Radenso the other day I was going by an officer it was on the side of the road aiming a gun at me and my radar detector was not going off but on Waze I had known that he was there for what I can see he might have been using a laser gun I can't wait till you guys make a radar detector that blocks laser along with radar detector that would be the ultimate awesome radar detector.
Just saying jamming laser detectors is ILLEGAL in just about every state if you want to jam laser detectors Ive heard you could put scrunched up foil balls in your doors but I’m not 100% sure so do it at your own risk lol
Got 2 tickets within 2 days from mrcd roadside enforcement vehicles.. then today got a last minute notification from radar. Not very pleased with my radenso prom.. 2 years with my uniden r3 and 0 tickets.
Hey guys thanks for the update. Question about laser radars, since radar detectors don't detect lasers being a light source beam, I have a black car with a black grill, so how does the color of my car affect laser radar? does it have to reflect back to laser gun for it to work? I don't use a front plate in my state so that does not apply. Maybe I should just tinfoil my whole front end of the car and really mess with those guns, I wrap my key fob in tin foil to prevent my key from being hacked. In your next video can you speak to who pays or sponsors the cites and maybe state troopers for the new radar equipment, my suspicion is insurance companies.
When you're shooting it from that close of a range, you are over-driving the detector which causes this. Sometimes, if you're right up close it won't even detect because it's so overloaded. Backing up a few feet, or aiming the gun in the opposite direction fixes it. We just didn't think of it in the video, to be honest!
@@dwightgreen9642 Response time can mean a few different things from a technical standpoint, but what I think you are asking is "how fast does the detector alert me to a radar threat." The answer to this is that it changes depending on a combination of settings and testing conditions so it is difficult to give a single answer. The fastest response time will generally be with all filters off and when the detector is not overdriven. It's basically instant at that point. When you turn on filters you will slightly impact response time, but what you saw in this video is basically worst case scenario - filters on, and the detector overdriven. So in the real world, the response time will be somewhere in between these two extremes.
@@RadensoRadar I would have suspected with the detector in highway mode it would be a it's best sensitivity but I perfectly get the overdriven part of your answer.I am looking for a detector that response well to instant on and quick triggering as in your demo. if it misses an instant on in real world driving no matter what the distance then what you have is an expensive windshield decor.
@@randyjohnson805 @Randy Johnson Hi Randy, luckily this has been extensively tested by the community! If you are an intermediate member of rdforum, you will be able to view these tests by the TXCTG. The Pro M clocked in with a perfect performance detecting KA quick trigger shots, with 5/5 500ms shots and 5/5 250ms shots detected. In comparison, the Max 360 detected 4/5 500ms and 0/5 250ms, and the V1 detected 5/5 500ms and 3/5 250ms. www.rdforum.org/index.php?threads/85196/
Now police will actually trigger the radar on and off because they know that most people have radars. They will do it on and off so its not on constantly.
You are absolutely correct! This is called "Instant on" radar and it's why you need a detector with long-range capability. If your detector has good enough range, you can pick up those "on and off" blips from a long distance away before you are within visual range of the police officer.
*KA* is widely used across CA. *K* and *X* are used on _YOUR SPEED_ signs. I don't believe that anyone in CA is using *K* at all, let alone *X.* Even CHP speed sign are using *KA* band.
So the city installed a speed display on my street, my xp does nothing, I even turned on test drove Round the block back passing the speed sign and still nothing from the xp, the sign shows my speed
I saw one of those speed monitor signs that flashed I was going over the speed limit but my radar detector didn’t go off!! This was in Grosse Tête- Louisiana
Slamming on your brake is not a good idea even though it is a natural reaction when people see the police in a medium or on the side of the road. When you brake hard the front end of your car visibly dips down and you have tipped the officer off that you are speeding. Even in the daylight hours most cars now have running lights which will give the officer an indicator that your car is dipping down. I simply let off the gas and since I drive a manual transmission I simply dropped down a gear and go by the law enforcement vehicle going 5 miles over the limit by the time his radar finally locks onto my car. This is why long range detection is so important. If the officer is using instant on radar then you are screwed.
Pulled over last Saturday for 65 in 55. I was passing another car that was averaging 10 below the limit. Radar detector did not alert for radar or laser. I wanted to ask how he clocked me but as he gave me a warning, I decided not press my luck. Placement of detector is high on windshield with no obstructions. Previous alerts without an issue with plenty of warning. Verified settings and all correct. Interesting.
Thanks for the reply. Running a R3. I reviewed the dash cam video, the LE officer never held something up to his window in the video (parked 90 degree to road). Also, GPS read top speed 67 mph in 55 zone. Gave me a written warning, I suspect because he really had no idea how fast I was traveling.
I just got a ticket kinda the same way my passport didn't alert me and he issued me a ticket this how I know he was lieing how fast I was going he said I was doing 70 in 35 he said I usually take people to jail for that best believe me I wasnt doing 70 I was speeding but not that fast or I'd been locked up
Do you realize how much money they lose if they were to enforce traffic laws by aircraft. They rarly actually do that unless its a very high traffic area in the city and even then they would have to hand out countless tickets to make the whole effort worth it. Its mostly a scare tactic from everything ive heard talking to people that work with aircraft.
Radenso u guys r not going the extra mile for being the best detector in the market to expensive and not doing all things right so I’m not buying any detectors from Radenso until there’s in the market a good radar so far radenso doesn’t have a good radar sorry but just the truth by making you tube videos is not the answer
People who don’t already know the answers to the questions in this video aren’t professional speeders. lol.
That’s not true I seen a cop using a radar gun and my R7 didn’t alert me
Thank you Radenso. I enjoy my Pro M
Thanks !

