Statie? Where did you get zapped? I used to live in West Falmouth and commuted between BOS and PVD... lots of miles and occasional blasts.

I don't think anything is good for lidar unless:

1) you're following somebody and pick up the signal that blasts the guy in front of you just in time to slow down

2) you have a K40 system (or similar system) with a laser jammer in the front

Sounds familiar... I was only on the gas for a very short jaunt. I was already cruising back down when I saw him coming up in my rearview.

Jammers do work. Radar is good for just overall prescence , but anywhere running laser, you need a jammer. By the time a laser detector alarm goes off, the LEO has a reading already

The laser jammers do work. Look to Laser Interceptor and Blinder M27/M47 for the best performance.

I just purchased the Laser Interceptor and will be installing in a few weeks.

This is not an option.

I do at least 10 to 15 over wherever I go...80 is a nice round number and the 65mph highways are nice and open here.
