Does anyone know the range of the new fox mini Microx X?
Carpology did a youtube video on these alarms on youtube, they mentioned all sorts of features, but not the range. I think this is one on the most relevant things to point out in a video, so the fact that they didn't show this in the video makes me think that it might be poor....

if its 20m then its a no go for me. not because i go that far, but my tent is often behind bushes on on an elevation. If the range really is 20m, that means the signal is too weak for my type of fishing.
The reason why they didnt state the range on the website really worries me.

I really can't see Fox only having a 20m range, they've always had one of the strongest and most reliable receivers, even my old MMXR'S went further than that 15 years ago lol.

Look bang on for the cost
I like the longer ears too, always thought they should make them longer, my only criticism of fox alarms, other than that, been very reliable for me over the years

Cool little alarms i think.
Their basically prologic SMX in different clothes.
I've got the standard ones. Good little alarms for day sessions.

fox dont know their own range....? I quote:
MYSELF---What is the range between the alarm and the receiver?
FOX---Thank you for your question. Microns are always difficult to determine since this is entirely subject to the circumstances.
When around lots of shrubs, trees, etc this can drastically diminish the range. Also if there are power lines nearby or even the weather can have an effect.
We're very for the vague answer but because of all the exceptions it's hard to make solid promises.
MYSELF---The fox rx+ has a certified range in clear circumstances. There should also be one for this model. What is the certified range in clear circumstances?
FOX---Because it is very dependent on the circumstances, we no longer have a certified range for the new microns. If we adhere to a certified range and it is not feasible due to certain circumstances, then we make an empty promise. Our RX + microns have the greatest range, how much this makes a difference with the Mini Micron X cannot be specifically stated.
yes very clear................

I think it's fare enough, I recon most alarm manufacturers would say the same. The RX+'s are top of the range and price, so one would imagine a superior receiver strength compared to the mid range Mini Micron X, hence being more susceptible to vegetation, height, distance etc. I have been a Fox alarm user since the original MMXR's and would confidently use them, unless you are casting out then going home to wait for a bite, the receiver would be good in any sensible fishing situation. Only one way for you to find out if any alarm on the market meets your requirement is to buy a set and try

It is a good question though. Both the RX and the Mini Microns apparently have ‘D-Sensing' technology. Is there actually any difference between them apart from possible longer range?

it only takes a few minutes for 2 guys to turn on the alarms and walk in the opposite direction then stop when there is no signal, Fox could have done this just so they could give you an idea of the range.

It's not about that though. It's the signal strength that is important. You'd be surprised how poorly some perform when there is heavy foliage or other obstructions between the alarms and receiver.

exactly, the rx plus is ridiculous and gives confidence. Obviously you would never been that far away but i guess the knock on effect of having a super stronger signal is that it emits further

It's easy to check range of alarms. My 'cheap' optonic g2's have a range test and they were £120 for 4 about 4 years ago..... would I be more confident using my ntxr or g2's. Tbh they both have great range and both indicate when I get a bite so there's not a lot in it. Yes the ntxr has a better range but who wants to be 200m plus from their rods...

I had the HD5's and sent them back for refund... poor build quality and felt cheap. One of the alarms kept dropping out of range with the receiver even though they were in the same room with brand new batteries. I was massively disappointed and had no confidence in using them.
They are not a patch on the Ace alarms.

I ordered a couple of these as I was curious - nice little alarms.
Build quality wise seem decent, not amazing and definitely not in same league as the new Dells, but seem solid. Not as shiny as they looked in some pictures.
Functions all work well, only criticism are the tones, not brilliant, assuming the speaker is an area they saved money on.
Also no night mode.
They do go LOUD though. Can't test range as didn't get the reciever. Going to be giving these as an xmas gift, but really good bits of kit for the money.

I think it's just the plastic lens being a bit fish eye and distorting the colour slightly. Only really obvious on the low brightness setting when indoors and close up. I'm sure it will be just fine when on the bank.

Easy to set up, four sensitivity options, lowest is a bleep every 3cm and highest is a bleep about every 5mm.
Four LED colour options, LED brightness options, 7 volumes including mute, four tones.
Low battery warning led on alarm and receiver, battery check whenever you turn on the receiver.

