I am looking to get a set of alarms for my occasionally used 2nd /compact set of roda and occasional guests.
I had relegated my Delkims to that role, but really want simething more reliable, without spending a fortune.
The Carpspirit HD5's look good value and I like the idea of them using 9v batteries, which are obtainable anywhere.
Likewise the Sonik Vader X look like they might fit the bill and maybe the Fox Mini M I cron X, although I'm not so keen onbthe oddball batteries required.
Any user comments onbthe above would be most welcome, likewise any other alarms.
Obviously, I want something dependable, plus some sensitivity control too.
Looking for a 3+1 set.
Oh yeah, I just remembered the JRC Radar CX, which I can get for a decent price ,here on the U.S. side of the pond.
Grateful for any advice or comments.
Tight lines all !

I use a set of Mini Micron X for the same reason. Can't fault them. As I said in another thread, can't see what the advantage of the RX+ are at 3 x the price.

The batteries have lasted getting on a year so far, so wouldn't be too concerned about that.

If you don't need a remote the Delkim EVDs are solid and affordable . . .

From experience you won't go wrong with either the Fox mini Microns or a set of Prologic BAT+ alarms. Both have all the features you need and having used both for a number of years, I've not experienced any issues with either

Atts roller buzzers. Light compact there virtually indestructible. Bought mine as I fancied a change from Delks. Doubt I'd go back to them now as there that good.

THESE are fantastic alarms I have a set in my collection

and they will BEAT THE HELL out of Alarms costing 4 times the price IMHO Prologic have made some not very good alarms in the past
but trust me this model is a fully featured alarm and simply amazing for the silly cheap price
