Garmin LiveScope 2 Transducer - LVS44

Garmin LiveScope™ 2 HD Transducer (LVS42HD) - Ultra High-Definition Live Sonar with No Black Box Required

Experience the clearest live sonar Garmin has ever created with the Garmin LiveScope™ 2 HD Transducer (LVS42HD). Designed for serious anglers who demand unmatched underwater visibility, the LiveScope 2 HD delivers crystal-clear, real-time sonar with up to 50% more detail and 20% higher resolution than previous generations. Whether you're targeting bass, crappie, walleye, or offshore species, you'll see fish, structure, and your lure with incredible clarity and precision.

Unlike previous LiveScope systems, the LVS42HD connects directly to compatible Garmin chartplotters, eliminating the need for a separate black box. Installation is faster, cleaner, and simpler while maintaining lightning-fast sonar processing that lets you watch fish react to your presentation in real time.

With expanded coverage in Forward, Down, and Perspective Modes, plus bottom tracking out to 125 feet, LiveScope 2 HD gives anglers a wider, more detailed view of what's happening beneath and around the boat. Integrated water detection automatically powers down the transducer when it's out of the water, while the built-in temperature sensor provides accurate water temperature readings.

Pair the LiveScope 2 HD with compatible Garmin chartplotters to unlock over 15 vivid color palettes for enhanced target separation and image clarity. It also integrates seamlessly with the Garmin Spy Pole™ for independent sonar control and OneVü™ Sonar when combined with the GT360UHD, creating an incredible 3D-style view of your underwater environment.

Whether you're fishing tournaments or simply want the most advanced live sonar technology available, the Garmin LiveScope 2 HD provides the detail, speed, and performance needed to locate more fish and make every cast count.
