Police Laser Gun - Pro Laser II

[TgaGuy]

Hi All.

I have got myself a Kustom Signals Pro Laser II hand held speed gun.

If anyone wants to see how well they work or want to test their bikes visibility or jammer equipment, feel free to contact me and we can arrange a time/place. A small fee of about $50 to cover my time and I get some $'s back to cover the cost of the lidar is not too unreasonable I hope. Testing will have to be after hrs or weekends as I do have a job. Discretion kept.

This is for testing in the Tga/Mt area.

I have only had it a week so far. The best reading I have had is a car traveling away from me doing 96k at 1010meters. see pic.

Ive found its harder to get a lock with vehicles travelling toward than away. But have had cars oncoming at over 700m.

Have targeted bikes but cannot recall how that went. Will have a play in the mean time.

The pro laser II is rated at 4500ft (1371m).

how the hell did you get your sticky little paws on one of those? those old lasers are heaps better than the new ones the cops use, ping people at greater distances im told.

Welcome to the site TgaGuy, what on earth inspired you to buy one of those?
Hope you get few interested as it could be fun to find out if jammers are working.

By the way there are are a group of us in TGA that meet at Drivers bar on Thurs
evenings, your welcome to check it out.
Here's the link to the thread Link Thingy

Like this one at 1448m, only rated for 1371m. (4500ft), this was taken last night from the overbridge at barkes corner right down to the oropi roundabout. Shooting the back of the car. It shows -46. 46kph receeding (travelling away). if the - sign was missing it would be travelling towards the gun.

I have done some sums, which suggest a good laser at moderate range would be quite tricky to jam if you were reliant on blasting more energy back at the unit than it was expecting. But, now we have a test unit available, it might be time to get the soldering iron out. They may well hate several reflections at slightly different times, or lots of other possibilities..

[TgaGuy]

Im not convinced you need to overpower the unit with IR, however i think all you would need to do, as you said, is add extra return pulses when the lidar is looking for them. I believe the PL2 pulses at 100 pulses/sec? . if you return pulsed at an interval inbetween each pulse emitted, then the gun would see too many recieved (reflected + jammer pulses) compared with what what transmitted, thereby confusing the gun. I think the PL3 is higher again, have read it somewhere but cant quote figures.

I believe the laser requires about 30 consistent pulses and returns and then averages them to give a speed. Takes 0.3 seconds.

just be careful that some one dosnt call the cops saying "theres some guy with a gun pointing it at cars on the over bridge and he aint a cop" it wouldnt be the first time it sparked an armed call out, or do you have a scanner aswell?

Lets go police the police!!! Then we can post our traffic infringements to Police headquarters.

Oh that'd be a riot. I know just the road (and no, it's not near a donut shop).

There is absolutely no way you could tag a bike at that distance though, too streamlined and no real flat surfaces to reflect off.

thats actually a good idea, my works in a 50mkh zone and i swear to god sum of them blaze past at 100-140. would love to sting them 4 that

Do you ever see cars with compact discs dotted about the front windscreen? These tossers actually believe that the CD's will deflect the laser or radar police use, how precious!!!!!!!
