Yes I use it with my RF 20. The only thing is that you cannot use all of the new features with the RF 20. There are some extra features with the new RF 45 that work with the other newer displays.

is positively buoyant (is buoyant under its own weight plus 0.2 ounces of bait and lead weight.) The maximum amount
of weight for any attachment to the RSS is approximately 0.2 ounces (5.67 grams), and includes the combined
weight of any hook, line, weight, swivel/snap swivel and bait that is attached to the RSS. The RSS itself weighs 1
