Post Laser Jammer Testing

Who's interested in having their laser jammers tested? Due to their sensitive nature there is a fair percentage that dont work because they are either not set up perfectly or are faulty.

I know a local guy who has offered a group test @ £25 each using a laser speed gun.

I've just had a LRC100 fail on me so when I get a replacement I want to ensure its 100% working and set up correctly.

Sign up if you interested. Location can be arranged near N London and West Midlands.

Bob,
Might be worth starting a thread in the Southern section and linking to this.

I've had mine tested once before by Steve, but I've moved it since, so would like another test. Near N.London is good.

Seen this for more than £25 and you get to know on the day whether it works or not, rather than two weeks later with a N.I.P.

Passing a policeman looking quizzically into his "non-functioning" laser gun was all the testing i needed...!!

Some of the scamera partnerships are already taking "positive action" to negate laser jammers, they have equiped their vans to laser the rear of vehicles rather than the front as was the usual trick. I know that Dorset have one on the road already. Of course I'm sure it is possible to be in a situation where you sometimes reverse into your driveway and so require a door opener at both ends of the car, however don't be too confident while driving past the nice policeman as you might not have reached the point where his laser is aimed yet.

How many are required for this to go ahead and do you have a date in mind? Also, have you tried posting on SIDC?

Cheers

Well we're almost there now.

I'm thinking both locations if people can confirm (maybe with deposits?)

Maybe Sunday 16th October?

Midlands location: Coventry
N. London location: suggestions? Somewhere with straight roads and layby. Pref somewhere to turn cars also.

Free testing is available on the M40 between Oxford and London. No need to speed, because they are wafting the laser all over the motorway looking for a suitable target, so you should get a trigger if your installation is working

Only if they target you (ie your speeding)

Have tried this (not on that road) and had a very nervous wait for NIPs in post. Drove past it a couple of times (faster than speed limit) and nothing on LRC then made slight adjustment to it and 4th time through it worked....

NOT recommended! Firstly you dont know if they are tageting you as most will only doso if they think your speeding....then how do you know if they got you or not if jammer stays silent?
