As much as I want to disagree with you (my first set of proper alarms after early optonics) I also suffered the phantom screamers!

Ah... the original Fox mini microns, I seem to remember most were spot on, but a small dodgy batch came into the UK with a certain fault, involving a T1 diode on the circuit board, I believe, what happened was that they soaked up any moisture inside the buzzer case like a sponge and dissolved itself, and caused all sorts of issues, including screaming runs, and the latching red led that never turned off

Original ones were great. I had a set for nearly 10 yrs and never missed a beat. About the only fox item I have praise for

For me fox alarms are the best going 
I've had a few sets and they have never really let me down. I had some RXs where the wires went brittle and I snapped them, currently using 4 x STRs
I had one set of delks, sold, cheap plastic bling for me

I had a set of the originals, in fact I still have one of them (I gave two to a youngster who was starting out) as a back up. They never missed a beat.
I saw the new ones the other day, they look very good, nice and small and neat, If I didn't have a set of Nevilles that I recently had refurbed I would probably buy a set.

I've got a set of two for the canal, and they're incredible for £30!

Well that escalated quickly! It seems they're too new for a proper review of them, I'll likely just get a set as they seem ideal for what I want. Not usually a fan of Fox gear, I just hope there's no teething problems with this new model as they seem the right size and price.

It's nothing to do with being a delkim fan. I had a set, they were crap, I got rid of them. This was all before I was using delkims. They were my first set of alarms made by anyone other than optonics. Sold them and got bitech vipers

Bitech Vipers. There's a blast from the past. I had a set too. Good alarms but the sounder box was crap! Was mid 90's though.

I never had a Sounder with them, man they were loud and very over sensitive. Bloody good alarms for predator fishing though
