Lowrance HDS 5 on sale - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

jettytaco · 09-04-2014, 07:28 AM

I was looking around to buy a fish finder and found this price pretty good. Thought I would share with you guys. The 2 year warranty is only 50 bucks too due to the sales price. $399 plus 50 bucks for 2 year came out after after a little under $500. May have to call into customer service for 2 year warranty since website doesn't reflect lower warranty price due to on sale price.

I bought one with the extended warranty on Sunday.

If the higher price warranty gives you the full price credit on exchange, that might be worth it.

What is the difference?

That's HDI, little bit different than the HDS. The age old argument of HDI vs HDS vs DSI.
