Lowrance Elite-5 Ti Review

Lowrance Elite-5 Ti | Review

 

The Lowrance Elite-5 Ti – matches a Lowrance 5″ SolarMax display and easy-to-use touchscreen controls with premium sonar features and powerful performance, at a very affordable price. The resolution runs  800 x 480, is pretty bright, and has good viewability from all angles.

Excellent Charts & Mapping – include a built-in worldwide base map plus C-MAP charting covering 11,000 lakes and U.S coastal areas along with support for a bunch of additional third-party chart options like premium C-MAP and Navionics.

WiFi and BlueTooth – is built-in for optional control of Power-Pole® Shallow Water anchors, remote control, SonicHub2 marine audio, Network Analyzer, and Service Assistant integrated service tools.

Support for NMEA0183 – is also included for data sharing between NMEA0183 legacy devices. The Elite Ti is not networkable for sharing sonar. You would have to move up to the Elite Ti2 which has sonar sharing via WiFi.

The Built-In Sonar includes a high-performance 500-watt CHIRP Sonar, DownScan, and SideScan all within one TotalScan transducer.

Lowrance also added an excellent new feature called FishReveal Smart Target View. FishReveal makes fish easy to see by combining Downscan imaging and Traditional sonar on one easy-to-use screen for excellent target separation between fish and structure.

*The Elite-5 Ti does not support – SmartSteer Motoguide Xi5 Trolling Motor Control or NMEA2000 for engine data.
