     Delkim Alarms – In v2’s I TRUST!

    When you’re out on the bank, it goes without saying you want an alarm you can trust; that’s one of the key reasons why the Delkim v2 bite alarms play such an essential role in my angling.
    I know each and every time I turn up to the lake, all I have to do is turn the alarms on, and I’m fishing. I also have the peace of mind that I’m not going to run into any unexpected issues, once the initial set up of the v2 alarms is complete, there’s not a lot else to worry about. 
    Like most people who go carp fishing, we all live busy lives, and despite having OCD issues “lol” and trying to keep on top of maintenance, it’s just not always possible, and that’s where you need complete trust in your equipment. 
    Admittedly, over the last 23 years, since I started carp fishing, I’ve used a number of alarms throughout my time; however, I always find myself gravitating back to where I started, with Delkim. 
    For me, the reliability of going through all four seasons in a calendar year is essential, non more so than through the winter period, especially when in the past I’ve been let down with frozen alarms. I can open and honestly say that’s never been the case with Delkim alarms, which is mainly down to the vibration plate. 

    Why Alarm Sensitivity Matters on the Bank

    These days, there’s only one function I change, and it’s the ‘vibration response’ on the front of the alarm, and that’s very much weather-dependent. With risk of stating the obvious, the windier it gets and the more tow you’re having to deal with, the less response I’ll have on my alarm. If I were in a fishing situation where I was using zigs, fishing up to snags or maybe fishing for liners in the winter, then I’d have sensitivity turned up to the max. 
    In my opinion, both functionally and aesthetically, I don’t believe there’s a better all-around alarm on the market. The alarms are an investment in your angling, and if reliability is your most important aspect, then I can honestly say the Delkim v2 bite alarms will not let you down.

    Delkim Bissanzeiger - auf den Fisch achten, nicht auf das Wetter

    Das britische Wetter ist unberechenbar wie eh und je und gehört zum Angelerlebnis wie alles andere. Vor allem, wenn Sie sich gerade für eine gute Session am Wasser niedergelassen haben, die Ruten ausgepackt haben und bereit sind, loszulegen, und der Himmel aufreißt. Stellen Sie sich Folgendes vor: Sie haben gerade auf die neuesten Delkim Txi-Ds aufgerüstet, den Stolz Ihres Angelkastens, aber dann, als der Regen einsetzt, gibt es auch noch Fehlalarm.
    Klingt wie ein Albtraum, oder? Aber halten Sie sich zurück, denn ich bin hier, um etwas Licht in den Unsinn mit den Regentagen zu bringen.
    First off, you can use your Txi-Ds straight out of the box and find they’re set up ready to go for most conditions, no tweaks, no updates just a rock-solid bite alarm.  But if you are getting false beeps, then it’s easy to tailor your bite indicator to suit almost any weather, minimise false alarms, maximise catches and put more fish on the bank. And that’s what we’re all here for.
    That said, let’s tackle the elephant in the room – the idea that Delkims and rain go together like chalk and cheese. It’s a myth, nonsense, poppycock to be frank.  Talked up by anglers who are going to stick to their roller style bite alarms no matter what. Seeing as we have been making bite alarms since 1992, think this proves how well they work in all weathers. We only make bite alarms so if they didn’t work we wouldn’t be here and you wouldn’t be reading this!

    Witterungsbeständige Bissanzeiger

    We’ve all heard the rumours, annoying comments around false alarms during an unexpected downpour but Txi-D’s are not just designed to be weather-resistant, they’re perfect companions no matter the weather. The default settings help you get going quickly and the customisation helps you get to know your gear and understand what each setting does to make your experience better. Because, with a little knowledge, a few YouTube tutorials, and a couple of tweaks, you can get your Delkims can screaming in the rain for all the right reasons.
    As standard, the Delkim Txi-Ds are fantastic bits of kit, packed with features designed to tackle almost every scenario. Rain, snow, freezing temperatures, sunny days and hazy afternoons. But you can do so much more, we’re talking sensitivity adjustments, beep speed control, and the awesome ‘Do Not Disturb‘ function. They all help you set your alarms up for a perfect session no matter the weather.

    Vibration Sensing Power

    If you’re missing out on the power of a vibration sensor but want to get involved then try the Txi-Ds straight out of the box, you’ll find they work brilliantly almost everywhere or dig a little deeper and dial in your alarms to fit how you want to fish.  Head over to our YouTube channel, download our app, or jump on our Facebook forum for ‘how to’ videos, content, and help.
    Die Einstellungen nicht zu nutzen, ist so, als ob man ein iPhone besitzt und es nur zum Telefonieren und Versenden von SMS verwendet. Sie verpassen so viel mehr, was es für Sie tun kann. Wenn du anfängst, die Einstellungen zu optimieren, mit der Empfindlichkeit herumzuspielen, die LED-Helligkeit für Tag und Nacht einzustellen, kannst du den idealen Punkt finden, an dem die Delkims auf die Fische und nicht auf das Wetter achten.
    Egal was passiert, mit einem Delkim erhalten Sie mehr Informationen als mit jedem anderen Bissanzeiger, für den Sie jemals Geld ausgegeben haben. Garantiert.
