User questions & answers

Question:	Does this come with a transducer
Answer:	Yes mine came with a transducer. It came with everything needed to set up and be ready to go as if you never had a fish finder before. Although the two wire clamps to hold your cable for the transducer are fragile, I recommend getting new ones
Question:	Does this unit also give depth readings of the water
Answer:	Yes! Depth, temperature, speed you're moving, time of day etc. this is an awesome unit for the price
Question:	does the power source (12 volt i've read) come with the package, or do i need to purchase that

STRIKER 4

3.5-inch CHIRP Fishfinder with GPS.

Navigate Easily with Waypoint Map

Since the STRIKER fishfinder series includes high-sensitivity GPS, you can see your position in relation to waypoints you have marked. Use the waypoint map to easily view, mark and navigate to locations such as brush piles, stumps and docks. It’s also a great tool for finding your way back to the boat ramp.

Check Your Speed on Screen

You can quickly and easily see your boat’s speed on the screen of your STRIKER fishfinder. It’s a great tool to make sure you are trolling at the right speed for the lure you’re using and for a particular fish species. It’s also a good way to tell if you are going the right speed in wake-controlled areas.

Take Your Fishfinder Anywhere

A portable kit is available to protect and carry your STRIKER fishfinder with GPS, so it’s perfect for kayak, canoe or ice fishing. It includes a sealed, rechargeable battery with charger, built-in transducer cable management and storage and suction cup transducer mount and float.

Experience the Clarity of CHIRP

STRIKER 4 fishfinder includes a Garmin CHIRP (77/200 kHz) transducer, which provides a visibly higher level of clarity and detail for fish and structure than traditional 77/200 kHz transducers.

Instead of sending just 1 single frequency, CHIRP sends a continuous sweep of frequencies, ranging from low to high, then interprets them individually upon their return. Since the frequencies provide a wider range of information, CHIRP sonar technology can create crisper fish arches with greater target separation.

You also can upgrade to high-performance Garmin CHIRP technology, which provides crystal-clear sonar images with even more remarkable target separation and resolution from shallow to deeper depths. For better fishing, bottom contours are more visible, even at higher speeds, and signal noise can be suppressed at greater depths to provide a more timely interpretation of what’s below.

Meaning if you selected in the menu option it will track your progress throughout the day.so if you merely follow your track back to your origin it will take you back to the dock. You can also create waypoints that you can navigate to. So if you created a waypoint and named it dock you could simply use the unit to make your way back to the dock .

User questions & answers

Question:	Can i use my existing garmin 440s transducer transom mount for the transducer that’s comes with this? i really don’t want to drill more holes
Answer:	See previous answers.
Question:	Does it have a speed display on it
Answer:	BOSS Audio Systems TW17-200. During five years, I've installed it in a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee (rear doors); in a 2013 Honda Accord Coupe (rear deck) and in a 2006 Nissan Maxima (rear deck). All the installations have been wired directly from the nearest speaker. All have performed very well, have been reliable and the quality of the sound have improved a lot for the price. Highly recommended.
Question:	Does the 73cv support PanOptix
Answer:	The package is a pair of tweeters. There are also two styles of mounting brackets; a) trim rings for 'near' flush mount as the tweeters have a domed mesh metal covering, b) brackets for surface mounting which puts the tweeters about 1-1/4" above the surface. Each tweeter has attached leads with the 'bass blocking' crossover capacitor built in.
Question:	Does this unit have side imaging? Description a little vague
Answer:	you asked this question months ago, jeje, try to look at your currently tweeters, and measure it, and compare with these ones, these are 1" high, 2.75 long(from screw hole to screw hole) and 1.75" wide, (the circle top). that was what i just did righnow, and i now these will fit to my nissan sentra,

