With this being two in a row for me, and hearing your issue (which is exactly what my first unit did, it kept cycling on and off), I question the quality of the product. I'm sure more units work well than dont, but two for two on my end is enough for me to never buy Lowrance again. On the plus side for you, their customer service is friendly and they will replace yours without issue under warranty. The problem is, we shouldn't have to be replacing a unit due to defect. The more I read into it, the more I am hearing regarding their DSI systems having problems.
