RadarDetector.net - People who wear suits

Peleg · 07-04-2008, 08:07 AM

I was being semi active on radardetector.net

Being around forums for a while now.

Anyways, I was discussing the Valentine 1 and the Radar detection system called K40.

Before I know it, my account is banned for good. No warnings, nothing just like that.

I searched and searched and didn't see anything about K40.

I emailed the admin and here was the response:

"Legal stuff that we cannot discuss, that is why the ban

Not my decision, decision of people wearing suits"

So there you have it, a site being moderated by people wearing suits.

Enough said.

sounds like a legality thing that they didn't want to deal with. were you ever warned?

***solovus*** · 07-04-2008, 08:17 AM

Can you post what you posted there in this forum...I'd like to see the offending content.

***ToeKutter*** · 07-04-2008, 08:19 AM

Then you'll get banned from here next....

I happened to be one of the old timers here, so I doubt that would happen.

I was just talking about my preference of a V1 concealed and a seperate LIDAR jammer vs. a complete K40 system.

I was never warned at all.

I can't paste the content of the thread because they deleted it.

Upon further investigation, I realized K40 tried to take legal action against a friend of that site who wanted to test their system, tested and proved that it doesn't work. So now everything is clear.

Anyways, I'm dong with that site.

***ToeKutter*** · 07-04-2008, 08:36 AM

So basically what you're saying K40 is crap, huh? You'd recommend V1 + LIDAR?

No, I'm saying that's my personal preference, I have no experience with K40.

I'd say V1 concealed and Laser Pro Park or Laser Interceptor would be a pretty damn good setup.

I correspondent with the admin via email and I just don't like his attitude. He punishes people without giving them the benefit of the doubt first or a chance to correct themselves and this kind of behavior isn't inline with my personal values.

How much does a good setup cost? Where can I go to get some good reviews on a "Never gonna catch me" setup? I thought laser was Line of sight and there wasn't anyway around it.

Laser (AKA: LIDAR) is effective at around 1/4 of a mile +/-.......the operator aims at the license plate or the headlights, the beam travels at the speed of light, bounces off the car and goes back through a second receiver to the gun. The gun's onboard computer knows the time it took the beam to travel back and forth and how far it traveled. (Distance) / (Time) = your speed.

The LIDAR operates at 904 nm wavelength @ 33 MHz.

V1 - $400, you can get it used, but it can turn into a hassle if the unit is stolen or outdated.

concealed display kit - $40

Hardwire kit - $40

carry case is another $40.

The jamming systems go from $400 to $1000, depending on the make, model and how many jamming pods you get. Most people run 2 jamming pods in front.

Out the door, I'd say you can get a great system for $1500. It would cover everything, well, except aircraft.

No such thing as a "never gonna catch me", unless u're running a Scorpion which is highly illegal and not available anymore.

That system wasn't proven to work as far as I hear.
