Tempted by these. In recent years had Fox NTX-r and the new RX+ but swapped to Nevs for the simplicty and after teething problems with the RX+ on an early batch. The Fox were excellent alarms otherwise and the Nevs work just fine.

Can any one using the new Delks and in particular if you have experience with Nevs tell me if there are any features that are really useful over the Nevs?

Only get false beeps on the Nevs in heavy gusts. Hate false beeps with a passion but haven't heard of anyone compaining about this on the new Delks.

You can set DND to be on continuously instead of just 15 mins by holding down PB2 and PB3 until you hear a beep. And yes, they'll only register a proper run when it's set.

I got a set this morning and I don't know what the fuss is about them being complicated. Yes, they have far more features than most alarms but it took less than 30 mins to set everything up from scratch, now I'm confident I can adjust most things on the bank without checking the instructions again.

to learn everything by heart, set and experiment/test the settings, try everything out that's possible, yes half an hour!!!!! but to be honest I think I played for 2 hours because I wanted to know all the possibilities and liked doing it.

toys for boys!

To open the boxes, fit the batteries, read the instructions, pair them all up to the receiver and change the settings to how I want to start, yes.

Are you being dramatic, as though it's going to take half an hour every time I turn them on? Because all I'll do on Thursday is turn them all on and I'm ready to fish. Everyday stuff is a button press or turn of a dial.

30 mins is bugger all. Once you have them how you want them thats it switch them on them on then switch them off when you go home. Its hardly difficult. You dont have to anything if you dont want to, just leave them as factory settings and pair them to the receiver. Piece of @@@@

Your set them up to your liking, play around with the new settings. Then all your use is the sensitivity and volume. Like all the other alarms you've had.

Just done a 48hr session with the txi-d. It was pouring rain for most of it, and 40mph wind last night which made the lake look like the North Sea!. The alarms were spot on, I only had 1 bleep through the storm last night/this morning.The night mode with the slimlites looks sweet too. Shame I didn't catch but you can't have it all

I'm well happy with them and will sell my R3's now.

Anyone used fishernator?

Edit read below see a couple have used them. Problem is if there's an issue you cant just take it back to the shop and swop it which i did a few years ago when i bought txi,s. One was faulty , took it back straight swop. I suppose you can send off to Delkim but them no alarm for a week.

it's crazy that Delkim are exporting alarms which are then being sold to UK customers undercutting UK retailers for import back into the UK. Don't for one second blame anyone buying them though

Yep shown as £400 at fishernator for set of 3 and receiver delivered. They have to be making a decent profit on that so UK selling at £550 a set is a huge mark up on top.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
