Mine were out in torrential rain yesterday, and a few weeks back. No false bleeps from rain at all. Occasionally went off when the wind blew a bit of reed into the lines, but id expect that to set them off. You just need to learn to set them up properly. Are you using the response dial on the front?

Of course I'm using the response dial...

This last weekends onslaught of constant false alarming, the previous weekends lost fish due to no indication from the alarms......

TBH, I thought going the Delkim way was the smart choice but...... mmmmmm....



yep, they work well with screamimg takes and in still conditions they let you know of fish in the area.... after that....

I have been out in extreme wind/ rain the lot with the new delkims and not had a problem at all. People just don't no how to set them up and this clearly proves it. I had r3s before these and I couldn't stand them they was worse for wind and rain bleeps I really didn't like them.

I have the r3's at the moment and agree with you. They are ok for what they are but I miss the sensitivity options of delks. When I can afford to do so I will be upgrading to the new delks or the Fox RX alarms.

I am pretty certain that the 'do not disturb' function is for storms, it defaults back to 'off' after 10 or 15 minutes. But having said that, I own TXI-D's and I've never had an issue with false bleeps, you just turn down the response a bit.

Get the Fox alarms, global warming will kill off Delkim.

I can't work out how anyone is saying they're getting bleeps in the rain, I fished last night in torrential heavy rain and wasn't getting any bleeps

I've just returned from a 48Hr session over the weekend using my new TXI D's and not having really used them before, they got seriously tested in some exceptionally torrential rainfall and they didn't miss a beat. Massively impressed with them apart from not being able to adjust the night light brightness, a big leap forward over the TXI Plus for me.

Any particular reason for adjusting night time illumination? I've toned down the night time run illumination to save me from being blinded, but just the night time seems adequate to see where your putting your rod down on.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