Picked up a 3 rod set from my local shop, I think for the price the build quality isn't bad at all, alarms feel sturdy enough, but then I don't abuse my stuff. Receiver a little more plasticy and basic, just one button, plus the pairing button. Just like all Fox alarms, set up is easy, the same as always been done. Alarms and receiver feel tiny compared to my RX, which is what I've been waiting for. Silent on and off, again normal with fox. No anti theft if heads are turned off when the receiver is on. But as said these are a budget mid range alarms with good functions.

Got them and had a play to get some idea of the range. Obviously new batteries in heads and receiver.
Clear line of sight between alarm and receiver - still working at 195m measured before running out of road.
Obstacles between alarm and receiver - 4ft thick laurel hedge, 2 parked cars - measured 80m still working fine.
Across 30 m including 2 trees, some bushes, ping pong table (folded) dog kennel (without dog) + concrete wall - still working fine.
I'd say the range is more than adequate.

I would say the heads look and feel ok, buttons and switch seem positive, battery cover is a good fit. The receiver does look and feel a little cheap, but then again it's not going to be sitting out there in all weather's. My only gripe is the LED's on the receiver could have been bigger and brighter, or have a fish eye lens to enhance them. At the end of the day they are only mid entry alarms.

They look like they should last well enough unless you really abuse your gear.
I dislike having to cycle through the louder volumes to get to a quieter setting, but a thumb over the speaker shuts them up.
They're not competing with top end alarms, but are well worth 200 quid for 3 and receiver in my mind.

Anyone else find it annoying that always one alarm which doesn't tighten down on buzz bar same as others. Swear every set i have, tightens up but facing opposite to others. Means have one which is looser than others and probably slightly different height on buzz bar. Am I being a bit pedantic? Had a set of rx plus too same thing one alarm was different.
Will be using for first time Sunday.

Jag alarm aligner kit

Second the Jag aligners or Chunky "O"'s from Thinking anglers or probably most DIY's there alright for alignment although they do perish and not locked up as tight as Jag kits but they work alrightish.
I always liked my Fox Skypod bars as you could keep the alarm in place and tighten the locking thread to it same as the adjustable collars on the solar bars.

There's a knurled collar on the thread of the alarm that you can move half a turn to fix exactly that problem.

Never understood why buzz bars aren't made with an internal grub screw/allen key adjustment to help line up alarms.

How are people getting on with these?
They certainly have good features like colour adjustment, led brightness adjustment, beep for beep from head to receiver and tone sync from head to receiver all in a small package.

I really like my Mini Microns!
Using them for nearly 4 months now.
Only minor thing is that the battery level on the receiver is very low already.
I fish about 3 nights a week, but still very quick having to change batteries after 4 months.

I reckon so. If you have your alarms switched for 72 hours per session my arithmetic makes it 1296 hours per battery in 4 months. Don't think you can complain at that.

Only challenge I've had with these is getting them aligned perfectly straight up. When I tighten them down, either just the whole alarm, or using the locking ring (I even bought some 3/8 nuts to use instead) - they tend to pull over to one side, presumably from the thread somehow?
I'm probably missing something and these are the first new alarms I've had in ~20 years (replacing my old delkims) so have never seen this before. When I measure on my 3 rod bars, the gap between 1-2 and 2-3 is at best almost 1 cm out. When you have 3 rods out it drives me nuts as mismatch in gap is obvious.
Any ideas?
From bar up I have plastic hockey stick, rubber o-ring, locking nut then alarm.

I didn't notice it on single sticks, but this is now second set of bars I've tried them on (summit first time and gardner now) and has been same issue on both.
I'll try some electrical tape on the thread and see if that helps.

As below, good alarms.
I've probably done 20 nights and days, and the receiver is still showing batteries at 'full' level.
In real life, on the bank, the receiver range is over 200m.

Excellent so far.
Be sure they are turned off before you fit the hard case cover. It would have been good it they would designed the cover so it'd only fit when the switch was in the off position, but again the anglers are the field testers, eh...
I use a girls hair bobble to make sure the cover doesnt come off in my rucky, but if you have them in a buzzer bar case then not an issue.

