I want to invest in one of these for my supra, more of a fixed one that i can wire into the dash etc, to look neat and tidy and do its job. a friend of mine has always used the origin b2 and swears by it as its got everything and his even has a laser jammer, but im not going that far

 

any suggestions

I used to have an Origin Blue i. It broke, and I replaced it with a Road Angel Plus. I wish I'd bought the Origin B2 - I miss some of the functions of the Origin (will only alert about speed cameras if you are actually speeding, has a motorway setting so it won't pick up cameras from surrounding side roads etc).

be carefull if you get one with a jammer i read about a 50 odd year old in his range rover that jammed a police signal they caught up with him and allthough he pleaded it was on the vehicle when he got it he went to prison for perverting the course of justice:(

 

I heard its not illegal to use one of the jammers in the UK, but the rest of Europe there is a question mark.

 

How much are these jammers? Sounds like it can really save ur bacon! :D

yeh theyae ilegal bu iv herd that the signals from remote garage doors does the same thing. so if you can fob them off with that its great.

 

but at the same time the origin b2 jammer only comes on while a laser is been pointed at it, cost about £100 extra tho, but can hide it nicely sumwere and try and blag your way out of it. depends how fast you were going and what your local old bill are you. im going to invest in the origin b2 insted of there new pogo as its smaller, and nice n easy to use

In the UK they sell one what they call a parking sensor which reallys is a parking sensor, if u stand in front will beep like a parking sensor but because is using laser instead of waves(parking sensors use them) is a jammer but it warns so u can switch it off, so slow down 2nd time they point at u will be fine ;)

i wont be taking the risk and to quote the rozzer from the article i posted "Roads policing officers throughout the country have been briefed on how to detect the devices in action and the appropriate steps to be taken to ensure the successful prosecution of the dangerous law-breakers who use them."

i do take exception to "dangerous law-breakers" though:D

Hello Epic...Snooper Syrius £230 new. (Or around £300 for full European mapping) Very good. Ive been using one in my Supe for a year now.

It's a GPS Sat Nav and Camera detector in one (no laser jammer though...I wouldn't use one of these anyway...too much explaining to do...)
