Default ep-10 vs ep-60 fuel filters

Does anyone know what the difference is? Does anyone have any of these installed to a Lowrance gauge?

the sensor end is the same. The ep-10 has the "old blue" plug, the ep-60 has the "new red" standard nmea 2000
plug (and it could be black, not red). Unless you have the past Lowrance "blue" cable system, buy the ep-60.
Or if you are going to use it on something else (like Garmin), buy the ep-60.
Don't think you can find a ep-10 anyway.

I used the ep-10, and now use the ep-60, with the Lowrance lmf 200 and lmf 400 gauges. They work as advertised.
A good buy if you need what they provide.

just to provide the other viewpoint, i have ep-10's and they are junk and i'm not the only one who thinks so. i believe even some of the proponents will tell you that if they last a year then you've done well. do a search, i've posted my experience with detail. if you decide to chance it, good luck.

I also use the ep 60 with the lms 520c and it was plug and play.

I just installed an EP-60.

I Didn't quite get two full seasons with my EP-10. But it lasted over 700 hours and worked OK till it croaked.
