    Default Blinder M25 Alert Sound...

    Just curious. It makes a very loud, high pitch sound on start up. Makes the same sound after the self test sequence is complete. I haven't got tagged with Laser yet. My question is, what sound does the Blinder make when you get tagged with a true LIDAR shot? Is it a constant, high pitch, or different? I know I'm going to Sh*t bricks when I hear it go off the first time.

    It makes the same tone at start up and will continue that same tone until 6seconds after it stop detecting laser

    Here is a video where you can hear the alert

    Constant, high pitched. I think it's meant to make the user want to shut it off after getting to PSL.

    And yea, you might **** a brick or two.

    That's actually not a bad theory! The LI definitely gets your attention and prompts you to slam on the brakes. But it doesn't annoy the shyte out of you to the point that you are in a hurry to end the noise by turning it off. The Blinder makes you want to turn it off so quickly that you might actually do it too soon, lol.

    Wasn't the case this morning, man 2 hours of sleep and having to wake up to go pick my bro-in-law up I was zoning out, didn't even realize what was going on, I could have been toast had it not been for the wife co-piloting and sh1tting a brick when the alert when off
