    I've done research on multiple websites in to different laser and radar detectors. I am running out of time. I need to know which is actually best for laser and Radar protection. My impression according to different websites is the AL Priority is the best laser defense and the STIr Plus is the best radar but the local installers here are telling me the latest *** is best.
    I must be undetectable to to popo.
    Is there a link to a website or comparison proving out what is best? And more future proof along with durability,etc?
    Thank you

    There are plenty of resources online to research, concerning the various ACMs that are currently available. The primary players today are AntiLaser Priority, Blinder HP-905, Escort Laser Shifter Pro , and Laser-Interceptor. The current Escort model is currently based upon a recent version of the LI. The ALP is the newest kid on the block which has been creating a lot of "buzz" of late in the enthusiast community. The ALP is not currently offered by RadarBusters and this is a RB owned forum. So if you wish to conduct further research use Google or your favorite web search engine. The Blinder is a hybrid diode/led jammer (only of its kind) that is proving to be very effective and has very small sensor heads, making it great for tight or discreet installations.

    There is on test group that has been doing a lot recent testing of the ALP. That group is called RALETC There is another test group called ECCTG. Between these two groups, I would expect you could find just about anything you need to know from the guys who have been conducting thorough closed course testing.

    At this point all of the models are very effective, although it appears, at least for the moment, according to some that the ALP has the advantage when confronted with the latest VRP (variable pulse rate) police lidars.

    If you are concerned about your "parking sensor" system causing JAM codes. That could be a problem. I am not aware of any ACM that hasn't at one point or another caused a JAM code to appear on certain police lidars. If you choose to operate an ACM in one of the states, provinces, or countries where they have been outlawed, better do your research as to the penalties if you are caught. Years ago, a user of an ACM in Hong Kong, had his new Mazda 6 confiscated and never returned for having been caught with a jammer. Also, don't be fooled by nonsense "sales-speak" either. Any Escort or Beltronics laser jammer, branded "shifter" is merely a jammer. These products don't "shift" anything. They jam. Period.

    One final mention. If you are very concerned about JAM codes, you should consider looking into Laser Veil.

    That's my company's laser stealth coating. It is a passive countermeasure designed to reduce the reflectivity of laser that the POPOs use. Veil absorbs police lidar instead of attempting to interfere with it as a jammer would. Veil is especially effective when used in tandem with an ACM and costs a fraction of what a jammer/parking system and give's you the best of both worlds. I call that it the defense-in-depth approac and will give the your the most robust defense you can get regardless of what ACM you ultimately choose.

    Good luck in your quest to find the right solution and welcome to RD.net!
