MJ,
The latest CPU is the 7.06 which is the new TruSpeed Enabled CPU with the TruSpeed Voice Alert.
The latest Sensor Version is 8.5.

Thanks Cliff. Thats a bit of a ball ache then! the message I got was,
"Hi Matty,
Yes, arrived at the end of last week, they are all the latest spec. :
CPU : Rev. 2.8 / Ver. 7.05
Slim laser heads : Ver 8.5
Normal laser heads : Ver 8.5"
But If CPU ver. 7.06 Is being shipped with the truspeed updates looks like Christos was right!!
No aches actually. If you purchased a 7.05 CPU from LI-USA, you can Upgraded your CPU shortly. :) If you purchased from another distributor, contact that Distributor for Upgrade info. as this UPGRADE has just been released and policies differ from Distributor to Distributor.

I haven't bought any yet Cliff that's why I emailed LI UK and got that reply saying they had the newest heads and CPU in stock which now I have checked, the CPU they have Isn't the newest version. Christos said LI UK had old versions and that's why I checked first still not impressed being lied to unless It was a genuine mistake on his part (LI UK rep).
Hi Maty,
I cannot speak for Dave in The UK but that is the current up to date info as you requested and I am obligated to offer. With that said, I'm sure Christos will be able to accommodate your needs and if not, I will gladly assist you or Christos in any manner I can.

Some questions, I have 8.0 heads and version 6.09, Am I protected against All laser gun in the USA. I read about the new Truspeed gun, does the LI NOT jam it at all or just jam it as a "unknow gun".
Also, is there a way to upgrade the newest software (seeing how I have the oldest version) and heads in my LI?

Please follow the UPDATE CPU Thread located on The Li User's Forum for more information on the subject as well as to the timetable to purchase this Upgrade for your LI found here:

AJ
AJ,
Here is a chart on the differences:
6.09: The 07 GOL version
6.12: Added NJL SCS-102 (Currently NOT utilized in the USA)
6.14: Stalker LZ-1 II (new model >2004) eliminated E-04 code
6.15: Stalker LZ-1 I (old model <2004) further tuned for perfection, i.e E-04 further reduced.
6.20: Change in component supplier
6.21: Change in component supplier
6.22: TruSpeed Enabled Variant for older 6.xx Variant users (Not yet available)
7.01: Added Robot TraffiPatrol XR (Currently NOT utilized in The USA)
7.02: Minor bugfix
7.03: Added Riegl FG21-P (Currently NOT utilized in The USA)
7.04: Fixed Riegl LR90-235/P (Currently NOT utilized in The USA)
7.05: Added TruSpeed Algo
7.06: Added TruSpeed Voice Alert
Sensor Hardware Versions:
8.0, 8.1: Identical
8.2: XR Jamming Enabled
8.5: Minor changes and small bug fix
Warning: XR jam enabled requires hardware modification, thus 8.2.

Thanks again AJ
As Ivan has noted, there are hardware differences, noted in the chart as well, that preclude 6.xx CPU Variant Users from advantageously upgrading to 7.06 CPUs because of the incompatibility of the 8.0 and 8.1 sensors with the Ver. 7.06 CPU. As the only difference is that of XR jamming capabilities and as The TraffiPatrol XR is NOT used here in The USA, there is no real need for you and other 6.xx CPU Variant Users in non-XR populated areas to upgrade. It also goes without saying therefor, that if you indeed do have 8.5 sensors, you may indeed upgrade to a 7.06 but again, as there is no XR here in the USA, same logic applies.
Hope this helps?

Cheers Cliff. I understand. I have just replied to Dave to see If he will have the 7.06 CPU. I have been In contact with Christos recently and would gladly order from him If the GBP to EURO exchange rate was better. I would be paying approx 90 USD more getting from Christos than Dave. I know Christos has the latest CPU and his CS Is top drawer but for the extra I can't justify It yet.Quote:

Hi Maty,
Here is the link to The LI User's Forum thread with all the pertinent information on the CPU Upgrade:

When do you expect the 6.22 CPU upgrade to be available?
AJ
Thanks Cliff:thumb2:
My pleasure! :)Quote:

Thank you for your patience.

Cliff you are really fast ! Flash man :)
Maty, I hope you solved all your questions.
Feel free to contact if you have further questions.
Is there a means to tell CPU version without powering it up and connecting to a computer? Just haven't had chance to install it until now and debating whether to install or send in for upgrade.
Cliff would you might know by any chance if I'm at least version 7.x? I purchased my unit end of April from you via eBay. The sensors do say version 8.5 on the label.
TIA
If you bought it on Ebay you probably did not buy it from Cliff. Could have been someone pretending to be Cliff. I don't think Cliff has ever sold on Ebay but I could be wrong. Keep your fingers crossed. I seen a couple a while back on Ebay and remember Cliff and Ivan saying not to buy them because there was no warranty because they were not a legitimate distributor.....

Cliff- LI-USA
Many thanks Cliff for the quick reply and update. My apologies as I should have noticed the sticker on the CPU. Yes it's listed as 7.03.
I should've installed my unit long ago as I got zapped with laser this past weekend for 83 in 65 on the Ohio turnpike. #@$*&!
Lesson learned.
No problem!
LI is good but not that good. :D

IIRC in the days when Elvis was the US distributor, Cliff, before his own status with LI became official via Ivan's announcement earlier this summer (REF: http://www.radardetector.net/forums/...w-usa-rep.html), did sell on eBay (REF: http://www.radardetector.net/forums/...elling-li.html).Quote:

By the date of his purchase, as well as his direct inquiry to Cliff, I think that this would be what pds22 referred to, above, and can be seen by Cliff's customer-service address to him, here. :)
CURRENTLY, there are no legitimate-source LI's on eBay, for the North-American market.
Gotta buy through Cliff, and LI-NA, to get warranty! :)
