I'm still using my Micron M's I bought 20 years ago. Just an on/off button and a volume knob. As long as it goes bleep when the line moves that's all I need it to do.

Where do you get the new chair from?

Had set of old microns cracking bit of kit first time carp fishing 🐟🎣👍👊

i bet these are no way near the same quality, my friend had an early micron from the 90's, he bought another probably 5 years later, and i remember him opening them up and even back then, the circuitry and build of the earlier model was so much better. I don't like fox gear, i've heard staff in tackle shops talk about how much they mark up cheap products, and they are one of the worst companies for it, still i do sometimes buy fox products. However its one thing to buy cheap and know it might fall apart, but fox so often charge premium prices, for stuff that's worth peanuts, imo fox gear is more about bling factor than quality, especially these days.

Got a set of three. Cannot fault them myself

Had the original pukka alarms need a set of theses to I think

Original mini microns came out 26years ago buddy my mate had a set👍

Just got a pair as a back up set and cant fault them.

Receivers? I have one on each side of my head. handy for stopping glasses slipping off too ;-)

Great value for money , but i think i will stick with my Delkims ,(Best alarms ever) but if someone is just starting of carp fishing ,then these microns are for you !

I have still got the original mini microns and they are still going strong,even though they are gathering dust along with quite a bit of old gear at the back of the garage 🤣🤣

You could buy a universal dongle to plug in the bottom then connect a receiver to it.

They do presentation sets now (2 or 3) but the price hike is pretty steep, around £200 for the 3 rod set.

ND S9s are the best budget on the market if you want a wireless reciever 👍

@Dr Joe44 and you have owned a set since launch and had no problems 👍 its 2020 everything is packed with features , the microns are good if your old and dont care for a reciver 👍

Can i buy reciver for them

Are these waterproof

Range?

@michaelhopewell7739

That's assumed with Fox alarms, at least the rainproof part. I can't remember a single Fox alarm misbehaving in the rain over the last few decades.

Given the cost of these, how do fox justify well over £600 for a set of the top end alarms? The tech isn't THAT different.

I still use my micron mmxr’s. They must be 15 years old or older. Had to replace the receiver but still going strong. Proper quality alarms

Too much tech for me. I,m still using my 20 year old microns. An on/off switch and a volume control. I do not need anything more. I was looking to replace them. Only because of their age. I just want new ones exactly the same. Can't seem to find any.

Think the Nash S5s looks horrible, plus the sides are low and curved so if tight on the drag (to avoid snags) then out comes your rod if you get a side take. The Fox mini microns imho look a lot nicer and also more practical with better sides for keeping your rod safe but each to their own.
