    Default Intro from new guy in DFW

    Hello everyone,

    My name is John. I live northeast of Dallas,TX. I'm self employed and drive around 4000-5000 miles a month. I have a 2000 VW Golf TDI that I work out of.

    I have a Valentine One V1.8 and a Lidatek LE-30 Jammer in the car. I've had the V1 for about 3 years and the Jammer for 2 years.

    I just recently installed the LE-30 in my golf from my previous work car, which was also a Golf TDI. I got it hooked up and working with no issues. Just the other day, I noticed that I wasn't getting the second "beep" from the speaker. I drove about 200 miles today, working, and was hoping I would come across a cop shooting laser.(not that I would ever want to get caught in a speed trap) I "luckily" came across a cop firing laser, and sure enough, my jammer didn't do a damn thing.

    I'm looking for any assistance with what might be the problem, as I've known that Lidatek went out of business a few years ago.

    Thanks in advance,

    John

    Welcome to the forum. Just curious, where in DFW did you get hit with laser and how are you certain that the LE-30 is busted? I live in Allen and was planning on helping a guy out that missed the DFW jammer test meet last Saturday by shooting his setup with my Laser Atlanta, if you want to join and see if the jammers are completely busted you're welcome to. The earliest I could do this little test is next Saturday or Sunday afternoon but that is only if the job I am working on in NE Alabama is finished by next Friday and if he is available to test at that time. Otherwise it would have to be sometime after the first week of August.

    Time for an upgrade to Blinder or LI.

    Welcome to the club.

    Golf TDI - great car. I ran 250,000 miles on my last TDI. Engine was still in great shape but supporting hardware broke it.

    Did your jammer at least warn it was getting hit?

    Do you know for sure that the LEO targeted you with his Lidar?

    Please explain the symptoms of what you are experiencing with your LE-30 that makes you believe it is not working properly.
