PIGEON_MAN Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 what the deal with ets rings with price can any rings be used with other systems is there a deal on buying in bulk I was not aware that it was possible to use any ring with a different system but there is a post that says the Mega one will take any ring,the cheapest rings I know are Bricon at £1.10,Unikon rings are £1.40 to individuals if you buy 100+ but if your club pays £75 to become a member of the Unikon club then they are £1.25 for a minimum of 50 rings. £1.50 eachAre you having a laugh.
ovy1255 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 all systems can be programed to clock in any rings ------open clocking [just like an open mobile phone being able to use any sim]but ets manufacturers send out updates [program]so they only recognise their rings in the case of unikon all their rings start C9 and bricon C5--------- SO IF YOU CAN ALTER THE PROGRAM YOU CAN USE ANY ------in a perfect world.HITAG CHIPS i believe are made in holland so buy 100000 and have them fitted to rings ,get them approved by the union for use and sell them to all the unikon guys at £1.00 each and make your fortune.----make sure chips are prefixed C9.

Tony C Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 Whats the price of these rings please. Mega system rings were being sold at Blackpool at £1.05 each. If they can sell them at that price you have to ask yourselves why cant the other ETS firms do the same..............Ka-ching!!!!!

ovy1255 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 I assign all our club rings -bricon and unikon and up till now have not seen any deviation from these codes.
T_T Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 I asked the question at B/Pool about using the Mega ET rings (at £1-05) on my Benzing clock and was told a definite NO! Yet I can use my Benzing ET rings on the Mega system. So ALL CLOCKS must be compatible but NOT THE RINGS. It's obvious to me, that some companies are not making enough out of us pigeon fanciers and still want more. You could ( as I have ) mention it to your regional delegate to be talked about at their next meeting but as for a positive result, I doubt it.
Pompey Mick Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 This has been an on-going topic for months, an 'innocent' question which results in a slanging match mainly aimed at Unikon (who have a very good product but also a manufacturing base in the UK which leads to higher overheads).As far as I can see the vast majority of fanciers value their YB's at £0.00, they are an expendable commodity, in fact the only thing most fanciers worry about is that if an animal loving member of the public rescues and cares for a lost YB they will have to pay to have it returned.Far too many 'cannon fodder' YBs are being bred and if the 'cost' of an ETS ring helps to reduce this breeding by numbers then I for one will be glad of it.

Losses are part and parcel , the E.T.S. ring manufacturers are getting in the neck because if the cost of rings were cheaper (and many believe they could/should be) it would make the blow less of an impact financially and emotionaly.
hotrod Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 i have unicon and paid £72.50 for 50 rings at blackpool although a bit pricey so be it ,what i do and like lots of others is race yer youngsters on rubbers and put ets rings on when yearlings so if bad y/b racing with lots of losses then its not costing toooo much .simples
Guest IB Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 Inflation is a fact of life, little you and I can do about that. Compatibility is a necessity of life, and I thought the unions had made sure ETS Clocks were compatible. I don't understand how clocks can be compatible yet rings not? So exactly what are ETS clocks compatible with?
