I've got the Elite 7 HDI mounted on my pro-angler.
Things I like:
big LED screen
lower power draw than my old Humminbird 385ci, so longer battery life
good menus, lots of ways to tweak the picture just right
83/200/450/800 transducer works with Hobie's Lowrance Ready system
Dislikes:
Bulky, takes up a lot of space inside my hatch when launching/landing
Screen protector not included
Will need a software update right out of the box, requiring a micro-SD card between 512mb and 1 Gb.
Downscan - I haven't spent the time to get it dialed in yet, but as configured from the factory it's worthless where I fish
Overall, I'm satisfied with my purchase. It has the features I wanted without the excessive features of the other large screen models. Honestly I think it was specifically designed with the serious kayak angler in mind. The resolution on the screen is very good, I have no problem seeing my own baits/sinkers.
