Having just seen the social media introduction to these on carpology page these look a v.good and well thought out piece of kit don't they? They even look the part, RRP £299.99 for three alarms and receiver. I've just been looking for a new set of alarms and just like magic these appear, they look the business.

I'm not too keen on the look they remind me of batman
I've used my set of news for years but they're a bit battered now, I'm struggling to see why you should pay the fox prices, many alarms now are just as good

Im glad I belong to a generation of carp Anglers
that are just interested on how WELL something works and dont give a Flying fig what it looks like
I find it really sad when I see people post up things like
what reels would look best on my rods

Arent your generation the ones that loved all that blingy shiny stainless stuff 
You can't buy confidence. But all alarms and reels ect will catch fish, you spend 99.9% of the time sat behind your tackle sat doing nothing, if the fact you like the look of it makes you happy, and gives you a little more confidence then there is no harm in that. Most people fish better when feeling confident which in turn can put more fish on the bank

For you perhaps. But its the same reason many people like all their reel handles lined up and buzz bars level. If that makes thm feel happy and confident whats the issue?

think you just missed the point completely mate whoosh springs to mind lol
my point was not bog all to do with lined up reels etc ???
its about people PURCHASING some thing on how it looks as opposed to how well it works

Yes i got your point.
But these days there are many many alarms at different prices that are all reliable and all work very well. They will all do exactly the same thing.
So if you have a choice of alarms that all work, whats the issue choosing to buy the ones out of that selection that you prefer the look of?

That comment is quite ironic in that a set of mini microns from Fox, which are very good, will set you back a fair bit less than the £299 you are quoting for the JRC. I would recommend the Fox alarms for both value and quality but also back Jerry up in that the Prologic Bat alarms punch well above their price point in terms of performance ( I get it that you don't like the look of them but they do a very good job)

I get what you are saying, funnily enough my own preference is for practicability over looks, my reels are balanced to my rods and 99% of my gear is purchased on practability ( as long as it's quality) over looks but these go a bit far in the bad looks stake for me, do they let off a bat signal when you've had a fish?
I'm sure they work great but why go to all the trouble of making a good working product to completely ruin it with looks? I suppose you could could name your receiver Robin though, then shout "Pow" when you get a run
I've been sat behind nevs for the best part of a decade now which I do actually really like for their practicality and simplicity but I'd like a change now, they're also a bit battered after years of use

Really like the look of the new micron m, I like to have three different colours l.e.d's though, I do a lot of fishing and it's very obvious three different colours help to see which rod has bleeped at night with a just a glance.
I Never understand why people go for three of the same colour l.e.ds it would do my head in.
The micron m doesn't come with a receiver either, does it? I'd actually buy the new mini micron myself if they had the right features

I got the newer fox Mx and paid £269 for 3 with receiver.
Unbelievable value, and yeah I get your point regarding different leds, nice to clearly see which one at night.
