Looks good, Does the Raymarine allow you to have the Voltage on the display?

Not that I have noticed. I've never worked it before tbh and only flashed it up twice to confirm power and card . I will flash it up now and check.

Hi again. No voltage shown as far as I can see just the screen settings chosen for my needs. Supplied voltage is shown on my power panel which is normally 12.6v. On the side of my case is a power panel with volt meter, 2 x USB connectors, 12v. Cigarette plug connector. and on/of switch.

If it's anything like Lowrance, you can go into settings and alter what shows on the screen. I usually just have depth, speed and voltage showing.
