Has this happened to anyone else? My first two experiences with the blinder, and they were both falses.
One was at dawn, driving away from the sun- there was a crystler mini van to my right and it started alerting. the other was at night, with no cars around. 99% sure that there were no cops shooting laser....
Anyone have any idea if the new blinders are proned to falsing?
Uh oh, i hope this isn't a "bug" on the horizon..
my j16's do it alot when u get to close in sun behind certian cars or vans on sunnys days here in tx or my strobes on in the dark next to a ref. sign, plate, brinks, and all infinitis suv's w night vision coming at you... i got lock em up and wait look around then either its laser or false,,,, so i know for sure when my RD goes off at same time
I was worried if the new Blinder's extra sensitivity would come with come at the expense of extra false alerts.
Mine went off today while I was driving through town. I didn't see a LEO, but it's possible one was hiding somewhere. My RD didn't pick it up, but that wouldn't be a surprise either way.
I will check on this for everyone. Something to try is reprogram the unit into USA mode because of less guns in that mode.It only has guns used in the US so filter is tighter....I was told by Denmark that the USA mode would false less than than the European mode...But I will ask about it today!
Tom I know your is in USA mode because I programmed it that way.
Mine is in USA mode. I didn't know that blinder upped the sensitivity, I don't see why they would do that- I mean doesn't it only need to detect laser when you are being shot? The m-20 series didnt false and alerted beautifully
:hairfire:
Upping the sensitivity gives the Blinder a larger coverage radius. The M27 I shot the other day had noticably better coverage than previous Blinder versions I've shot at before. If the car I shot at the other day had an M20 on it instead of a M27, I would have been able to drill the corner of the headlights and get easy PTs.Quote:
