What do you think of this? Its a Radar/Laser scrambler. Im guessing it is something similar to a jammer. They have just the scrambler, or a combo unit with the detector built in. Its pretty cheap to, only $180.

Seriously... they are no good. Put that $180 to use, buy ANYTHING else.

Rocky Mountain is the biggest rip off artist in the business IMO. The one I am talking about comes with the purchase of an F-18. Really, do not waste your money on Rocky Mountain. Also, I think you may want your bubble on your reciever on the inside. You should head over to the LI forum and ask someone there like Ivan about the install.

In the manual it shows the bubble on the outside. I will check that out.
Which jammer are you talking about that comes with an F-18? And is it F-18 as in the jet? I don't mind spending money but I want it to work. If there is nothing good out that anyone could recommend, I will order a few different ones and see which works.

I also tried the LI today with many different lasers, and it didn't detect any of them. I will have to look into this too.

Yes as in the jet!! Seriously, most do not work and there is no real conclusive evidence that any "consumer models" do. Which laser guns did you use?

Scorpion Ultimate Ka may work, but is unreliable and hard to find. You can not run a radar detector with a radar jammer because the jammer would set of the detector all the time. Your best bet would be to get a good radar detector such as the Bel STi-R or the Escort 9500ix, V1 is good but does not offer stealth against spectre units (RDD's).

BTW. I would contact Cliff at LaserInterceptorUSA about your problem he is very knowledgeable and can help you trouble shoot if you are in the U.SA.

I though the radar jammers linked into the radar detector and only transmitted when the radar detector signaled a radar detection.

Bubble on the outside. This comes directly from Cliff at LI. I have had several laser jammers over the last 5-6 years. I feel that LI is the best performer and also the most difficult to install if you are adding rear sensors as well as front. They must be straight and level. Also, great customer service from Cliff. Cost in Us is $1,400 plus $500 or so to install.

$1,400 is the quad setup, but I got the HP quad which is about $2,500 plus about $500 for the install.
I was just on their site, and it looks like they have a new version 8 out. Do you have version 7 or 8?
And the jammer to parking sensor switch seems pretty cool just incase you get stopped. It can also be linked to your V1!?
