Can this unit be used on lakes in the United States or anywhere?

The 546/546s comes with a preloaded base map of all U.S. coastal areas. The 536/536s comes with a base map of US Inland Lakes.I am not sure if the Garmin BlueChart V2 Vision SD cards for US Lakes can be used with the 546/546s but it can be used with the 536's

It will work anywhere that Garmin has charted. See their inventory of charts - Lake Michigan yes, Lake Woebegone unlikely.

It is likely that as a burner it can be used in any nation as long as it is not on the list of restricted technology, which it is not likely on. However, you need to contact the manufacturer to determine if it can be a player of commercial DVD's or Blue Rays in any nations besides the USA. It might have hardware coding specific to each nation, although I can't say with certainty things are still done that way, it is worth checking specifically. Remember commercial DVD and BluRay content is copyrighted to each national market.

i dont believe you can, it should say in the instructions but i wouldnt put it in water you can probably skim over the water and it would work. it has worked very well on dry land

No it will not. You will have to get a Lake Master chip. Most of those are very good and sometimes better than the Navionics. Depends on the body of water.

Yes, this will work in a lake. The anchors are small bags you load with rocks which you tie to the net. The materials are strong. Ours lasted the entire summer and is stored for use next season.

Mary Ann Sheets, the unit is not suitable for anything other than high and dry service. To expand on your original question, the unit is not splash resistant or submersible. It will not survive temperature extremes. I would not leave it in the hot sun and I would protect it from freezing.

Hi there - No it can not. It's clearly stated that it is NOT to be used for water in the Instruction Guide. Hope that helps. : )

Yes, we used this in the ocean but pulling it would require more power when the water becomes choppy as the waves gets considerably higher; as compared on lakes which would be a smoother ride.

Don't know. My only use was for an outside fresh water falls and pond. Works great there.

It is a cute unit however it does not have a bunch of power to lift the water more than the 4-5 in tube it comes with. Additionally as I said in my review it needs direct sunlight ( not cloud filtered) to opperate. There is no stoage battery so the second the sun goes away it stops. May work in Hawaii California or Florida, but not too well in Washigton state, for obvious reasons! If you have abudunt sunlight and the rise in the lighthouse is minimal it -may- work; personally I would get a small 110v pump for that kind of project. I know the wiring can be cumbersome but in the long run I think you would be happier...... good luck!

Yes, you can!! We use it in big and small areas (around the house perimeter, and then surrounding specific areas, like pool, flower beds and so on). I works great!

It certainly could be used at the beach or lake. My husband bought it after his double knee replacement surgery because it is extra high and easy to get in and out of. We're using it outside in front of our camper.

In the lower states it can, but in the northern states, multiple simultaneous users, it will be overloaded. If you can afford a 3,700 square foot home, then you can place a unit in each appropriate demand zone and be very glad you did. I love mine, live in KY, get great supply when the water is above 60 degrees, and then it slows the flow as the temperature drops. I have dishwasher, washing machine, garden tube, 2 showers, 3 sinks and 4 people. It is better than great in the summer, okay spring and fall, and we are conservative in the winter.

As far as the unit itself, no reason it can't be used outside. The legs are not very strong but depending on where in the U.S. you live, don't see a problem.

I don't know about that I only use it in my pond. You might try contacting the manufacturer.