One of mine packed up last week.
It went a bit croaky then stopped working altogether. I assumed I'd left it on, so confidently whipped the back off and changed the batteries. No such luck. Dead. Waiting to hear from the place I bought them from re the Fox 'warranty'. Fingers crossed.

I've used these in some of mega storms recently and still working fine, fingers crossed just a dodgy one for you and doesn't happen again. value wise, could be best on market. sensitivity still an issue if its really windy even on lowest setting. I had rx+ and they are a different beast, just downsized to save some money. i dont think any other brand matches fox right now on the alarm front. RX+ best out there and micron x best value for money.

I left it in sunshine in 30 degrees, cover off, battery cover off, for three days. No joy unfortunately.

I had a set of three since they came out. I sold them today to a mate for £100. (I paid £170 trade). At first I really liked them. But I've gone through a set of Duracell in the receiver. And a couple of weeks ago one would not turn on. I had to take the batteries out and give them a twiddle, then it suddenly worked again and has been fine since. Maybe it was nothing, but it worried me.
Before I was with Gardner (who wanted me to use ATTS).... I'd always used Fox Microns. I'd never had these problems with any out of RX, DXR, LXR, in donkeys years of using them previously.
They are great for the money, but not for me.
I purchased a brand new unused 4 rod presentation set of NXTR for £350 from a friend the other day. Hopefully these will be more like my old Microns.

I had one from a set of three pack up after about 20 nights of use. The retailer replaced the faulty alarm with a new single unit ... which refuses to pair with the receiver, so the lot's going back. Shame, the functionality is spot on, but they seem to have reliability issues. I'm disappointed.

I bought a 2 alarm set recently. When I got to the Trent and put the batteries in, found the receiver volume did not work.
Reported to supplier but they seem to think it's not a problem. I also bought an additional alarm to make it a 3 rod set but the additional alarm would not sync with the volumeless receiver.
I bought another receiver and the additional alarm sync immediately but the 2 rod set ones dont sync with that receiver.
Looks like Fox do something with the settings for the sets which kind of makes them useless should you develop a fault.
Not buying any else from Total Fishing Tackle ever again! Lost £179 as they wont replace or refund!

They are good little alarms, mine have been fine.
If you have a dodgy set then go back to the retailer and ask them if they've ever heard of the sale of good act and if they are familiar with consumer law.
Tell them they are unfit for purpose and you are rejecting them and insist on a full refund.

Have to agree here. JR have outstanding customer service. Sorted out an issue with my new XD bivvy in no time.
Re: Mini microns. I currently have a set of 3 mini microns that I bought because I turned up to a venue before Xmas for a session and realised my Attx had died after dropping it. No local tackle shops had them in so I bought the mini microns, used for that session and was going to keep them but bought the RX+ set over Xmas. The mini's seem a nice little set and probably the best value for money set out there right now.

It's actually the one thing that puts me off the rx+ if I could turn it off and just have the one tone drop back or not then maybe I would have them as a second set of alarms.
Every alarm beeps drop back or normal run so as soon as you get a drop back it makes a noise get up and look at the alarms like the rest of us? Most of us actually look at the alarms when they make a noise I don't need a tone to tell me it's a drop back

I do really like them but I got to admit I was fishing Stafford moor beatties lake my mate was in the beach swim with the wind coming right across at him and his bobbin wasn't moving but was constantly getting bleeps.
I don't have a favourite alarm though I'm not like everyone else who is either fox or delkim or Nash or what ever other company is fashionable at the time, yes I do have delkims and have had them since the new ones come out about 3/4 years ago and absolutely love them but I will end up buying different ones at some point just because I get bored of having and looking at the same setup for to long, so I will be going rx+ route, the wolfs or something else as a second setup but was put off a little bit with my mates

No false bleeps on my mini micron or mini micron X alarms.
I'm using swingers (much better than bobbins) with a sensible counter weight to suit the conditions, as anyone should.
Too many sheep (watched a superstar) using ultra light bobbins and fishing semi slack when the conditions really dont suit, not enough experience to adapt to the conditions unless their instagram idol tells them to
