was great. At its price point, the Elite 7 HDI will be a very popular unit. Quote
3dees Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 this years xmas gift to myself. will replace my Elite 5 on the console. trying to decide if I need the unit with the downscan or not. I had an Elite 5x dsi on the bow and was not impressed. replaced it with an HDS 7. Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted December 7, 2012 Super User Posted December 7, 2012 IMHO, that unit makes way more sense than the DSI units do. It can actually be used for fishing. Quote
Sun Fish Posted December 7, 2012 Author Posted December 7, 2012 I want to order one now but don't see it in stock anywhere lol. Quote
3dees Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 I read that they will be available mid Febuary. Quote
Sun Fish Posted December 8, 2012 Author Posted December 8, 2012 I read that they will be available mid Febuary. Ya Bass Pro told me they're being released mid February also. Quote
