Expect a new Livescope 2.0 Announcement Soon…

I just talked to a Garmin rep and he said next release is two years out. I think I’m gonna pull the trigger on the 34 soon.

I just built another garmin livescope in a bundle in the last 30 days and called garmin rep twice with questions and both reps told me the same thing when i asked whats coming out new and both told me nothing new in the near future. so time will tell. i have a 106 and a 126 with the lvs34 and i cant see needing anything better at this point

Do you expect Sales Reps for a company who most likely have signed NDA’s on releasing new product info would tell a customer to not buy their products right now and wait?

Garmin does a great job keeping their new product launches secret until they are ready to go…

I shouldn’t have said Garmin rep. I talked to one of the largest Garmin dealers. He has direct contact with the head product people at Garmin and asks about releases before they make big orders. If Garmin lies to them and makes a release after they make a huge order they will be burning key relationships.

Got any recommendations on shuttles and poles Joe? You seem pretty in tune with the livescopes. I think im gonna go with a whole new 34 system and just sell my 32 package. I figure the cost should work out about the same vs just buying the 34 ducer for my existing set up.

Ya I wouldn’t be holding my breath for a new Livescope announcement. And if they do announce something, I wouldn’t think the consumer would have their hands on it until end of 2025

The new HD Innovations stuff looks really good…its from the same guy who designed the Summit stuff and left and started his own company

Buddy just picked up the HDI setup and I was impressed. Shuttle is like most but the telescoping carbon fiber pole is slick. Tempted to upgrade my factory Humminbird pole in favor of the HD. And their pricing seems reasonable.

Humminbird Mega Live 2 will be announced in the USA on 12/9

My son just said that Scheels is coming out with a killer deal on the garmin livescope. I cannot remember the details but it was cheap. Full setup. I told him I am not going to buy another different brand since I already have 2 and he said well get the active target 2 for the lowrance. Well, my head units arent compatible with that.

That deal is out $1700 for a Garmin 9″ with the old 32 transducer.

Thanks for the tip on the HDI stuff Joe. I ordered the shuttle, pole, bag and ducer cover. I am going to buy the 34 system and head unit locally.

Now I just gotta sell my used 32. Just in time for the $1,800 scheels sale…

yeah, I already have Summit stuff otherwise i’d get the HDI, the ability to get at the battery area with 2 thumbscrews is nice…

Sweet good luck with the purchase guys. My son is going to make me spend a ton of money now that he works there LOL
