Wanaflatsfish Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Anyone using them? Any Pics on the install. I just picked up one and it's on the way for install tomorrow...I need an extension arm as my current GPS mount is getting banged by the seat I put on the console over the batteries.

triplec Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 YES! It is absolutely the best I have EVER used...and I am old...and used a lot 🤣 Also they are great to work with. They let me try couple of different arms until I got it jussssst right lol then returned the one I didn't need. Power pole/Stealth Charge kind customer service ha. In case your wondering if they are stable...first pic shot at tad over 50MPH...from an iPhone...but it is a Master Angler so its pretty solid ride ya know 😎 lol I opted for their bigger base to. After talking with Shane there he sent me both. Justin over at Russell Marine had sent me two Lowrance Live units to try in 12 and 9 as I was bad trying to fit the 12 on the dash but couldn't so Shane sent both mounts to try. I like their bigger mount and stayed with the 9" unit. I ran both on the water and it seemed to me the wider base stabilized the Lowrance plastic base a tad more. 9 and above Lowrance units should have aluminum mounts most likely but they don't so I did a hybrid thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWoodham Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Sorry about the turned pics. Mine is the 6’. Triplec, did you mount your on the seadek or is it cut around the base. I was going to do the top of the console with some, but wasn’t sure which way to go. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim33042 Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) I added one using a 6” arm for a 7” garmin. Went all black. Purchased Feb. 2019. One Florida summer left the hardware pretty bleached out. It came loose once, and a screw driver cranked it back down. (I may not have cranked it down as much on my install.) Stout unit, I have recommended it to others. Just noted that my black has sunbleaching. Rather surprised as it was hit with soap and water at the end of the days on the water. Had I known this, I would’ve gone with the ‘silver’. A followup. Emailed pics above to Shane, the issue was covered under warranty and a new unit showed up by my door today.

It actually is covering the many holes from all the previous units there over her 24 years of life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
