Pros

Very happy with this purchase. Literally, it is that easy. One thing to be mindful of.

Great product for the price. Lets me keep track of the commercial boat traffic on the cuyahoga river in the flats and lake erie area. We also carry it one the dingy when some goes off ship at anchor.

Uses a 12v outlet (cigar lighter). Only issue i have is that it comes with a cigarette charger.



Cons

The only way to charge the rechargeable batteries is by plugging it into a cigarette lighter. Tried to use it while plugged in, did not charge.

    Its good enough for a kayaker and i highly recommend this to any kayaker or go for the same one but the atlantis 275 which has more bells and whistles and dcs and gps feature might not forget the uniden atlantis 275 requires an mmsi
