| This is a breakdown of the Blinder M40 laser jamming performance results from Guys of Lidar laser jammer test in April 2007. The Blinder M40 has been tested by speed Measurement Labs since 1999, and has consistently tested #1 in laser jamming performance. M40 (4 laser modules) and the M20 (2 laser jammer modules) have been replaced in 2007 by the M45 and M25 laser jammers, which now proves better than the Anti-Laser tested above. |

| This is a breakdown of the Laser Pro Park laser jamming performance results from Guys of Lidar laser jammer test in April 2007. Laser Pro Park is another copy of the Laser Interceptor, as was the Laser Defender, which did not test well at the GOL laser jammer test. The Laser Pro Park scored 4th in performance behind the Laser Interceptor and Blinder M40 laser jammers. |

The new Laser Interceptor laser jammer was evaluated by 1stRadarDetectors. Travelling to Munich, Germany in October 2007 to meet with Ivan Rukavina, President of Laser Interceptor to evaluate the new Laser Interceptor laser jammer, which is offered as an LI-2 DUAL laser jammer with two laser modules, and the LI-4 QUAD HP laser jammer, which provides 4 laser jammer modules and even more power. The High power version comes in two modles LI-4 HP and LI-2 HP with 2 solid state laser (SSL) laser jammer modules. The unique feature is that the Li-2 and Li-4 operate as a laser jammer or a parking collision device. And it has FEW LASER JAMMING CODES to a laser gun, which means the person using the laser gun is not notified of a jamming sequence, even when the LI-2 and LI-4 is blanking the laser gun display. During 2007, a group of testers, Guys of Lidar, got together and tested a number laser jammers available in 2007. Guys of Lidar tested Laser Interceptor, Blinder M45, Laser Pro Park, Anti-Laser to name a few of the competitors. The test was conducted only to see who was best at jamming, but there was no concern with whether the products were production units that customers could buy, or prototypes. In my opinion, this is not a good way to test, as prototypes are frequently used to get good results. As a follow up in 2008, Guys of Lidar tested products again primarily focusing on Laser Interceptor and Blinder, as these two products are essentially the two laser jammers that are worth purchasing. I disagree with Guys of Lidar 2008 test procedures however, when Blinder requested to participate, they indicated no manufacturers were permitted to join the test, but later it was discovered that Laser Interceptor was permitted to join the test. If this was the case, showing favor to one company and not being equally fair to all players is not the proper way to conduct a test. As with all laser jammers, the laser modules must be installed in the front grille of your vehicle and rear license plate to defeat laser guns, front and rear, used today. The LI2 offers two laser diode jammers. The Laser Interceptor provides three functions: 1) Laser Jamming; 2) Laser Self Test; 3) Parking Collision Avoidance Laser Interceptor provides a smaller laser jammer module. The sensor circuit has a special infrared lens that focuses LIDAR laser light onto the detection and amplification circuit; and passes impulses emitted by a Laser Gun, thus false alerts from sunlight and reflections are minimized. The main component of the transmitter is a solid state, laser diode, found in LIDAR and military ranging devices. When it jams a laser gun, The LI-4 and Li-2 prevent nearly all jamming codes to the laser gun. Voice Alerts are standard. And you can tailor the voice alerts with a variety of software audio files. Use the Anti-Collision Mode on the Highway and the Laser Protection Mode off-road. The Cockpit Interface Module includes an audio alert, microprocessor circuit, power switch and fuse. The Power Switch acts as a 2 way switch to switch modes from laser jamming and Parking assistant/laser test mode. The interface module also incorporates an RS232 connector, allowing the user to connect the interface to your computer, connect to an upgrade link, and upgrade the microprocessor to the latest jamming capabilities. When detecting a laser signal, the Laser Gun Display goes blank when receiving the Li-4 jamming signal. No speed is detected, giving you time to safely adjust your speed, and there are no jamming codes indicated by the laser gun. The Li-4 Laser Module is mounted vertically or horizontally in the front grille, depending on the grille design; and vertically on the rear license plate to take up the least amount of space. It is water proof, highly resistant to false alerts from sunlight, light reflections, rain, salt and extreme temperatures. The interface and power switch are located in the cockpit. The Li-4 quad Laser Jammer provides superb protection against all laser guns, front and rear. And the LI-4 Quad HP increases laser jamming power with stunning results.
Guys of Lidar, GOL, have tested the Laser Interceptor in 2007 and concluded the Laser Interceptor was #1 in test for 2007. The Blinder M45 and Laser Pro Park was tested as well. But Laser ProPark seems to be fading in sales, so it would seem the only two really good laser jammers on the market today are the Laser Interceptor and Blinder M45 laser jammers. I do not believe the 2008 Guys of Lidar laser jammer test was conducted in an objective manner. If Blinder was refused participation, and Laser Interceptor was permitted to join the test, that would not be an objective test method. If Laser Interceptor was indeed permitted to tweak their LI laser jammer for each laser gun tested, the laser jammer test results would be mis-leading. The products were tested for JTG performance and jamming codes. False noise alerts and failure rates were not tested or discussed. Blinder M45 provided excellent results as well. Product Reliability or failure rates are not usually discussed during these tests. Our selling history of Blinder would indicate a failure rate of 1% to 2%, which is industry standard. Blinder supports warranty very well, so is not an issue. We do not have Product Reliability and failure rates for Laser Interceptor, other than hearsay. 1stRadarDetectors analysis of Guys of Lidar laser tests in 2007 would indicate the Laser Interceptor provided the best laser jamming performance in 2007; but it does not appear the 2008 Guys of Lidar laser jammer review was conducted in an objective manner. Thus at best, the Laser Interceptor and Blinder M45 are equal in performance for 2009; until an objective test is conducted with only production "out of the box" products, and not permitting any modifications of the tested products during the laser test. |
