What are the measurements\u00a0a radar detector or laser detector can provide a warning from?\u00a0<\/strong>
\nIt\u00a0can give\u00a0a warning against radar and laser speed measurement as well as fixed speed cameras. This applies to fixed and mobile camera.\u00a0Against fixed speed cameras is always recommended ti use a GPS speed camera detector like the\u00a0GPS Reminder<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What are measurements a “laser jammer” can prevent from?<\/strong>
\nAny measurements\u00a0obtained by a laser or “laser binoculars” are actively prevented. The speed of the vehicle can not be measured.<\/p>\n

How can I get a warning against fixed speed camera or red light traffic cameras?<\/strong>
\nYou can\u00a0get an early\u00a0warning by using\u00a0a GPS camera detector. For example, there are the GPS devices\u00a0KAZA DT100<\/a> wireless and GPS Reminder<\/a>, they are an ideal complement to your radar detector and laser jammer. The coordinates of speed cameras or speed measurement points across Europe are saved in the\u00a0database and warn\u00a0based on a GPS signal. Regular updates for these GPS camera detectors with the latest database information with new speed cameras can be\u00a0downloaded online for free.<\/p>\n

How can a radar detector provide a warning, if fixed cameras measure “from behind” (e.g. Finland, Switzerland, France)?
\n<\/strong>Here the emitted radar signals are indeed in the direction of travel but before reaching the camera a good radar detector issues a warning early enough. This is also applicable to use the front of fixed radar detector. Since the warning distance is shorter, however, a very good radar detector like the Genevo Max<\/a>, the\u00a0Navty P1<\/a>, the\u00a0Uniden R8<\/a>\u00a0or the\u00a0Neoline 8700s<\/a>\u00a0should be choosen long-range or sensitivity. A 100% early-enough secure\u00a0warning\u00a0will be given by\u00a0GPS camera detectors, these\u00a0detectors use a GPS signal, the warning\u00a0comes always a few hundred yards in front of camera.<\/p>\n

Is there a radar detector that covers all methods of speed measurement and warns\u00a0for all?
\n<\/strong>Basically different measurement technologies determine the need for\u00a0various devices (radar detector, GPS camera detector, laser jammer) to get complete protection. The new radar detectors e.g.\u00a0Navty P1<\/a>, Genevo Max<\/a> or Uniden R8<\/a> represent an absolute innovation, these radar detectors warn against mobile radar, laser as well as fixed cameras with GPS signal. Only the active laser jamming is not provided.<\/p>\n

How can I achieve maximum protection against all methods of measurement, without seen by persons from the outside – what is a professional, discreet and effective solution?<\/strong>
\nThe installation of a hidden fixed radar detector\u00a0like e.g. the\u00a0Genevo Assist Pro 2<\/a>, \u00a0Stinger VIP<\/a>, a laser jammer like the\u00a0Laserjammer Antilaser ALP Priority<\/a>\u00a0and a\u00a0GPS detector\u00a0is the best solution and protects against almost all measurements (except\u00a0pure video recordings\u00a0by the police). Please see and refer\u00a0to our\u00a0all-in-one solutions<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What is the detection\u00a0range of a radar detector?<\/strong>
\nThe range of a radar detector ranges from 80m-500m (partly even more). Local conditions such as curves, mountain tops, bridges, etc. can affect performance slightly. Much more\u00a0advanced radar detectors such as\u00a0the\u00a0Navty P1 Premium<\/a>\u00a0offers better range and are placed due to the better sensitivity in the upper price segment.<\/p>\n

Why are the price differences for radar detectors\u00a0so widely spread?<\/strong>
\nThe radar detectors differ mainly on the sensitivity and detection range, but also by special features such as voice output and the number of sampled frequencies. Even cheaper radar detectors work, but the range is less than\u00a0e.g. the\u00a0Navty P1 radar detector<\/a>. Fixed-mounted radar detectors such as the\u00a0Stinger VIP<\/a>\u00a0or the\u00a0Genevo Assist Pro radar detector<\/a>\u00a0are technically complex and therefore\u00a0more expensive.<\/p>\n

