Thinking that meself.
The old ones were on the larger side of alarms. Just hope they have solved the issues a few suffered.

Where \ how do you adjust the sensitivity on these new alarms. The sensitivity dial seems to be missing?

Think it has been said you do it with the receiver

I love Delkims and have had my TXi's for many years without fault ..... but i cant help feeling a little dissapointed with these new ones. Not different/radical enough for me to change
How long is the warranty on delkim as I see this new one says 3 years (optional)

Sensitivity is now called response and is controlled by the R wheel. There is no longer a +&- switch. You adjust how many bleeps you want the alarm to make for a given amount of line, called bleep speed.
Think of it like this, on the old alarms you are fishing a snag, hit and hold stuff, so you want a high level of sensitivity. So you set the switch to + and turn up the sensitivity. Now the alarm with sound with only a tiny amount of line movement, but the trade off is it will sound like a full on screamer at that sensitivity when in fact it's hardy any line movement. The classic delkim sensitivity.
Now go over to the new alarms with the same situation. This time you set the response to high, meaning you get an indication with a tiny line movement, just as before, but this time you turn the bleep speed down so it only omits a single bleep for that amount of line movement. So now you've got the same sensitivity as before but without the crazy run noise for tiny movements. Bleeps speed is cycled with a button press on the alarm.
You can also adjust the receiver so it registers single bleeps and short runs on the led assigned to the head, as normal, but once there is an actual run, all leds light up to give you a bit of extra light to get your boots on. If you want this feature.
