Garmin LiveScope 2 LVS44 Transducer

The Garmin LiveScope 2 LVS44 Transducer is the long-range specialist of Garmin's all-new LiveScope 2 Series, purpose-built for open-water scouting and covering more water than any previous LiveScope generation. Building on the proven technology of the LVS34 LiveScope Plus, the LVS44 delivers 20% more resolution and 25% more range, extending scanning capability out to 250 feet from the boat. This makes it the perfect choice for anglers chasing pelagic species, working large impoundments, and scouting bigger open water where fish and structure can be hundreds of metres away from the vessel.

A major hardware shift in the LiveScope 2 Series is the elimination of the external GLS 10 black box, with sonar processing hardware now integrated directly into the transducer itself. This means the LVS44 connects straight into a compatible Garmin chartplotter and power source, dramatically simplifying installation, reducing cable runs, cutting failure points, and cleaning up the console. The direct-connect design means fewer components on the boat and easier upgrades from older LiveScope systems.

Smart sensors handle the details automatically - integrated water detection shuts off sonar transmission the moment the transducer leaves the water to prevent overheating, whilst a built-in temperature sensor delivers live water-temp readings straight to the display. Ghost Reject technology now works in all modes (Forward, Down, and Perspective) rather than being locked to Forward orientation only, and wider sonar angles across all three modes deliver expanded coverage for finding fish and structure faster. Compatible with 15+ vivid colour palettes on modern Garmin chartplotters for personalising the view to match preferences and conditions.

Purpose-built for anglers chasing Aussie species including barramundi in impoundments and open water, Australian bass and yellowbelly across large dams, plus offshore work targeting pelagics and reef species where covering distance from the boat matters, the LVS44 delivers the range and resolution serious anglers demand. A trolling motor barrel mount and adjustable Perspective Mode mount are included, both tool-free for fast changes between fishing techniques.
