Default anyone used a laser diffuser/jammer?

see these advertised on the net supposed to send signals back to the speed camara causing it to read error for 4/5seconds enough time to slow down, sounds good?

They have a narrow band so if the police aim the lazer to far from your jammer it will not activate

Mine got taken in France after van was clocked about 12 k/mh over the limit (thats a massive 8mph over!) and not only did they take it, they kindly escorted me to a cash point. Lovely people There illegal there apparently

I swear they picked a random figure which was 300 euro's worked out around at the time of exchange rate of 1.44 £210 which I later worked back to costing me about £27 for each mph I was over the limit.

Serves me right for doing 92 km/h in an 80 km/h zone

thanks for all the replys, handy as hear of people getting nicked for just a few mph over the limited, driving 70 is like going backwards about time they up the speed limit i think.
