In this day and age of saving energy too, bit short sighted, even if it just a led

It's not a biggy but not being a fan of using night lights or advertising my presence it'd put me off them...suppose a bit of electrical tape would do the job.

It would put me off looking out over my rods and the first thing you see is a set of glowing lights from your alarms - may only be me, but the only time I want to see them lit up is fairly obvious...

Sort of beats the point of having them there in the first place then - what if in the one in a million chance you get a run??

You mean the electrical tape, don't need a led I'm not deaf
I'm like you, only want to see a led on a take...but have to admit it's been decades since I last put my night lites on.....might try it for the hell of it now just to remind me....you're evil

Never had a illuminated hanger either, though strangely lately I've been drawn to the old Fox Euro ones, nostalgia as my friends had them.

Back to the Delks, got to say the vid explaining the features of the EV-R is one of the better ones I've seen. They've got to be worth a punt with a 4 year warranty, similar reasoning for me trying Wolf Qis.

the night marking is really faint similar to a isotope...its very subtle and hardly going to alert anyone.to.ypur presence

It's not that I'm bothered about not being seen, I'm imagining that it'll spoil your night vision, I've never had a 'nighlight' so don't really see the need, it's put me off getting a set, I'm staying with my Nev's..

Thanks for all the responses..

They don't spoil your night vision at all. They are nowhere near bright enough to do that, they are a dull glow

not a fan of the new delks feel abit too small and fiddly ,loved the original txi design looked amazing and very easy to use then txi plus came out and was a big step up but didnt look as good , good to see the EV is back but its not very budget at £450 remember the EV plus being £50 each , started using my original txi,s again this season still work perfectly and look great

i have said they need to bring back the original mk1 style. They were not having any of it. I think they would sell very well, same cases just updated with latest digital tech and "robotic waterproofing coating technology" lol

one negative ive found so far, the power button stands out prominent and can be turned on in your buzz bar bag if something rests against it...it should have been counter sunk

yep, the button petrudes instead of being counter sunk so if anything pushed against the hatdcase it turns on
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
