Sidekick™ Wi-Fi Sonar with 12° Ice-Ducer & Float
The Sidekick™ is Vexilar's wireless sonar transducer. It connects via WiFi with the Vision X10 head unit or directly with your phone via the Sidekick by Vexilar App. Allowing you to remotely monitor the action with real-time sonar from up to 300ft away. Choose between a 2D Scrolling Sonar or Flasher view, or even use it as a split-screen option. Connect up to 4 Sidekicks to the Vision X10 or a single Sidekick to your phone. Integrate the Sidekick with the Vexilar Thermal Tip-up and receive flag alerts when you get a bite. You can also attach the Sidekick to the accessory Ice Base to actively fish or the Mounting Plate for use in a wheelhouse.
For the first time, you can monitor your tip-ups and set lines from a distance with sonar feedback. Easily identify which Sidekick you are watching by the colored outline on your screen, which matches the LED indicator on each Sidekick. If you don’t want to receive sonar data, but you still want flag alerts, you can also use the Sidekick without the transducer.
Easily adjust your depth range and gain for the best display reading. You can also customize the name of your Sidekick units and the color of the LED light indicator.
The Sidekick comes with a 12 Degree Ice Ducer, float, stopper, USB charging cable, and transducer connector cap.
Features:
*The Sidekick does NOT float on its own.
