Default Tanman & others- maybe you can shed some light on the Lidatek Laser shifters.

Any thoughts on if they actually work and what would happen if i was caught using one?

I don't speed regulary, usually with in 5-10mph of the posted but it seems like all the local PD's are now getting laser setups.<ul><li><a href="http://www.lidatek.com/">Lidatek Laser Systems</a></li></ul>

Default This company - if I remember correctly - is a fraud. It think they are prohibited from selling is

some states becuase their equipment does not do as stated.

But then again maybe I have killed too many brain cells.

I don't think the company is a fraud, but as I understand it laser jammers are illegal in CO.

DonP and I did some independant testing of their system with great results. I have also been saved in the wild from laser tickets myself. Great product!<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/news/03/lidatek/content.shtml">Lidatek LE-20 Laser Echo: Evening the Odds</a></li></ul>

Default Like I said I could be wrong and apparently am - but thought I remember

hearing it on the radio (Tom Martino???) Could have been for a different product.

Default Reggie is thinking about Rocky Mtn. Radar.......see inside....

They are illegal in Colo., however, the Escort SR-7 with laser shifter is available through Car Toys, installed, because they put an xtra on/off switch on it to keep it legal. Had a long talk with the Car Toys guy at OctDubber Fest last year about this.

Default technically they are illegal, but..............

the setup that Car Toys will install, from they have told me, works around the law. Or you can DIY it.
