I have this since October 2013, it never detects any Laser signal even from 10m distance, where I live the police only use laser radar. How u did it?

Very few depts. use laser. They might not be using laser as much as you think. Mine picks up all other bands here, (KA, K, X) from a mile away. If your picking up other bands from a good distance, I would say your detector is working fine.

Not entirely sure what you're asking. It had an X, K and KA bands. The button on the far right (I think) let's you choose to get rid of the X which it the noise you get from grocery stores and such. Mine works like a champ and even yesterday beeped for a police car long before i saw it.

I also purchased a Laser Jammer, this will give no reading back to the Police laser unit just displays 3 little dashes on the laser unit in the police car. They have no number to reference.

Police radars mainly use "k" & "ka" alerts. Other car radar detectors use most of the others, so I recommend checking those off the menu list as I did. In town shops with automatic doors will set of the police alerts, and if you pass them often enough, you'll recognize them. Highway driving with the police alert going off briefly with no police in front or behind might be a police car going in the other direction or hills/median concrete walls causing the signal to break up intermittently.

I have no idea bro... The only wireless signal that this radar detector transmits to is the Adaptiv audio indicator ear piece...

995 has front AND REAR laser detection.But, you are rarely if ever hit with Laser from behind!!Why would a cop do that then have to chase you down ??

I would say they weren't using their radar or had it turned off. Some patrol cars don't even have radar. The unit is very sensitive and will definitely pick up a signal. Mine has saved me from 3 tickets in the few months i've had it.

No, mine works good, the only thing i dont like about it is the little plastic piece that holds up the radar on the windshield is weak and if not supported thr device will hang, so i mount this device above my rear view mirror so the mirror helps hold it up, other than that it works great, except when cop uses instant on, that suks but not really radars fault

No. We have lots of them and they never set it off. I have also found out it never detects hand held laser speed guns until the cop pulls the trigger. So this helps if you are not in the front of the pack and they are shooting someone else. I saw a motorcycle cop and braked way before this went off. It is a helpful gadget, but not perfect.

I am pretty sure that there is not an actual.laser that beans out. I think it works with a cold.cathode and optical sensors .

I have used mine up to 150 ft with no problem, I would highly recommend that you get the laser detector to go with it though. It gets hard to see the laser the farther you get but with the laser detector it is easy!

It does everything I want, and works well. I always have the detector on, and the laser function is great. The price and value is very good, and over time I give any detector about 2 and 1/2 years and then it's replacement time. They simply seems to lose effectiveness after that timeframe, so I would never spend a great deal of money for one.

Honestly, i only turn the one i bought, on when i'm driving long distances or if it is really late at night, it only works when a cop has his radar on. I like that it can detect in front and behind. that's worth the money. Also the other features are just if you're prone to getting pulled over

I think so. I went on a 15 year hiatus without a detector, about the time they began using lasers. After getting tagged in town 3 times, with only having to pay one, I decided to return to a tool. It works very well for me, has everything I need.

Hi Mike, was just using mine today indoors and it worked. Picked up a strike 11 miles out, which according to radar was about right.

It detects cameras and speed traps (that's the main reason I bought it) but with both you have to keep in mind if it's a laser you usually don't stand a chance to react (or it may not even alert you if the officer is good and doesn't shout the windshield) and some cameras shout you in the back just when you pass them so it's almost no time to react. Hope this helped

No it does not detect red light cameras. It detects most forms of radar except the most modern, like Proline, that shoot a radar beam about the size of a softball. Really no detectors pick those unless the detection is whole car or happens to be place where the softball sized beam is pointed. In Florida where I live police are not using the newest forms of radar, so it works fine and has never missed a detection here. But when I was in Atlanta October 2014, I got a ticket from a cop using in Proline radar gun.
