No link, it was an email sent to me by name. I presume they are being sent to the customers they have on file.

Just had a look at what they are offering, max £50 a head or receiver so not that good versus flogging them yourself.

Be better off selling them and putting the money towards a new set. £50 a unit they are offering for TXI's and receiver

I got the email. Nothing wrong with my TXI+ so no need to upgrade. Interesting offer though.

They are doing all they can to keep their service department fully occupied.

I don't know if it's just me but the new d alarms just don't sound like a Delkim. My old man has a set, they've been reliable (except a battery drain on the receiver, which was replaced by the shop easily enough) but they don't sound quite right to my ear.

that would depend on how he has the beep speed set to the warble you get,put the box they're exactly the same tone and warble as the older version

I have no idea, he's in his 70s and I set them up about a year ago, no idea what I did, don't think I changed anything and I'm certain he hasn't.

I think the Tone setting wheel on the older versions was more sensitive. e.g you could get exactly the tone you wanted where with the newer digital adjustment, there is a slight compromise.
Don't want to turn this into an 'older vs newer' thread, but the dial adjustment is way too stiff on the new ones.
I'd be interested to pick up one manufactured recently.

I got the email last Friday. I was a bit surprised as I haven't had my TXI+,s for ages, having sold them years ago.

Their database must be quite extensive, and as such could result in a massive financial outlay if everyone took them up on the offer. Plus what would they do with a massive mountain of old kit as the 2nd hand prices would plummet
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
