It is the only backpack electrofisher to have a built in Universal Serial Bus port to download all electrofishing data while also allowing the upload of new software.

It is the only electrofisher with on-screen active waveform visualization, graphs of output performance, GPS coordinates, and alarm mode to inform about user-defined effort limits. It is the only backpack electrofisher with onboard tutorials describing voltage, duty cycle, and frequency outputs to educate users while in the field about appropriate electrofishing settings.
