I have had no problem with Lowrance Customer Service answering my questions when I have called. If you decide to get a HDS unit, save yourself some hassle and get it from a reputable dealer (Cabelas, BPS, Gander Mountain, or your local mom and pop store / marina). Before you buy a new unit off eBay, calll Lowrance directly and find out if that unit will be covered by the warranty. Then make your decision based on their answer.

The HDS unit I have is wonderful. I have had really good results with it. I don't think you will regret getting a HDS unit. Below is the information to Lowrance:

Hope it helps.