What is the impact of metallized\u00a0heated front windscreens\u00a0on the performance of a radar detector??
\n<\/strong>The radar detectors for use in the cockpit also operate in the presence of such windscreens, but\u00a0with a slightly\u00a0limited range. We recommend the purchase of a highly sensitive radar detector or a fixed radar detector installation solution for your radar detector in the vehicles front.<\/p>\n

Can there be a laser measurement warning early enough by a radar laser detector?<\/strong>
\nLaser measurements are made within a second, but these are then registered\u00a0in a wide circle. Therefore if a preceding vehicle is measured, is still sufficient reaction time. Similarly, the first\u00a0laser measurement\u00a0is not always effective immediately. For example, on the\u00a0Anti-laser\u00a0Priority Laser Jammer<\/a> or Target Lasertrack Flare<\/a> switches off after successful disruption for some time, to allow a new measurement.<\/p>\n

What is the size of a radar detector?<\/strong>
\nRadar detectors\u00a0have dimensions\u00a0like a\u00a0cigarette\u00a0box and therefore very inconspicuous inside the vehicle.<\/p>\n

Is there a need that\u00a0the installation of a radar detector must be performed by a professional technician?<\/strong>
\nRadar detectors can be easily taken into operation by any user.\u00a0for an installation of a\u00a0laser\u00a0jammer\u00a0or an fixed\u00a0hidden\u00a0radar detector, it is advisable to\u00a0ask a workshop\u00a0to do\u00a0the installation. In general, you can make it with professional technical skills and certaincar electrics knowledge.<\/p>\n

Where is the best place to install a radar detector? What has\u00a0to be considered?<\/strong>
\nRadar detector can be attached to the front window windscreen with small suction cups, alternatively,\u00a0some radar detectors offer a Velcro connection on the dashboard or the assembly with a clip on the sun visor. The necessary mounting hardware is supplied complete. In any case, the radar detector must have a clear view of the road – an installation in the glove compartment, etc. prevents the proper function.<\/p>\n

How long does it take to get the radar detectors installed on the dashboard?<\/strong>
\nThe initial installation takes about 30 seconds, later mounting and uncoupling under 5 seconds – in fact,\u00a0easy and fast to handle!<\/p>\n

Can radar detectors be used in different vehicles?<\/strong>
\nIn principle, radar detectors are very mobile and can be alternately used in other vehicles (e.g. when car hiring). Exception: radar detectors for permanent installation in the engine compartment (e.g. Stinger VIP or Genevo Assist Pro series).<\/p>\n

Can I operate radar detector and laser jammer in parallel?<\/strong>
\nYes, radar detector and laser jammer do not interfere with each other, please also see our\u00a0premium all-in-one radar detector solutions<\/a>, too.<\/p>\n

Can radar detectors and laserjammers be scanned or detected electronically by the police?<\/strong>
\nNo, all the offered radar detectors in our shop are undetectable (so-called VG-2 function).<\/p>\n

Do\u00a0I need a software update for the radar detectors (no GPS products)?<\/strong>
\nSome radar detectors can theoretically receive an update, but there is a regular basis, unchanged police radar frequencies\u00a0do not\u00a0require updates. Nevertheless, in such a special\u00a0case we will inform on our website. Basically this is a subordinate factor in the purchase decision for a radar detector.<\/p>\n

Are there false alerts when operating a radar detector?<\/strong>
\nFalse alarms can occur if there are radar frequencies operated door opener, etc. (eg at petrol stations or in city centers) in the range of the radar detector. These can be reduced by the built-City-filter.\u00a0In practice, you are aware and experienced\u00a0about false and true alerts. Ideally, the bundling operation with a GPS speed camera warning\u00a0detector as offered in our\u00a0premium all-in-one systems<\/a>, audible alarms can be suppressed depending on speed. At low speeds in e.g. city centers\u00a0there will be no more\u00a0unwanted alarms.<\/p>\n

