How long do they tell us these updates are field tested before release?
Absolute B S Never been a Delkim Fan. Certainly not changing from Fox at the moment.
BTW Fox have been just as guilty of releasing untested products. I think they are improving in this respect.

one negative ive found so far, the power button stands out prominent and can be turned on in your buzz bar bag if something rests against it...it should have been counter sunk

i have said they need to bring back the original mk1 style. They were not having any of it. I think they would sell very well, same cases just updated with latest digital tech and "robotic waterproofing coating technology" lol

not a fan of the new delks feel abit too small and fiddly ,loved the original txi design looked amazing and very easy to use then txi plus came out and was a big step up but didnt look as good , good to see the EV is back but its not very budget at £450 remember the EV plus being £50 each , started using my original txi,s again this season still work perfectly and look great

They don't spoil your night vision at all. They are nowhere near bright enough to do that, they are a dull glow

It's not that I'm bothered about not being seen, I'm imagining that it'll spoil your night vision, I've never had a 'nighlight' so don't really see the need, it's put me off getting a set, I'm staying with my Nev's..

Thanks for all the responses..

You mean the electrical tape, don't need a led I'm not deaf
I'm like you, only want to see a led on a take...but have to admit it's been decades since I last put my night lites on.....might try it for the hell of it now just to remind me....you're evil

Never had a illuminated hanger either, though strangely lately I've been drawn to the old Fox Euro ones, nostalgia as my friends had them.

Back to the Delks, got to say the vid explaining the features of the EV-R is one of the better ones I've seen. They've got to be worth a punt with a 4 year warranty, similar reasoning for me trying Wolf Qis.

Sort of beats the point of having them there in the first place then - what if in the one in a million chance you get a run??

It would put me off looking out over my rods and the first thing you see is a set of glowing lights from your alarms - may only be me, but the only time I want to see them lit up is fairly obvious...
