The issue is that very are no verifiable, repeatable tests by independent sources by "Scientific Method".

Most of these testers that endorse the detectors or jammers have some direct or indirect connection to the industry as suppliers or consultants.

You really need a test done by someone like Consumer Testing or UL.

How have you determined the tester's connection to the industry? And if someone's going to say that there's no independent testing to say they work, the inverse is true as well. There's no independent testing to say they don't. The only conclusion you could come up with is "inconclusive". So then we have to resort to anecdotal information. While not being ideal, with a large enough sample size, bad data gets diluted enough to make a reasonable estimate of how well they work. And here, the numbers lean solidly towards the devices work.

These guys put together a fairly extensive laser test Radar Detector Tests and Reviews by Guys of LIDAR - LASER

Nothing is going to be a true controlled test. It's an expensive endeavor. The best we have is the radar detector forums. The vast majority of users seem to have good experiences with them.

So this small group of guys just got together and just happened to have access to 10 of the top police laser guns.

This thread is like using the Bible to prove the existence of God when arguing with an atheist.

Thanks for making this a stupid thread with 20 year old useless facts brought to us by you, propagandist police research and the most worthless radar company in existence. Cobra

What you may not know is the new internet marketing strategies, there are a lot of instances where forums are set up to promote items that are for sale. Then you also have ppl that are paid to post on these various forums, endorsing and raving about the products.

Its all part of the marketing game.
