Can get the new Fox Mini Micron X on Fishdeal 3+1 for £190, bit of a bargain compared to other sites.
If you dont mind 2nd hand you could probably get a set of Nevs or ECU's for that money.

Gerry, How long have you had the prologic BAT alarms and how many times have you used them.
I have to wonder as it wasn't so long ago you were saying the jrc radar alarms were the very best bargain and swore by them.

You used them once and they were so good you replaced them
I'd say att, tlb or delkim. Not because they're any more durable (though they actually are) but all are serviceable products.
Nevs will beep for ever, but having snapped one off a bank stick and never owned any that haven't cracked from being looked at the wrong way I couldn't call them durable

ive decided on a halfway house scenario. I'm opting for two tlb + that pair to a deluxe receiver.. and keeping back 2 green atts iw... that way i have 4 alarms that will all pair to a receiver, two atts that are 2 magnet for river fishing and canal.. and then the tlb's cover my lake fishing and have the sounder on the alarm.. so i cover off reliability and sensitivity..im sold on atts but dont like the single point of failure for sound on all 3 rods. most likely i will fish two tlb+ with receiver majority of time and then a third atts rod where applicable

engineers hate bottle necks and singlr point of failure all three rods on atts gear , receiver goes its home time.. unless your taking spare receiver of course.

I've got the original tlb's (no receiver) and I love them. Bought them second hand and they seem almost indestructible. They don't have any ‘features' but ‘features' are overrated. Imo of course.
