I'm a very pragmatic person when it comes to things like this - my point-of-view is that if you're a habitual speeder, you're going to get nailed, at some point, *no matter what*.Originally Posted by muledoe1
The problem is that although today, LIDAR presents what may be the most significant threat, there's other stuff out there that's, again IMveryHO, even more "deadly" - I/O radar, VASCAR (airborne or roadway), and even the tried-and-true art of "pacing" - if you habitually speed, no matter how careful you are, you're bound to get nailed at one point or another.
Just like modding cars, the old saying of "you've gotta pay to play" also applies here.
I'm a firm believer of this.
In any case, yes, the LI is considered top-of-the-line now, but even with its protection, you're still not totally immune. Those three enforcement scenario I addressed above are just a few of your concerns, and add to that you still have to deal with LIDAR scenarios that are simply just bad-luck. If, for example, your vehicle's positioning on the roadway somehow caused your jammers to not receive an incoming signal (i.e. nose-down attitude, while the engagement comes from, say, an overpass, at close-range), you'll still be in trouble.
Nothing is for-certain - all you can do is just to do your best and pray, but expect the worst.

Note here also, since you've specifically mentioned "failure" - to be absolutely fair, the current-generation LI has not yet been on-market long enough to truly have compiled durability/reliability statistics. This is simply an unknown at this point, particularly when examined in-frame of the two other top-flight diode-based jammers, for which both have had enough of a track record for us to know what to expect.
But just as fair, it must also be said that the LI units look, physically, first-hand, to be very durable - and it should also be said that they've enjoyed excellent durability/reliability in their previous-generation iterations overseas.
Still, this cannot go unsaid.

Yes, the LI kit includes a power switch, with LED "power on" indicator, which also serves well as a night-time position/pilot marker for tactical disengagement.does the LI have a off switch so when I do get hit and say I am going over. onces I bring my speed down I can turn it off so that theofficer does not get suspicious?
