As the title... I'm. Looking for some mid priced alarms. Not interested in txis or R3s. I can't justify the price for the amount of time I'm actually on the bank

Couple of must haves....

Sensitivity control
Reciever function

Mini micron x 👍🏽 I have 2 individuals, didn't get the receiver but can do at a later date. I can't fault them and reasonable price too.

Think you can get a set plus receiver for just over 200, they all come with plastic covers and are easy to use.

Stacks of Fox buzzers on Ebay, new and used. 2 and 3 rod setups.

Mini Micron X looks a good deal.

Have you had any issues with the cases splitting on the JRC alarms when screwing the alarms onto your buzbars/banksticks? I had 4 of the C2 alarms, and 2 of the cases separated down the join line when attaching to buzbars/banksticks. Admittedly, I am always changing from pod (for carp) to banksticks (catfish & pike), and was probably being a bit heavy handed.

Any issues like this?

I would get the new Fox Mini Micron X all day long. If I was after a roller buzzer I don't know why you would pay more, they seem to do everything you would need.

In green or blue if you like brighter led s as orange is a bit disappointing in the traffic light set
Are you sure?
