    Default x50 and laser?

    How great is the laser detection? I have a low mount and a teal green cavalier.. I hear the V1 picks up laser 99% of the time.. and the passport isnt so handy with laser? What do you guys think? The first time I ever saw a cop using laser I got a alert as soon as i came over an embankment, but even with Veil (i'm getting ready to order) would it be safe until I got a jammer?

    Honestly, I wouldn't depend on it. From farther out, the X50 will pick up a hit most of the time. Once you start getting closer (400 ft or less) it'll start being very iffy, if at all. And then, there is the question of how much time Veil will buy you, if any (depending on how close they are shooting you.)

    The only time I've seen laser on it, I could see the trooper's smile before the X50 went off. I was following traffic though so he didn't pull me over, and the car in front might've blocked the signal. But overall it was weak.

    Yea! I've read up that the blinder isnt as swell as its advertised, and i've watched at least 30 youtube videos of test etc and read the GOL test. I want rear protection too so i'm going to get the dual head. Just as soon as my summer job rolls around when school goes out

    Hoestly I see no reason for someone to trust a detector and passive measure will save them.....Save money and get a jammer even something with the performance of the Blinder M20 or Escort ZR3 or a single head LPP/AL/LD might be enough to get you to slow down
