laser alert from sun
I notice my 995 m4 is easily set off to alert laser in the afternoon when the sun is lower in the sky. It seems every evening when I'm heading home from work almost everytime I turn into the sun it gives a laser alert. Is this normal? it isn't that old...3707 is date code..Should I think about sending it to bell or leave it alone?
Never ever that happened to my STI, as the matter of fact I have never got any FALSE laser alerts at all, or maybe 2-3, some local airports in US with some huge sat antennas very close to the interstate... it might be something wrong with your RD...
I have a new 955 and it does the same thing. If i'm driving into the sun as its going down it sets off laser alerts. Last night i had to turn it off cause it was just went off constantly. I turned it back on when i headed away from the sun and no false alerts. This happens quite frequently. Luckily the local LEOs here dont use laser and just run c/o Ka.
i have gotten false laser alerts from the sun with my v1...like 5 in a row when i was behind an 18 wheeler which had snow on top of it...as the snow was coming off of it (it was a sunny day) the v1 would go crazy, so i guess when the sun hit the tiny snow particles the light they reflected was the same as a laser gun?
wow, never had this on my 995...
In the few months I've had my STi, I have had only ONE laser false. It was on the NYS Thruway by the airport, where I would get laser falses from my X50 all the time. No cops around whatsoever...my guess is that it could have been from the sun.
Happened to me just this morning, <Bel 955> I was wondering about this, and I was going to post the same question !

I almost always get the laser alert when driving directly into the sun on a clear day. I have two 940's and they both do it.
Again, a good RD never reacts negatively to some very normal weather conditions and the STI apparently is a pretty darn good RD
my XR-950 (v995) does the same thing, i have never gotten a false radar alert but get false laser all the time.
