    What I worry about most is someone removing and stealing my map cards that contain all my data IE map GPS fishing location on the SD card. I have a older humminbird unit with two slots for SD cards. It takes about 3 seconds to open the door on the unit and to pop out the two SD cards and remove them. If I'm by myself and stopping for gas or to use the bathroom I worry that someone could easily steal my map cards and I would not know they were gone until I got to the lake and started using the unit.
    Dang your right about the map cards. I never had thought of that. Yes I have mine backed up on my computer but would sure hate for someone to walk away with all the brushpiles I have marked over the years.

    Well I guess I was raised right because I never thought of messing with someone else's electronics at the ramp or a gas station. What a sad world it is.

    On a side note, I know a guy who switches out his sd cards with empty ones when he leaves the boat at tournaments...LOL

    I take my cards out and clear my units if the boat is going to be out of my possession. A buddy and member here had a HB unit stolen off his boat in bait shop parking lot while he was buying minnows.

    I’m afraid I would be in jail if I got my hands on a thief who stole stuff off my boat.

    I might be and the thief might be in the hospital.

    I use them on all of my electronics. I have a pair on each unit. Bought a 6 pack with matching keys. I do like the fact i can easily take the screen off of my new Garmin tho. No need for elocks on it.

    That's one thing that I don't like about my Garmin. 30 seconds and they are off and gone!
    Can't be good to keep connecting and unconnecting them from the cradle. Lots of issues reported with 93sv plus.
