Elite 7 transducer switch

[kseye]

Just ordered a second transducer for my elite 7 for the trolling motor. Does anyone know of a selector switch for these down scan transducers?

Kseye, I guess you have your elite 7 transducer on the transom and want to put the new transducer on the trolling motor. This is what I have on my Panfisf 17. These can be bought from Lowrance and work great. I think it is a SB-9BL .Have you used the Elite yet? I am interested too.

I totally gutted and rebuilt the interior of my 16ft lowe and installed it two weeks ago. I took it out to local city lake and was impressed. My brother has the hds8 and i think the down on this model is just as good and a lot less money. How does the down scan work on your trolling motor? By the way I was email lowrance about the switch when you replied. I will let you know what they say.

Kseye, I have not bought the Elite model, yet, I have the HDS 7 Gen 2 . Structure Scan is too costly and the only gain is SI. Will probably sell the HDS and buy the Elite 7. The HDS models come with 83/200 transducers, HST-WSBL , which is what you will probably want.This will give you 2D in 83 and 200 on split screens. Go to Lowrance website, under Elite 7 , accesserories, under switch boxes.I really like the new units and they have a 7 inch screens Any other info is appreciated.. Thanks
