All everyone's harping on about is changeable leds! Really is it that important. It's certainly lost on me

From the pics I saw yesterday I thought they were going to look quite ropey, but to be honest in the flesh they look a lot better.

They have so many features it made my head spin, I just wouldn't use half of them, I think they are definitely one for the youngsters. There's just so many button presses to cycle through so many options.

What I would say is the thieft alarm is a good upgrade. When you actually have the new sensitivity settings explained to you it does make sense, especially for new delkim users, but for existing users there's no doubt going to be a learning curve as they are going to require a new way of setting them up.

I think for a middle aged old git like me I will stick to txis.

Why not have the option. Some people want to change every now and then. Ringtones on phones, backgrounds on computers etc. it's nice to have the option if you want it. Wether people would use it or not, what difference would it have made was it an option?

I would crack on, if I had the option to.

But I will continue to not be so critical of other people's opinions.

In all fairness on the LED changing thing, don't think it would be a deal breaker or a deal clincher, but as quite a few alarms have the ability to change the LED colour, then why not.

and for Gerry, if you have different colour bobbins for different weights and or light conditions then surely you would have to have the LED's matching, every good angler knows that FFS.

Was told today that they no longer have the characteristic delkim sound, they sound just like any other buzzer.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
