A bargain
Up North I paid 50 bucks, close under 110 km/h – the cop had trouble with his wife short before, I guess so - grumpy old bugger

The bad news... The second generation cameras (the ones you see in the back of station wagons) can catch vehicles travelling either towards or away from them, and can operate across EIGHT lanes of traffic. They can also fire off lots of photos real quick, so don't bother trying to tailgate someone else hoping you won't get snapped. These bastards are designed to make money...

Surely they still stick out the back though? Which means you've still got the distance between when you see it and when you pass it to slow before it can get you. and if it's on your side, then you still have no number plate! Huzzah!

of course... then the pricks turn up with lasers and you're back in the dogbox before you can say 'pig'.

They should just call them Police ATM's

Hey Knuckles, does the jammer work on speed cameras?

[denill]

I have a jammer which sits on a shelf in my shed.

Feedback I have gained indicates it is doing as much good there as it would if it was sitting on the ST besides the Bel.

The sad fact of the matter is that most jammers simply don't work. A good site which explains police radars and tests various detectors and jammers is www.radar.co.nz. If you want kit that really works, you'll be up for $1000 or so brand new. There's some good deals to be had on www.trademe.co.nz - that's where I got my detector.

I also understand that the Bel LE 850 jammer works well from independent reports I've seen. It fires for 5 seconds then goes into a 1 minute recycle. The manufacturers claim this is "social responsibility". Bollocks - it needs time to cool down before it can fire again.
