I bought a set of 2 to go with my ECU mk1s. Haven't used them yet, and not too sure about them now.Time will tell tho.Im usually butchering other indicators to make a unique set to suit my fishing situation so these will probably go the same route if they're not great.

Not a review but just an interested watcher, I use ECU alarms and I really rate them, I just couldnt really understand the workings or unique points of the indicators despite watching the video several times? Maybe I'm looking too deep and its just a sort of loose hanger / rigid swing arm but if that's the case it doesnt seem to be one or the other? I would need to know as the cost of 3 is significant.

The batteries in my ECUs barely last 4 days fishing, I don't fancy powering anything else off them

I'm interested by them though. Would have to see them first before stomaching the price.

I've the Mk1s as previous post, and can get March-Nov on Lithium batteries.
Maybe it's the lack of runs 😁
The hangers to me are a bit of jack of all trades, master of none type of tackle,but I'll try them out and see how they perform. Not too sure on that spring tho. 🤔

I think mine drain when turned off. Fresh batteries will last a session, but often then I get the low battery light a few sessions later. Which batteries do you use?

Hi there,
I don't own the ECU alarms now as I changed to Wolf, however I had a set for a good few years and generally got 8-10 months use from them without issue, used Duracell's.
Seems a bit odd, especially if all of them are doing the same thing, I'd drop Scott a message and see what he suggests.

Try using rechargeable lithiums. They are reasonably cheap and hold a very steady charge. I can go months without needing to charge mine.

Are you using the batteries that Scott supplies? I've never had an issue with battery drain

I did at first bit they didn't last so I tried others. I currently have a huge box of gp ultras they all last the same. I do around 8 nights a month and I've changed them twice this year so far , probably sho8ld have done something about it I've just got used to it

I'm waiting for a few reviews before I purchase them. I do like the look of them but the price is significant for what they are.
