Short Video Clip of the LX-5 in Action

Its so hard to show how crisp it is over the web but you will get an idea of how she works and how the new colors look. Nothing special, just a quick little clip I put together that is about 40 seconds long. It is a windows media file so you should have no problems viewing it. Don't get your keyboard all slimy from your drool grin.gif

Thanks for the tease smirk.gif. I am waiting for mine and can't wait to give it a go. The reds looked kinda pinkish on the video shocked.gif, are they more red? I hope I like it over than my FL8slt, which has served me quite well, but I like new toys. Never used a zoom on a flasher before.

Sent my Lx3 in for the 3 color update. The green color is the one thing that I did miss when going from the vexilar to marcum. For those that didn't know, marcum will update Old LX3's to true color for 49.00 They are saying 10 to 14 day turn around.

Thanks guys,

Like I said in my first post, its very hard to show how crisp the colors are over the web. As more people get them in their hands, be sure to take a look at one on the ice. You can then see for yourselves how much better these flashers are compared to everything else that is out there.

    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
    • We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet 
    • I’ve only seen that from the air.