Can radar detectors be disturbed by mobile phones,\u00a0can false alarms occur?<\/strong>
\nNo, the new radar detectors will not be disturbed by any mobile telephony.<\/p>\n

What can\u00a0I do against false alerts?<\/strong>
\nThe radar detectos do offer\u00a0a filter as well as\u00a0a mute function that you can switch the first beep in the event of an alarm automatically to a gentle click.<\/p>\n

Do the radar detectors work in all European countries?<\/strong>
\nYes, most radar detectors work very reliably in all foreign countries, for almost all\u00a0radar detectors\u00a0we have\u00a0received positive comments over the use in Europe. All recommendations are based on our customers’ experience.<\/p>\n

What is important when I use the radar detection in various countries?<\/strong>
\nPay attention to discrete application and consider country’s law.\u00a0Do not let\u00a0any official\u00a0see the radar detector! Whether on or off,\u00a0you may find threatening by\u00a0heavy fines.<\/p>\n

How long is the warranty period?<\/strong>
\nOf course, you will receive during the statutory warranty period, a free repair or replacement if necessary.<\/p>\n

How is the process of delivery\u00a0after\u00a0I placed an order?<\/strong>
\nShipment\u00a0will be by UPS within Germany (fixed EUR\u00a07,90 shipping costs –\u00a0for free when\u00a0>150 EUR order volume<\/u>), to other European countries via UPS (fixed EUR 14,90 –\u00a0for free when >150 EUR order volume<\/u>)). The shipments are packed with neutral invoice inside, no one can see the content from the outside (at UPS label: neutral description “Auto Electronics” components).<\/p>\n

How can\u00a0I pay my radar detector in the online shop?<\/strong>
\nThere are various options like\u00a0pre-payment, cash-on-delivery and all major credit cards. For Switzerland possible reasons of discretion, no cash-on-delivery is possible.<\/p>\n

What is stated on the invoice?<\/strong>
\nOf course, you get a proper invoice with the correct identification of the VAT\u00a0and neutral product name description.<\/p>\n

Are the shipping costs different depending on the various payment options?<\/strong>
\nNo, shipping costs are independent of the chosen payment option, and each delivery is fixed (even when ordering\u00a0more than one\u00a0radar detector).\u00a0We deliver\u00a0an order value of more than EUR 150, – for free<\/u>.<\/p>\n

When ordering, will there be\u00a0any additional customs controls and any customs fees?<\/strong>
\nNo, for shipments within the European community\u00a0there is no customs control,\u00a0there are no further customs duty costs.<\/p>\n

Can\u00a0I pay without German VAT when I submit a valid European company VAT number?<\/strong>
\nYes, providing a valid VAT registration number in the input field of the order process we will send you the products net of 19% German VAT. The validity of the\u00a0entered VAT number is\u00a0immidiately checked online so that you can\u00a0pay equal to the net only, e.g. pay with\u00a0credit card.<\/p>\n

Can I pick up the radar detector in person?<\/strong>
\nYes, there is also the possibility of personal\u00a0pickup in our office. Here it is also possible to\u00a0take\u00a0 a look at\u00a0radar detectors to be installed in a fixed way like the\u00a0Stinger VIP radar detector<\/a> system,\u00a0Genevo Assist Pro<\/a>,\u00a0laser jammer<\/a> or Target Blue Eye 2<\/a>. If you want to pickup the radar detector in our office please\u00a0announce as early as possible by email. By doing so, we can\u00a0confirm and\u00a0ensure the the immidiate availability of the radar detector.<\/p>\n

How about the legal situation when operating radar detectors?
\n<\/strong>In the countries of the European Union there are different laws regarding the possession and operation of radar detectors. These regulations might change regularly. We hereby draw your attention to the fact that in your country the possession and \/ or the operation of such a radar detector might be not permitted. Please check the legal situation for your country before using the\u00a0radar detector or laserjammer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
