MarCum Technologies’ “base model” sonar performs like a luxury cruiser.
Minneapolis, MN – What would you say about an American made ice fishing flasher that exceeded many of the competition’s top-level features, yet carried the economical price tag of an entry-level unit? You’d probably call it a steal, right? And you would be correct.
In the realm of flasher-sonar technology, the MarCum VX-1Pro is an anomaly—a virtual BMW® M6 priced like a Ford® Taurus. At first glance, it seems impossible. The answer, as it turns out, rests within the military-grade engineering built into each MarCum flasher. MarCum’s motto, “One Step Ahead,” might just as well be measured in light-years. Indeed, technology the others call cutting-edge, MarCum considers standard equipment.
For 2010-11, the MarCum VX-1Pro has been enhanced and bolstered with even more features than before. The upgrade starts with a larger, even more potent power source. The VX1-Pro—like its LX-3tc and LX-5 brethren—is now juiced by a powerful 12-volt 9-amp rechargeable battery (New 3-Stage Auto Battery Charger also included.) That’s a jolt of energy that translates to an additional six hours of runtime—nearly another full day on the ice without a recharge. Need we mention that the new, improved battery weighs no more than the old one?
The VX-1Pro features a new tricked-out look, too. Matching MarCum’s other industry-leading flashers, the VX-1Pro now comes neatly tucked inside a Deluxe Padded Softpack. As strikingly red as a slab-crappie’s flared gills, MarCum’s team colors scream dominance on the ice.
“The VX-1Pro packs more fishing power and performance than some of the highest-priced flashers on the market,” says MarCum’s Jon Marshall. “We added even more great new features for 2011, all without increasing retail price a penny. The VX-1Pro also offers MarCum’s patented Interference Rejection System, 1,000-watts of output power, and even a Bottom-Lock Zoom. As American manufacturers, we’re proud that we’re able to control and maintain quality, consistency and functionality in all our electronics products.”
