Well they are illegal. So I don't think many of us are running them. But maybe someone is.
Now Laser Jammers...I recommend Blinder M45. |

Radar jammers are illegal in every state. Laser Jammers are only illegal in some states. See here: http://www.insurance.com/quotes/Arti...ped_/artid/390

Agree with above..there are no radar jammers. If you are interested in a good price on a Blinder M25 laser jammer, let me know. I haven't posted it up yet, but it's brand new, never installed.

Send me your "400 hundy" (which is actually $40,000 if 'hundy' means 'hundred' in your language), and I'll build you a radar jammer out of chicken wire and ball bearings that will work just as well as the ones you can buy online.
You're joking, right? You don't actually believe a $400 radar 'jammer' would actually do anything other than make you $400 poorer? If you fall for that, I know someone in Nigeria that can make you rich really quickly. You just have to send a little bit of money to help free up the funds... Do yourself a favor. Do a little research, buy an effective radar detector like a V1, and drive carefully. And it's 'BMW' drivers here, not 'BMDubbu'.

Actually, for $400 you could probably build a radar jammer that might even work (if you knew what you were doing). The problem is that it is a Federal offense to turn the thing on. The FCC licenses various frequencies for use, and they for sure don't license anyone to jam the freqs that law enforcement uses.

The way the OP talks in this and other posts, I don't think he's really concerned with legalities. The point is there isn't a single radar jammer on the market that does anything other than beep and flash lights.

Laser jammers are still legal in many states. LIDATEK was good but temporarily (?) out of production. A device called the "Laser Park Pro" from Europe gets good reviews. It's sold as a park distance control that just "happens" to jam laser.

If I remember, one of the things C/D could do with the gizmo was make the police radar read any speed they wanted. 55MPH, 29MPH, or 200MPH. We can blind state-of-the-art Russian air defense radar systems to Israeli bombers in Syria, so it's probably still feasable to jam police radar today. No matter how sophisticated police radar has become, it won't be as sophisticated as a $100 million air defense system. But it's still illegal, and a Federal offense. I would prefer risking a speeding ticket to risking Federal prison time.

If you're talking about a laser jammer, the Laser Interceptor is extremely effective. IIRC it beat all other jammers in a test by another site. Call Elvis at 602-370-6885 to buy it (can't buy from a U.S. website b/c of some legal issues apparently).

Radar, which is an electromagnetic wave that is in the radio frequency range, is regulated by the FCC and under federal law, all radar jammers are illegal.
Laser, which is an EM wave usually in the visible or near visible spectrum, is regulated by the FDA. There is no federal regulation on interfering laser signals. Thus, the legality of laser jammer varies from state to state.
