Default Laser jammer testing by UKspeedtraps

Just gauging Interest to see who would like to have their jammer / detectors tested by Steven Warren the man who runs ukspeedtraps, he is a very expereinced tester and has reviewed and tested pretty much every piece of kit out there.

He can do testing in dartford in the south and Staffordshire for the north.

£30 each for 10 or more people, maybe cheaper if we get a good turn out.

Need a list of names and some date suggestions to get this organised.

cheers


Peter

yes you can see the light being transmitted if you have a camera sensitive to IR, but how do you set the jammer off ?. To get it tested and make sure the jamming is 100% effective you need to use a laser gun.

Graham can do Saturdays or Sundays we just need to give him some notice, So will wait for a few more people to respond then arrange a firm date.

Not sure, at the moment it looks likely to be the dartford one as prime 3 to 1 so far, but it can be arranged at staffs for a different day.

Sorry yes it is Steve Warren not Graham, im useless with names hence why i keep my login so short.


What does everyone think about location Dartford is middleish if people are coming from south of the river. Going to Northhampton or Bedforshire allthough closer for me is probably a bigger trek for others.

dartford is fine for me, although Northampton/bedford would be nice as I live nearer.

Sorry to mess you about but I'm probably off to Scotland that weekend. I've had a look at the map and the Staffs venue is 100 miles from me and too far off route to divert.