User questions & answers

Question:	does it come with the fish finder or is it just the bag and other items
Answer:	It comes with everything you need,the bag, the holder,the battery, the charger,the fish finder with gps tracking, and instructions
Question:	Will this unit show bait fish
Answer:	only if there is big schools
Question:	Planning on having this stricly portable from boat to boat, is it easily installed and removed? Or is drilling required
Answer:	I've take one with me up to Alaska for the last 8 years. Setup is about five minutes on the 14' Lunds we rent up there.After the first time, the transducer cable length is established so stuff it in the side pouch at the end of the day. The rest of the cable stays wrapped up on the hanger inside the portable unit.The unit is very stable and sits nicely on the bench in front of me, even in the bumps.I keep a Scotchbrite pad in another pouch on the unit. Scrub a spot on the transom before sticking the suction cup on.I keep some tiewraps in the side pouch. Use a tiewrap to tie off the transducer cable to something on the boat. The suction cup holds up to 20 mph... until it doesn't. Tiewrapping the cable to the boat keeps the transducer out of the prop.
Question:	What does the bundle come with? Battery? Tranduser for ice fishing
Answer:	STRIKER 4 Dual-beam transducer Tilt/swivel mount Portable bag Base/handle Suction cup mount Foam float Kayak In-hull Transducer Mount Power cable Rechargeable battery AC charger Documentation
Question:	Please i need a trasceduser cable replacement. How much will it cost me
Answer:	Usually we didn't sell the transducer alone. If you already bought fish finder from us before, please contact us through amazon message and we will give you the offer for the transducer alone.
Question:	It works in salt water
Answer:	Yes,this Lucky fish finder can work well in salt water. It is suitable for ocean、lakes and rivers. Hope this helps.
Question:	can you mount the transistor in side the kayak
Answer:	Usually people will fix the transducer on the hull of the kayak (the outside). Because the transducer can only be working when it touches the water.
Question:	Does it work well for ice fishing
Answer:	Yes it works well for ice fishing, although you must drop the transducer below the ice in order for it to read depth accurately. I also found that it has the potential to mis-detect large tube jigs as a fish, but I actually don’t mind that as it tells me how deep my bait is. I also use this with my kayak mounted with the bracket, so I get double duty. Battery life is fantastic even in below zero temps. I’ve been out with it on several outings below freezing and I’m still on the same set of batteries! I would recommend this product.
Question:	What's the RMS on these subs
Answer:	I think it’s 1200 but i am not sure. I have four of them running at 2ohms with a planet audio torq 5000.1 amp. One of the loudest trucks in town.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this Garmin fish finder comes installed with maps (Marine maps
Answer:	There is no way to put any maps on this unit but it does have storage to make your own maps. It has a mapping feature so you can map the depths of your favorite lake. The specs says it will hold 1 million acres of lake maps. Granted, you have to be on a boat and troll to do the mapping but it does work and it works rather well.
Question:	For in hull transducer mounts for a fiberglass boat, Garmin suggested putting the transducer in a container full of antifreeze. Any other methods
Answer:	I can’t speak to fiberglass as I use mine on kayak. However I do use my transducer shooting thru hull attached with duct seal that forms a reservoir around transducer and then I add water. That works perfectly! Duct seal is $3 at Lowe’s or Home Depot.
Question:	What's the difference between this and the "garmin striker 4 with transducer, 3.5" gps fishfinder with chirp traditional transducer
Answer:	This one has a feature where you can contour maps the bottom of any lake or river you're in.
Question:	how many holes do i need to drill to install the transducer
Answer:	Don't drill holes in your boat. Find an old 3/8-1/2" plastic cutting board and cut a 4x4 piece out of it and using 3m sticky tape mount it to the transom and use short screws to mount the transducer to the piece of cutting board. Did that back in 1979 and has never come loose.
Question:	Whats the maximun depth that it can read
Answer:	It’s in the description I believe. Otherwise YouTube has this information
Question:	Will this work in shallow waters? What is the minimum depth it will read accurately? Read a review where it was said to lose use under 10 feet
Answer:	I know from experience it can read depths as shallow as 1 foot but I don’t know the exact limitations or specs. The problem that renders this and any fish finder useless in shallow water is the amount of vegetation and its direct proximity. In shallow water with dense vegetation reaching the surface you’re most likely only going to see screen noise displayed which may effect the abilities to properly gauge water depths. If there is no vegetation and the ground is of solid structure then this will work fine in water 10’ or less.
Question:	Can the transducer be mounted on the trolling motor
Answer:	Yes it’s come with all the hardware needed to install you might have to change some things depending on your trolling motor
Question:	Will I be able to see the screen with polarized sunglasses
Answer:	Yes you can because I am using as well the polarized glasses with a light yellow tint

User questions & answers

Question:	Will it swivel with current mount in box
Answer:	They can only really take about 400 unclipped watts. With 3k just get more subs and split the power then adjust your gain.
Question:	Does it have a map or can a map be loaded
Answer:	It's pretty good it will sound great
Question:	Does it rotate
Answer:	I whould get a 2,000 watt rms amp somthing like the skar 2000.1 mono amp whould be perfect the subwoofer is rated for 1250 watt rms but they can handle 2,000 dont get an amp that puts out 2500 watts rms the reason bieng the sub only handles 2500 max and people get rms mixed up with max rating and they blow them rms is what you can run the sub at for longer periods of time and the max rating is more for demo power like at car shows when you see the crazy amounts of bass its because subs can be played at their max rating but only for a short time 2-4 mins at max i hope this help and also this are very good subs i have two of them and their great they sound good and are of great quality. Also i whould advise breaking them in first because they are pretty stiff i broke mine in if you chose to break them in dont turn the bass nob up for than 1/4 of the way and then slowly increase the amount of power you put into the subs every day play them only for 15-20 mins every day for about a week if you are going back and forth to work its a perfect time to break them in to and from work and after that you can turn the bass nob up as far as you want these are fantastic subs and definetly whould buy again. I hope this helps.
Question:	Is the screen waterproof
Answer:	It wouldn't the sub is huge coupled. With box very big

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this unit come with the transducer
Answer:	You can use as a stand alone, BUT it is a woofer and a Low DB speaker. It is not a full range speaker that will replace a standard 8in. You should use a small amp. A 50 to 100w amp make these sound very good
Question:	Does this unit come with A transducer
Answer:	When using an amplifier which is 4 channels and you bridge or combined 2 channels, you increase the stable Ohm by two. For example, if you have a 4 channel amp that is 2 ohms stable on each channel. When you bridge the channels, the lowest you can go is 4ohms.
Question:	I have a Garmin Stirker 7sv, will the transducer for that unit work for this one
Answer:	This are great subs but 2 10 at 300 rms would be better.
Question:	Does it come with the gt54uhd transducer
Answer:	Yes One voice coil on one side. The other voice coil on the other
