@Gamer10145 The CI does fine in the cold, just remember if the lens get iced up or dirty on the laser jammers that they will not work until you clean them
Roy, Ive looked for answers on this question and have yet to find them. How does the ci do in cold temp (15F) and how about snow and rain? IM in the chicago area by midway airport and we have all types of weather. I would like to know if anyone has encountered problems or has any feedback on this. Thanks! PM me for responses
Again, what’s the point of testing with a front plate if anyone using this can take their plate off? He’s already driving an F250, you want to make it even harder to jam?
Not all states issue a front plate. I don’t know what the laws of each state are, but I drove for about 6 months in Minnesota without a front plate and didn’t have a problem. I even got pulled over 2 times for speeding and the cops never said anything.
Hey Radar Roy, You’ve outdone yourself this time. Leading the pack in making it easy – AGAIN.
Thanks for making it so simple and safe to install my 9500ci. I was a little worried about 1) choosing the right detector 2) installing it the right way – the Radar Roy way!

I haven’t watched too many videos. Who uses a school bus? The only video I’ve seen was for Blinder and they were using a C5 without a front plate.
March 6th, 2010 at 5:04 am
Other competitors do why not them?

Good point. He should have driven a school bus with a license plate on the front. At least it’s not a flat black C5 Corvette.

AGAIN the point in a TEST scenario would be to use the worst possible setup to TRULY demonstrate the power of a GOOD laser jammer.
Not everyone runs no front plate.
The truck may be a decent size, it really has dick for highly reflective surfaces though.
Escort Laser Jammers = Weak Sauce, its common knowledge.

No shit, But for proper testing of a LASER JAMMER it SHOULD BE DONE with a front plate.
If you can JTG with a front license plate then its a good setup.

A front plate doesn’t mean shit if you don’t have one on the car.
March 6th, 2010 at 7:10 am
I know that, I was referring to the effectiveness of the jammer itself.
The license plate is a primary focal point for a lot of officers. A lot of plates have retroreflective coatings.
A front plate on a vehicle can increase the chance of punch through significantly.

Hey Roy, you’re a fan of Prodigy? I never would have guessed.

I also noticed your test truck does not have a front license plate on it.
Put a front plate on and target the plate with your laser gun.

Maybe include some wire loom for the rats nest under the dash?
March 6th, 2010 at 8:55 am
Oh yeah? lol i don’t think so… Most radar detectors rely on front deflection of the radar source to detect a source from the rear.

damn radar roy look like a crack head.

Smilin’ at the man in Pasadena! Booyaaaa!

All radar detectors have antennas that detect radar at 360 degrees, front and back
Same with 9500ci
March 6th, 2010 at 11:45 am
what about rear radar detection? is antannae only for front detection?
