Default Alright! Blinder: 1 Maryland State Trooper: 0

On the way home I was lased and my V1 and Blinder both went off at the same time.

I was not speeding at that moment.

How did I know it worked?

becaused after the inital laser, he shot me two more times and make sure his gun works! By that time I already turn it off.

Default thats cool, but how is he going to detect your radar, the v1 doesnt leak any radar like cheap...

walmart ones, so what is he gonna detect? far as i know, and have read, there is no such thing as a radar detector, detector. unless your detector is leaking radar for him to pick up...

Default vg2 is crap though, what is it detecting, my v1 is not emmiting anythign for it to pick up

i know what vg2 is, i just dont believe that it works unless you have a cheap radar. best radar detector, detector, is your eye...

Default yeah.. V1 is pretty solid.

but when you get hit by laser. V1 tells you when to pull over.

Laser jammers, unlike all the radar jammer on the market, actually works.

Default ok so give us more info on yours. (the jammer)

I use a V1 myself (in a non-legal state/province). so far no laser. I even caught a few highway-patrol cars with old K-band radars, heh.

Default Maryland state troopers uses lasers or VASCAR.

<center><img src="http://mysite.verizon.net/kchiang/images/aut_0006.jpg"></center><p>It's very hard to see the emmiters, but they are mounted on each side of the license plate.

As there is no defense for VASCAR, which they time you traveling from one point to the other with a stopwatch. Laser is used more than VASCAR b/c it's more accurate and harder to fight in court.

I installed blinder on my car earlier this year (after I got lased) I got the system from ebay for around $250 and installed it myself.

So far this is the second time I got lased since install. First time it was an Ohio State Trooper and I was doing some *ahem* "sprited driving".

Anyways.. here is my post regarding the installation of my system..<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/1528399.phtml">Blinder Laser Jammer Install</a></li></ul>
