Garmin LiveScope black box

Where is everyone mounting the black box at? I was thinking about mounting it in my rod box but read somewhere that it should be mounted in a well ventilated area plus I would have to open the rod box to see what to see what lights are on. Thought about mounting it on the side of boat but then the cable terminals would be facing up and if the cover came off water would get in them. Or would I be better off finding a place to mount it flat on the deck? Just wondering where everyone was mounting it. Thanks.

Put mine on floor cubbie hole under front deck . Figured water on bottom of boat keep it cooler .

I was told water don't hurt the black box but heat will. Got to have ventilation

Put mine under my console on the side so my big feet don’t get into the wires , it’s out of the sun and should stay cool so far so good

Wall of a front storage locker under the front deck. I never look at the lights as I found no reason to do so as it works flawlessly. Hiding the wiring was much easier also. Out of sight, out of mind.
