Rippton Bitekeeper Pro 3+1 Rechargeable Bite Alarms

Step into modern, smart carp angling with the Rippton Bitekeeper Pro 3+1 Rechargeable Bite Alarm Set. Delivering ultra-compact head design, full smartphone app integration, and rock-solid 100-meter wireless telemetry, this set brings true high-tech convenience to your bankside setup.

Gone are the days of carrying spare 9V batteries or squinting at tiny dials in the dark. The Bitekeeper Pro features magnetic rechargeable lithium-ion batteries across both the heads and receiver, giving you up to 10 days of standby time per charge. With full Bluetooth app synchronization, you can adjust volume, tone, and sensitivity directly from your smartphone or receiver, and receive instant vibration alerts on your phone when a fish takes line.

Key Features

• Smartphone App Integration: Connects seamlessly to iOS and Android devices via Bluetooth. Receive real-time audio and vibration alerts on your phone or smartwatch when a fish bites.

• Full Remote Control: Fine-tune volume, tone (7 diatonic scales), and sensitivity settings across all heads using either the receiver handset or the mobile app.

• Ultra-Compact & IP66 Waterproof: Micro-sized alarm heads weighing under 37g each, fully sealed against torrential rain, mud, and bankside dampness.

• Multi-Color LED Customization: Easily switch individual LED colors (Blue, Red, Green, Yellow, Purple) on each head with a simple button hold.

• Differential Drop-Back Indication: Features distinct LED flashing and unique audio tones to immediately distinguish between a run and a drop-back bite.

• Magnetic USB Charging: Built-in lithium-ion batteries eliminate disposable battery costs. Simply attach the magnetic charge cable for fast top-ups.

Detailed Specifications

Examples of Where to Use

• Overnight Carp & Pike Sessions: Slip the lightweight receiver under your pillow or let your smartphone vibrate in your pocket to wake you up the instant a line pulls.

• Stormy & Torrential Weather: The IP66 waterproof rating ensures total protection against heavy British weather, eliminating the circuit-board shorts common with cheaper alarms.

• Slack-Line & Snag Fishing: Dial up to max sensitivity for wary margin carp, or back off the sensitivity when fishing choppy open waters to prevent false wind beeps.

• Ultra-Light Roving Setups: The featherweight 36g heads sit flush on buzz bars or single banksticks without adding top-heavy bulk to your rod pods.

Pro Tip from Gerry’s Fishing

To maximize battery efficiency on multi-day long-stay sessions, use a standard 5V/3A power bank to top off all three heads and receiver using the multi-way magnetic charging cable. Always ensure the charging contacts on the rear of the alarm heads are wiped clean and dry of lake water before snapping on the magnetic charging lead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I run the Bitekeeper Pro set without using the phone app?

Yes, absolutely. While the mobile app offers extra visual customization and phone vibration alerts, you can adjust all volume, tone, sensitivity, and LED color settings directly using the physical buttons on the receiver and alarm heads.

How do drop-back alerts work on this model?

When a carp swims toward your rod tip and drops line slack, the Bitekeeper Pro detects the reverse roller movement. It emits a distinct, continuous low-pitched sound and causes the white LED to flash, letting you instantly know it’s a drop-back rather than a forward run.

How do I change the LED color on individual alarm heads?

Turn on the alarm head and press and hold the ‘S’ (Sensitivity) button. The LED will cycle through blue, red, green, yellow, and purple. Simply release the button when your preferred color lights up to lock it in memory.
