Savayman Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Delkim FAQ Which Delkims sense line movement AND vibration? All the Delkim models (EV, PLus and Txi Plus) detect both vibration & movement. Experienced anglers using Delkims report that they are often alerted by a few beeps prior to a full run. Vibrations are usually detected when a carp is sucking up pieces from a method ball or surrounding chum prior to inhaling the bait or when it enters the area and hovers over the baits - its fin wash causing ‘tremors’ in the line. The perfect ‘early warning’ system! Delkim’s unique and patented detection system combined with the unique NiteLite Pro hanger system allows optimum bite detection while ‘tuning’ out interference (false beeps) from wind or wave action. What about a "Silent" mode? Some anglers prefer to use a remote sounder unit (Receiver). However, unlike alarms that rely solely on a receiver, Delkim offers anglers a choice - Sound at the alarm and the remote or by turning off the alarm volume control, sound only at the remote. Plus, the Delkim Rx Pro Receiver also has a vibration alert (similar to a cell phone) allowing a fully silent mode if needed. Furthermore the Rx will warn you if you wander out of range or if someone tries to steal your alarms! How long do batteries last? Battery life is an issue on many alarms. False ‘beeps’ from wave action or windy conditions can quickly drain batteries in just a few hours – imagine waking up only to find you've missed a run. Delkim’s state of the art digital electronics offer over 6000 hours of battery life – a whole season for most anglers. The Delkim Plus and Txi units also have a low battery warning ensuring you never risk missing that fish of a lifetime. What is the Night Marking mode? Permanent on the Ev and switchable on the Plus and Txi models the twin LEDs on the alarms ‘glimmer’ to allow anglers to position rods easily (between the LEDs) at night and avoids the need for hard to see betalights. When a line movement or vibration is detected the LEDs shine brightly to indicate which rod has the run. How is the new NiteLite Pro unique? Hangers are certainly amongst the most popular visual indicator. Delkim have developed the NiteLite Pro that offers significant advantages over conventional hangers. First the magnetic ball clip is not only easy to use but is self adjusting for all line types. Second the built in LED not only imitates the alarm LED function (including night marking, latching etc) but needs no battery only using minimal power from the alarm unit. Third the smooth Catflex tm cable outperforms chains and finally the dedicated DuoCarb tm hanger adjustable support option increases stability in any conditions. What about reliability? Delkim’s legendary quality, incredible 30 year history and expertise coupled with an unrivalled 2 year warranty speaks for itself. Its why top anglers rely on Delkim’s!
