Lowrance Temperature Sensor
Lowrance Temperature Sensor — Product description
Enhance your fishing adventures with the reliable Lowrance TS-1BL temperature sensor, a must-have accessory for any serious angler using Lowrance chartplotters and fishfinders. This compact sensor delivers precise water temperature readings straight to your display, helping you pinpoint the ideal conditions where fish thrive. Whether you're chasing bass in shallow bays or tracking tuna in deeper waters, understanding temperature shifts can mean the difference between a slow day on the water and a boat full of keepers.
Why Water Temperature Matters in Fishing
Fish are cold-blooded creatures, and their activity levels spike or drop based on the water around them. Warm water speeds up metabolism, drawing species to feed aggressively, while cooler temps send them into survival mode. The TS-1BL captures real-time data, revealing thermoclines—those hidden layers where temperature changes dramatically and big fish often hang out. Pair it with your sonar returns for smarter lure choices, trolling speeds, and spot selection.
Seamless Integration with Lowrance Systems
Designed for plug-and-play simplicity, this sensor connects effortlessly to a wide range of Lowrance models, ensuring you get accurate temps without complicated setups. It's built tough for marine environments, resisting corrosion and standing up to rough handling on deck.
- Quick installation via standard connector—no soldering or special tools needed.
- Compact design mounts easily on your transducer, hull, or transom.
- Provides continuous monitoring for live graphs and historical data on compatible units.

Pro Tips for Maximum Performance
Mount the sensor in flowing water, away from engine exhaust or aerated spots, for the most accurate readings. Calibrate it against a known thermometer during setup, and watch how surface vs. bottom temps guide your strategy—shad often school where temps match their comfort zone, pulling predators right to you.
Anglers swear by this sensor for ice fishing too, where even a degree or two signals safe ice or active walleye. It's not just data; it's your edge on the water.
What is the Lowrance TS-1BL temperature sensor used for?
The TS-1BL measures water temperature in real-time, displaying it on compatible Lowrance units to help anglers locate fish based on thermal preferences and detect thermoclines.
Is the TS-1BL easy to install on my Lowrance fishfinder?
Yes, it features a plug-and-play connector that matches Lowrance systems, typically mounting on the transducer or hull with minimal tools required.
Which Lowrance models are compatible with this temperature sensor?
It's compatible with models like LCX-110C, LCX-111C HD, LMS-332C, X52, X102C, and many more in the LCX, LMS, and X series—check the full list for your unit.
Can the TS-1BL help find fish in different seasons?
Absolutely. It tracks seasonal temp shifts, ideal for summer striper runs in warm shallows or winter crappie under ice where slight warms draw bites.
How durable is the Lowrance temperature sensor for saltwater use?
Built with marine-grade materials, it resists corrosion from saltwater, UV exposure, and impacts, ensuring long-term reliability on offshore trips.
Does the sensor provide temperature graphs or history?
On supported Lowrance displays, it feeds data for live graphs, trend lines, and historical logs, letting you analyze patterns over time.
Where's the best place to mount the TS-1BL sensor?
Position it in undisturbed, flowing water—often near the transducer, avoiding prop wash, bilge discharge, or bubbles for precise readings.
