    Very true, but like a lot on here, I have the switch discretely mounted out of sight. A single, small LED (like the 9500ci has) would be a great addition.
    Maybe one included on a "pin out" type connection that could snap into the wire harness where the speaker and mute wires are if the end user wants to use it?

    What I wouldn't give for Escort to design the "ZR5" jammer that is on par with the LI!

    I love my 9500ci and all of it's great features... It would be so nice to have a worthy jammer to go with it, that displays the gun type on the display, lights up the LED on the dash, and tells me in a pleasant voice, 'shifting - front (or rear)' and to 'please slow down'.
    Then after calmly slowing to PSL (because I know the jammers are doing their job), double tap the mute button and hear 'shifting off', then 1 minute later have it automatically re-enabled and hear 'shifting on' without my intervention.

    It's so frustrating to have the 9500ci and all of it's latest technology, only to have shifters that are way behind the others. I have held off on buying an LI setup for many reasons, not the least of which is the cost of running both systems together, but also the lack of a nice user interface/display with a smart disable button like the Ci has...

    ...Or at least be able to use the LI heads with the Escort CPU.

    Quick disconnects for swapping heads. Also, additional sensing units without transmitters that could be tucked up by headlights. Since detection is the name of the game why not have more sensors than transmitters?

    Just separate front and rear alert on the mute wire for a brake lights kill switch install would be wonderful

    HORRIBLE idea. Then people can just snap them right off the front of your car AND it's just another area that could become unplugged or similar while driving long distances.

    LI is not a portable system.

    I agree but on the same side I also disagree. I'm stuck between fields on this one.

    I agree in the fact that when I park my bike, I sit at starbucks and often see people walk past my bike, then take notice to the jammer heads then proceed to inspect closely. They often look at how it's wired etc. Now if this was an easy disconnect then I am sure a some of them would think. Hey, can I steal this?

    Now what I would like is the ability to unclip the back of the laser head to be able to unsnap the wire there. It still "appears" to be un snappable but upon unbolting two bolts or something, the back end can come undone and from here you can remove the back end and replace that assembly to remount the heads.

    You can use security or highly uncommon bolts to accomplish this.

    The reason I say this is because if I was a person who personally hated jammers because people who JTG put me in hot waters etc. 3 seconds with a razor/knife/scissors puts me 275$ in debt. As far as I know, a snip that close to the head is unrepairable. This is where i could just wire to cliff and say hey, send me that 20$ harness so I can reconnect my laser head instead of 275 bones ya know?

    The ZR4s combined with Veil perform reasonably well, at least for frontal protection against everything but the Stalker. Without Veil, its a crapshoot.

    My 9500ci(ZR4s) without Veil vs PLII:

    Default Disagree. Quick disconnects could be hidden

    Why not do what Lidatek did? Have the leads from the head about 6' long and then a weather proof connection. Kinda hard to unplug it if such is done under the hood! The LE connections "Clicked" into place. No way they were coming apart without some effort.

    I'd also add smaller and removable tips. Threading those big-ass & fragile cat 5 connectors through the firewall is a PITA. Yes, they can be cut, but as Cliff has warned if reinstalled wrong can fry the heads.
