Marc says: Although I do not use these all the time, I have done so on and off since they were first introduced to replace the original versions. In a nutshell, they plug into the alarm and illuminate in the event of a bite. This also means that there is no need for a ‘hockey stick’. The magnetic ball-bearing ‘clip’ makes their use ideal for any diameter of line and additional weights can be added to the base if required.

The cord has been improved and it sits as limply as needs be while still protecting the wire inside. My only slight gripe is that it’s a little on the long side. I like to have my rods as low to the ground as possible and this can mean that the cord pushes against the ground and wants to lift up.

That aside, I can well understand why lots of Delkim alarm users buy and use these. They’re extremely versatile, can be bought in colours to match the alarm LEDs (this is where the variation in price comes from) and this new version is definitely built to last. They’re not cheap, but there is a lot of design work that goes into these indicators.

Marc's Verdict
Performance: ★★★★★★★★★★
Value: ★★★★★★★★★★
Great all-round indicators
