I got my first speeding ticket the other day (92 mph in a 70 mph zone) and am looking to buy a laser jammers. The ticket says the officer used a Stalker DSR/DB015283 gun. Based on this info, what signal jammers models would you suggest looking into?
Based on Google research, it sounds like there are a LOT of different jammers available to purchase, so I just want to make sure I get one that will jam the guns used here in GA & AL.
Also, on the topic of radar specifically -- I know it's illegal to use radar jammers in the US, but is it common for people to, you know... use products that do it anyways (if you get what I'm saying)? Just curious.
No. They are federally illegal and WILL land you in prison and/or with a very hefty fine.
For Jammers, you need to look into ALP or an R9. But we don't know your budget.
I was buying A laser jammer, I would buy an R9 or an ALP system
what your problem was is you didn’t have a radar detector so I would purchase a R8 or R7 both made by uniden or Valentine one makes a very nice one. V1G2 .that’s my opinion and everyone has one.
I looked into the R9, but I don't think I can afford to spend $4k on a detector right now. However, it looks like a the R8 is only $700, which is definitely within my budget.
In terms of laser jammers, it looks like the ALP costs around $1700 (assuming I'm looking at the correct product page -- the website layout is kind of confusing).
Basically, I'm only at risk of getting pulled over when driving on the the highway. Unfortunately, there are long stretches (I.e., probably several thousand feet) of highway that don't curve or change elevation at all (and there are typically bridges at the ends of these stretches that the cops hide under), so I'm wondering if a radar detector will be effective at all (especially if the cops have a tendency to use a function I've heard about called "instant on").
GA is tricky, they have a lot of dragoneye which is the hardest lidar to jam, but it is doable. Countermeasures are best done in layers, so a radar detector to cover radar, laser protection for laser, and I would add running an app, Waze at minimum or add something like highway radar/JBV1. As those will provide you warning of police traps ahead as reported by other users.
Loads of radar detector options, as you mentioned instant on is an issue so go for something long range, if you want to save some money and can do without arrows, the uniden R4 is a great choice otherwise the R7 or R8, V1G2 are all solid choices.
For laser coverage ALP is the long running solution as they have been around and providing dragoneye coverage the longest, if a full setup front and rear is out of your price range, there are other systems like TPX or TMG that can also do decently, they lack some nice to have features but will generally do the job.
I typically found most traps in GA were marked on Waze before I got to them but not all, they do like to shoot laser and radar from behind (parked on highway entrance ramps/overpasses) those are not always as well marked. Having laser coverage and radar detection in addition to apps will round out your layers of security.
