If you want protection from laser, buy a laser jammer, if they are legal in your state. I had a Laser Interceptor on my 350Z and it performed amazing, gives you time to slow down and then turn it off so they can get a reading of your speed. If you are relying on just a radar detector for protection you are going to have a bad time and will be spending $ for tickets.

That's exactly what I have been trying to tell ppl. the best dectors may be able to pick up x or k band far away 5-10 miles. If the police set up parallel to the road and the road is completely flat or you have a elevation to your advantage that would allow your detectors to detect the police miles away.

My point is even with the old x band or k band police radars , all the police would have to do is set up their radar, perpendicular to road, thus making their radar beam narrow or short to the on coming target and the not allowing drivers radar detector to alert the driver.

So with all the instant ons, lasers, and other police tricks a 50/50 chance gambling your insurance costs and driving records are just to risky.

There is also a big debate if these little led jammers even work.
