Over the years, we’ve had a few people contact Anglers’ Net in search of a replacement sonar for their Humminbird SmartCast. They were advised to contact Humminbird directly.
Now, however, it’s possible to order one online and have it delivered direct to your door.
So, if a pike has snaffled yours, you’ve lost it up a tree or it’s just stopped working, please click here.
Here’s what we’ve read about the Humminbird SmartCast Remote Sonar Sensor RF45E:
The Humminbird Smartcast remote sonar sensor replacement unit will work with all the Smartcast fishfinder units.
When used with the RF15E, RF25E or RF35E it offers increased performance as well.
It uses an internal transducer to collect data which it then transmits wirelessly to the display in real time.
New features include a flashing light inside which can be turned on and off for night fishing and A/B channel capability so two units can be used in the same area without crossing signals.
Increased depth capability and water surface temperature readings are also included.
– water surface temperature
– night fishing capability with flashing light
– 4 level gray scale capabilities (with RF15e only)
– extended battery life
– programmable A/B channels
– 35m (120ft) depth capability
Specification
Depth – 35m (120ft) with RF10e, RF20e and RF30e.
Channels – A/B channels
Light – On/off selectable flashing light
Battery life – 500 hours in water (light off)
Water temperature – Yes with RF15e, RF25e and RF35e.
Note:
The Smartcast RF10e, RF20e and RF30e units cannot utilise the additional depth capability or temperature readings of the RF45e, as their displays are not configured to show that information.
However, you can still take advantage of the night fishing light and two channel capability.
This unit is not intended for ice fishing or use in below freezing temperatures.
