Does anyone know where i can get my lrc 100 jammer tested hopefully in south east area.
On sunday i came across a speedtrap in laindon, a type of camera on a stand with a square box on the side of the cam. My bel 550 never went off so no radar but also my lrc was silent as it as been since fitting 2 months ago.
The camera was aiming directly at oncoming traffic coming down hill.

Luckily i was doing 30mph.

Anyone know of a tester & what sort of cam it was?

Sounds like a good idea.

look down the left pane under jammer test.

There is also another guy in the reading area (as I recall) thats has one and does the same.

Tiny

Oh yes What A great Idea

Best YOU Get it Sorted then Dude

I too was told of the guy in reading but the e-mail i got for him failed.

The one on ukspeedtraps would mean a trip to staffs.

Good idea to get one at a meet.

For a quick test the device can be triggered with a tv remote and the LEDs can be seen firing by observing through a digi camera. This works with my Snooper sld920 but not sure about the LRC100.

I've tried 6 remotes with no joy.
I've yet to hear of anyone who has with the lrc.

I mailed the manufacturer remote controls will NOT test the lrc 100, as its a different spectrum of light.

the laser poniters that are banned in the uk will though so if you know anyone who bought one a few years back try that.

tried one of them, and a laser range finer, didnt work. There MUST be somewhere I can hire one for a day.

http://www.track-vision.co.uk/radar_gun.htm well, you can buy one...

Credit card please TINY

I have sourced 2 places hiring them. I will call them in the morning.

Im sure your local constabulary would only be too happy to assist you with your experiment

Taking one to a track day would be a good laugh. Anyone that leaves the detector on while going round the track will start bleeping like a darleck!

davek

Top idea, i will make some enquiries too.

don't think the £265 one would work as its laser you need not radar which is very different i think!

Davek,

Im pretty sure those nes point at the back of the car, so unless you have a rear facing jammer, you're stuffed.... Only detects once you're past it, with a narrow band no doubt.

The hire/meet/test idea is a good one and i would definitely be interested!

What i cant understand is my bel 550 goes off at any radar/laser from front or back, but wasn't triggered.

Where are you going for test, is it the ukspeedtrap test?

BuRR

Just be sure the gun that they test you with is the same type of laser device that your local constabulary use!!! There are several types!

Got e-mail back from steve at ukspeedtraps, he said he does testing on 1 weekend a month in burton on trent. It's £40 but will do group discount.
Maybe an alton towers cruise could be incorperated.

As for the camera he said The box system may have been working from strips in the road such as ds2.
Now thats not playing fair.

I have arranged a test day for those interested.

Well last weeks test was cancelled as it was p1ssing down and they dont read properly in the rain , went on saturday instead , I was a bit worried that it isn't working as I've had mine on for a while and not heard a squeek out of it , tried remote controls , camera flashes ect , so met up with the chap , drove off down the road to the roundabout turned around and headed back , as soon as I came round the corner a quick flash () to let him know its me (2000ft away) and bingo , its beeping and flashing its t1ts off , went up and down the road a few times and he found that there were some area's like the top corner of the screen that he could get a reading , so a quick adjustment on the sensor and off again to check , he was very happy with the set up as when it was armed he couldn't get any readings , and so am I , a very happy bunny ,

At least now if I am driving a bit quick and suddenly come into sight of one of these camera's ( which is an everyday occurence in Wales) at least I have some protection , I am thinking of fitting one to the back now.

The tester did say that a sensor is coming out soon to fit on your wall to activate an outside light , so at least you can have a reason to have it fitted
