Is there any economical way to test a LI? haha It would be nice if the police would let me borrow one for "educational" purposes for a project. There is no way I have the capital to rent one, because I thought it would be like $40 dollars for a week or something, turns out I was completely wrong lol.
Where are you located? there are members in here who own lidar guns...
Blacksburg, VA
Charlottesville, VA
and Tri Cities, TN
and yes I realize people here have lidar guns, i'm not saying they are charging unreasonable amounts of money, but
$150-200 per week is beyond my budget.
I never mentioned charging anything... the people I know usually test cars for free;)Quote:

oh, haha so is anybody renting lidar guns for free? LoL
Nope. We just shoot others & let others shoot their own car for free. We shot the last two weekends to test a few new set ups. We don't do this as a business, but as a hobby. Find someone in your area that is like the H-Town guys & just like to shoot for fun.Quote:

Its not just the money with these guns also. I had been looking for an Ultralyte in good condition and at a "reasonable" price for the better part of the last 2 years and I only found it in July.
Similarly with my marksman, I have yet to see one as cheap as it was back in December 2007 and its in perfect condition also despite looking shabby on the outside all right.
Prolaser 2s are on ebay often enough but I still got mine cheap by comparison to the ones I've seen since on there.
I would not like to be waiting all that time again to find another of either of them. A lot of US sellers do not ship outside the US also so being in Ireland makes it harder for me.
I have been PMed a few times on here and another forum by members in the UK and Ireland to borrow a laser gun but these were new enough members at the time and I did not trust them with my toys TBH. For all I know, they could be LEOs also :eek:.
I would however be only too glad to test any Irish/UK members set ups personally with these guns and they could use them while I drive their car for them etc but I would be too paranoid to ship them anywhere :o.
