Just finished installing a LaserStar Jammer. Photo's for those that are interested...

 

What is a Laserstart Jammer?

 

It detects and jams laser based speed guns that cops use.

And this thing is on all the time? Then you are setting off everybody's detectors.

 

No no, its an active system--not on all the time. It detects then jams, and alerts you; so that you may slow down, then turn the system off so the cop can get a legal reading.

 

where is it?

 

clean install!

 

the blocky thing below the license plate I assume...

 

ah....

 

wow. nice edit with the last photo!

and legend - in the 3rd pic, look at the switch with the green light. that's my best guess as to what/where it is.

 

pretty cool

 

Right. Below plate, center.

Basically a cat5 cable runs from the transceiver to inside the cabin via the rubber firewall grommit (i poked a hole).

The kit came with a typical 70's style toggle switch that looked like it belonged in a NASCAR car. So I picked up a matching toggle switch from Allied Electronics.

ACC power is from the cigarette lighter.

 

Hehe thanks. Took that this weekend when I did a few early morning runs along the Kancamagus highway here in NH: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kancamagus_Highway

 

wow.. it's stuff like that that makes me want to live on the east coast.

 

East coast livin has its perks =)

We even got roads of death European style(no guardrails with 1000 foot drop off):

..that guy needs an 8 and a pair of *****.

 

aren't blinders illegal? and kinda a bad idea to post pictures of your car with your license plate advertising the fact that it's equipped?

 

Laser is governed by the FDA so it's legal to jam; radar is not, as its regulated by the FCC.

 

That is true, but it can also be regulated by the states. It is illegal to use in my state.

 

Is it just me or does the appearance package lip on the 40th An RX8 look different compared to the other AP lips?

 

^ It is just you. They're the same to me. :D

 

It is illegal to jam any laser used by any law enforcement agency. Lasers are regulated by the government so when you jam them you can be arrested. Laser jammers are for off-road use only.

 

how come maryland has no laws concerning laser jammers?

 

well, if you're going to buy a laser jammer, Laser Star is one of the best to buy.

Looks clean, and makes me want to spend money.

 

I was gonna be in the market for these soon after I got my double din installed.. i haven't heard much about this type of laser jammer.. how does it compare to the blinder? (any blinder version i suppose)

 

Why would speed-ranging laser be regulated by the Food and Drug Administration? I'd like to see a source for it, if it's in fact true.

I think the installation is very nice looking, though..