how did i get a laser ticket when they were like 1 mile infront of me at a stop sign and it didn’t go off for laser even a little?
I would expect a quicker response time after the trigger was pulled humm

@@RadensoRadar can you tell me what the response time is for this detector??

Sojiro 176 Most people , do not have radar detectors . Maybe ,in your universe they do, but it’s not most .
Instant on has been around for very many years it’s not a new thing
what are the typical power output levels of the radar guns???????????????????????????
in northern CA, do I need X band and K band? or just Ka?
*KA* is widely used across CA. *K* and *X* are used on _YOUR SPEED_ signs. I don't believe that anyone in CA is using *K* at all, let alone *X.*
Even CHP speed sign are using *KA* band.

That is normal as speed signs do not need to be using FCC police radar frequencies. -Randy
I saw one of those speed monitor signs that flashed I was going over the speed limit but my radar detector didn’t go off!! This was in Grosse Tête- Louisiana
Yup, totally normal
@@RadensoRadar Then how was my speed detected?
Please see our article on Radenso.com in Radar University that explains all about this
Bluetooth to headset for motorcycles?

did you have radenso pro m or something else?

Sometimes they just lie. That's also why he gave the warning - he didn't actually get you but just wanted to pull you over.
California is using new frequencies! You can bank on it 😡
Second reason given: Fellas, it’s called “Traffic Control”
It's not Working
slow reaction time, damn near 3 seconds after he pulled the trigger
Step 1.....Turn the detector on....
we know we know we know we know we know we know
It’s called a radar detector, not a police car detector. They don’t always have their radar devices on.
...or police might be using helicopter/airplane to *_PACE_* your speed.

Your detector too slow to respond to the radar. I've seen so much quicker with the same settings in the room close range. So thumbs down to u guys 👎👎
😡
Radenso u guys r not going the extra mile for being the best detector in the market to expensive and not doing all things right so I’m not buying any detectors from Radenso until there’s in the market a good radar so far radenso doesn’t have a good radar sorry but just the truth by making you tube videos is not the answer
