Question

Would you not be better off with a detector instead ?

Something like the Bell 550 or Valentine 1

I'm interested in something like this at the minute myself but you always hear different reports on which ones actually work.

Moving to Non-Subaru related as you should get more of a response there.

Cheers,

I "may" have one - SLD920 - only gone off once in 9 months and it was dark so couldn't see anyone, however added to the Road Angel and the Snooper it's more tricky to collect any more prizes (that's what p****ts make isn't it ?)

Downside is the inital outlay..vs fines and insurance.

P.S. This reply in no way condones driving in excess of the speed limit - it does complain bitterly about cunningly placed cameras just across changes in limits.

The problem with a detector is that once it goes off the poilce have already got your speed (if they are using a laser gun - which most of them do now), plus it dosent go off every 5 minutes.
I`m not sure about the legal side of things.

A friend of mine fits a front and rear laser jammer and Geod GPS system for £1400. This unit jams the police radar until you switch it off, it gives you time to check your speed. Nice piece of kit.
Mail me if you are interested.

Feel free to browse my.... umm.... testing of one..

HERE




Detectors are a waste of time(and money), read the report to see why.

If I were to fit one of these would it be possible to arrange the same sort of testing that has been described in this thread?
