I currently have a basic 24 volt bow mount, and was thinking of up grading to a model that can follow contour and spot lock, I was considering a used unit but I mostly see 36 volt units is there any particular reason for this?
Just a hunch, but probably tournament anglers.
Mine has been bulletproof. Some of the ulterra’s have documented issues but the terrova’s are great.
I am guessing that they are not the newer Quest model for sale and people are just upgrading.
People upgrade, but I’d also assume those 36’s don’t sell as fast as the 12 and 24’s. The only ones wanting 36 is people with boats built for that many batteries.
The Ulterra Quests are very good as well and mine was bulletproff last season as well, There are likely alot of 36 volt motors on the used market because people are going to Quest systems when they can and then sell their older 36 volt motors.
36v are for big boats. Big boat guys buy new and not used. Lol I’m totally guessing but it sounds good
And some guys are switching to different brands for FFS
Can’t imagine a life without a 36 volt. That’s me though ! See if the brushless motors change my mind someday .
As mentioned above-new models, different brands, and people moving to cable drive units are all reasons.
I think people with 24v systems are not the type upgrading to the latest and greatest.
If you want contour following, make sure it has ilink. I’ve had it for 6 years and tried it a few times, but didn’t care for it because it isn’t precise enough for me.
