Possibly don't know but name an alarm that doesn't have problems, time will tell but all all I can say is if they play up or go wrong for £80 I'm not going to have a melt down will just return them.

I seem to remember multiple problems in a very short time. Think it might have been euroboybobbin who had them and got shot pretty quick

Seen that he had HD5's one did not connect out the box and the others had poor signal?

I've not had that issue with the HD3's so can only comment on my findings, like I say for £80 for two heads and a receiver I'm not overly bothered they are a cheap set of alarms that I bought as a 5th set for a two rod set up that will be thrown in the side pocket of the holdall and probably get knocked about, saves the ECU's two sets of Fox NTXr's and Fox MX microns getting destroyed .

Yeah something like that, I know his gamble backfired quite a lot. 5 sets of alarms? Love a toy then lol. I've only 2 sets and one of those is only for nostalgia

I use fox rx micron digital..bought about 10 years ago..and I love em..I use the vibration setting when snag/locked up fishing...switch between roller wheel or vibration..lots of choices..wasn't a fan of delkims for a couple of reasons..cant believe that fox doesn't incorporate this feature in their new alarms..I fished with a friend with delkim txi's and we compared loads of tests and the fox could be set more sensitive than a delkim...rain will set a delkim off but a fly would set my fox's off if on the sensitive setting...when its windy I just switch back to roller wheel...I've often seen these for sale on ebay 3+ sounder box...faultless.
Are you sure?
