I bullt mine portable about 3 years ago using an orange Plano Dry Storage box. I mounted the 9" screen on top and put the black box inside along with a Milwaukee 18v battery adapter for the source of power. I have several Milwaukee batteries that I use with my power tools so it works out great for me. I made my transducer pole from pvc and use a Ram mount. I have a Ram ball on each side of my boat so that I can use the pole on whichever side that I want. I also have a Ram ball on a C-clamp so that I can take my livescope along while fishing out of my buddy's boat. Whenever we go fishing together, we always have our own livescope while both fishing in the front of our boats.
