Sonarphone T-Box: can you see the thermocline?

[Sterling]

Thinking of picking up a t-box (http://store12459.americommerce.com/store/p/27-SP200-T-BOX.aspx) and hooking it up to a tablet.

 

My only concern is; will the unit allow me to see the thermocline?

 

Anyone have an idea?

i'd be weary.

 

remember, in life, you get what you pay for.

That's a tough call, there are so many factors that go into if you can see the thermocline or not.

This looks like an interesting piece of electronics. Good luck! I'll follow this thread to see what comments other people offer.

I understand that, but even average units can see thermoclines these days. I just don't know where this particular unit sits.

A buddy of mine was thinking of getting one of these but i steered him towards a cheap humminbird finder instead why kill the battery on your phone in 2 hours when you could just get a ff for a couple hundered?

Even the less expensive models now have awesome detail.

Either way best of luck with whatever you decide and let us know how it goes.

I agree. A decent greyscale unit can be had for under $100 these days. Spend $150 and you can have color.

Thing is, I'm interested in the plot charting (on the fly) made possible by the sonarphone setup. Seeing the thermocline is a bonus!
