I've had both. Either one is a good unit. Personally I don't think you need to buy the high priced do everything flasher for ice fishing. I currently use the Marcum Tci3 which has plenty of power and does the job I want it too. My Vex Fl-8 was good enough as well. After all its just vertical fishing. Not much to see other than the bottom, your bait and the occasional fish that swims into the cone.
