I am trying to figure out how I can use my HD5 unit as a gps for ice fishing, I have looked at some past threads, but just wondering if there is a specific power cable I would need or not? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

My Hds 7 is mounted on a Genz pack for the winter. I just got an extra standard power cable and a 9amp flasher Batt. It works great and I love having the big screen for gps on the ice. Make sure to put a in-line fuse on just in case.

You had an HDS 7. You’re not getting it back.
