The ECU MK1 R Plus Compact Remote Bite Alarm 3 Rod Set is a comprehensive bite alarm system designed for carp and specimen anglers who want reliable indication at distance. The set includes three compact alarm heads and a matching remote receiver, both built under the MK1 Compacts banner by E.C.U. and Scott Edwards. The alarms are engineered to provide clear visual and audible signals, with a range of adjustable features to suit different fishing conditions and personal preferences. Each alarm head offers a signal range of up to 200m, ensuring you stay informed of bites even when fishing at long range. A mute function lets you silence the alarm with a single press for 30 seconds or two taps for 60 seconds, useful when playing a fish or adjusting rigs. Both the latching LED and run LED are multi-coloured and can be set to any colour via the LC button, allowing you to match the alarm to your rod setup or personal preference. Volume, tone, and sensitivity buttons give you full control over how the alarm responds, while an LED dimmer button (L button) helps reduce glare in low-light conditions. The RT (range testing) feature works with the R-Plus receiver to confirm whether you are in range of the alarm head, removing guesswork when positioning rods. A low battery indicator window sits alongside the toggle switch, so you can quickly check power status. The anti line skip roller wheel prevents line from jumping over the roller, while the slick glide roller wheel feature improves movement for lighter lines. Vertical isotope slots accept 12mm x 2mm isotopes for enhanced visibility in the dark. A drop back function provides visual and audible differentiation between forward and reverse movement, helping you detect drop backs or liners. Rod riser storm ears are included to elevate the rod at a steeper angle, and an external base drop down antenna extends the signal range further. A 2.5mm jack output socket is provided for illuminated hangers, which are expected to be available later this year. The MK1 R-Plus remote receiver matches the alarms with its own 200m signal range. LC buttons allow you to change the colour of all six LEDs on the receiver independently, so you can assign a distinct colour to each alarm head. The RT button activates a range testing mode that signals whether you are in or out of range from any alarm head while temporarily activated. A vibration button provides a silent alert option, and an LED dimmer button adjusts brightness. The programme button lets you assign any alarm head to any receiver LED in seconds, while a reset button instantly wipes all pairing to all alarms for a simple and effective erasing procedure. The volume button includes a mute setting at the lowest volume point. A low battery indicator window sits alongside the toggle switch, and the receiver also features a central 12mm x 2mm isotope slot. - Up to 200m signal range - Mute function (M button, one press 30 sec mute / two taps 60 sec mute) - Latching LED, multi colour LED can be set to any colour (LC button) - Run LED, multi colour LED can be set to any colour (LC button) - Volume, tone, and sensitivity buttons - LED dimmer button (L button) - RT (range testing feature when used with R-Plus receiver) - Low battery indicator window alongside toggle switch - Anti line skip roller wheel (stops line skipping over roller wheel) - Slick glide roller wheel feature (for increased light line movement over roller wheel) - Vertical isotope slots take 12mm x 2mm size isotopes - Drop back function, visual and audible differentiation between forward and reverse movement - Rod riser storm ears included for increased angled rod height elevation - Extended signal range with external base drop down antenna - Jack output 2.5mm socket size for illuminated hangers (hangers will be available this year) - Up to 200m signal range - LC buttons, LED colour change independently all six LEDs on the receiver - RT button (range testing feature that signals if you are in range or out of range from any alarm head whilst this mode is temporarily activated) - Vibration button - LED dimmer button - Programme button, programme any alarm head to any receiver LED in seconds - Reset button, instantly wipes all pairing to all alarms - Volume button with a mute setting at the lowest volume point - Low battery indicator window alongside the toggle switch - 12mm x 2mm central isotope slot
