Using mine for the first time tomorrow, looking forward to seeing how they perform (assuming I get a bite.....)

Has anyone else noticed a slight discoloration on the led's? Mine seem to have a slight dirty tiny to them, not seen it on other alarms before.

I think it's just the plastic lens being a bit fish eye and distorting the colour slightly. Only really obvious on the low brightness setting when indoors and close up. I'm sure it will be just fine when on the bank.

Easy to set up, four sensitivity options, lowest is a bleep every 3cm and highest is a bleep about every 5mm.
Four LED colour options, LED brightness options, 7 volumes including mute, four tones.
Low battery warning led on alarm and receiver, battery check whenever you turn on the receiver.

Let us know how you get on with these guys, don't need alarms but tempted by these as a set to use whare you wouldn't take expensive kit.

Must be lower quality materials i thought that when I've seen videos they seem cloudy. Having said that 178 quid for a 3 rod set from poingestres isn't breaking the bank so we shall see...that is if i ever get to use them lol. .

Alarm takes two LR1 batteries and the receiver takes two AAA.

Picked up a 3 rod set from my local shop, I think for the price the build quality isn't bad at all, alarms feel sturdy enough, but then I don't abuse my stuff. Receiver a little more plasticy and basic, just one button, plus the pairing button. Just like all Fox alarms, set up is easy, the same as always been done. Alarms and receiver feel tiny compared to my RX, which is what I've been waiting for. Silent on and off, again normal with fox. No anti theft if heads are turned off when the receiver is on. But as said these are a budget mid range alarms with good functions.

Are you sure?
