Alarms of the future: - Carp called. 3 missed calls.. 😜

[@benjo8882]

I’ve got the s9’s, I was worried they were going to be terrible for battery life and have problem after problem but after a year of having them they’re brilliant! ND’s customer service is brilliant too, I got the headtorch (which is a game changer) and it was faulty, they sent me a new one in less than a week 👌

[@richardl635]

Brilliant review, definitely made me want to purchase these alarms, thank you ever so much

[@PI7ABR3D]

The connecting to the bivvy lamp and head lamps a bloody awesome feature tbh. Like said we've all stumbled around as that rod rips of in the dark.

[@sixsonic]

How is this with false beeps? Looking at the fox rx+ it needs to move the line the same way before 2 sec passes, any other way or no movement will reset the alarm. Which works great when fishing on a boat for example.

[@DjDolHaus86]

I had the original K9s and they were great, pretty much bulletproof (once you'd put a dab of superglue on the back of the dials), does everything you need an alarm to do well and the dropback differentiation is really useful. The receiver isn't waterproof though so be aware of that, I just chucked mine in a little ziplock bag otherwise the screen gets all fogged up. The phone functionality is a gimmick in all honesty. I treated mine like crap and the alarms never let me down, unfortunately some little toerag took a fancy to them and nicked them from my car otherwise I suspect I'd still be using them

[@WERONEfishing]

These are my new choice of set up K9 alarms the t10 bobbins n the smart watch and last but not least head torch n lamp

[@shaunoakman5609]

Like the look of these... I'm running old school drlkim txi's which sometimes play up & am wondering if its worth thinking about these ?? I know it's chalk & cheese, but my delks are getting old.... are these worth it ?? Cheers

Howdy! please tell me if when the app on the phone is connected to the station, it sounds or rings when it pulls the fish. I want to know if the phone is heard, not the station! thank you very much!

I have had these now about 6 months and love em... But sadly the battery life is like a fruit fly, truly shocking.

I've got these and 1 doesn't work and asked if I can send them back and they wouldn't do me a refund and I sent them a video and they never got back to me!!!

[@mikewilliams9044]

That's crazy I bought them and one was faulty spoke to supplier and they send me a new one

[@Gypsyking2024]

Like the look of them but you can't beat my Delkims with the D clip just clip the up and your done no screwing in and mucking about with them to get them right tone and and volume so I'll stick with my Delkims thank you aka Crazy Carper.

[@chimpy666]

ND more stuff that needs landfilling can sue ND for plastic pollution from all their shite products

[@paulpiker5909]

Agreed, when the app stop working ya may fuck everything out

[@davidba1983]

Only disadvantage is the batteries, why they never made them to work with a AAA battery is beyond me, you can't buy the batteries to fit the alarms in shops

[@Jonderski]

don't buy smart watch... I charged it once till 100% then it went flat, when I wanted to cherge it again, it stops charging at around 40% 😤☹️

[@newphone890]

Have you contacted them? Drop them a message on Facebook or Instagram and they soon get back with a solution to solve it just fixed 1 of my alarms I bought 3 odd years ago

[@paulpiker5909]

Good luck with customer service 🤣🤣🤣🤣

They are cheap as chips mate 😂 compared to delk

[@chrisg5486]

True my 3 delks and receiver cost near enough £550

[@paulpiker5909]

Nd customer service is an absolute joke , just wait till the app stops working and see how helpful they are ,pure waste of money

[@trigger4616]

When the main selling point for fishing gear is that they are cheap and you can get prime delivery on amazon you know its a swerve 🙄 I will stick with my 👉 fox rx+ thank you

[@spring899]

Don't even have the option to buy from their own website , only available through Amazon , I'll pass .

[@newphone890]

Why does that matter? Probably safer threw amazon then anywhere else. Unless you click on dodgy links
