Lowerance x65 problems

[cman]

Are they really that bad? I have never had any lowerance products. always Hummingbird. Has anyone else had any experience with them?

cman,
I don't own an x65, but a 330c and a 332c. I have returned the 330c twice and now the 332c is at Lowrance still under warranty. I have had the same problem with the units turning on by themselves and flashing erraticly. At the very least, this is a major inconvenience. If I knew for sure that Eagle was less problematic, I would switch manufacturers. Best of luck!

Thanks for the tips. I have a 350gps combo that I love so far. As for the x65 I think I will switch it out with the hummingbird300tx on my old boat. I know it works great. It doesn't seem to help me catch more fish but man it looks cool. LOL
