Just got one of the above and having a few probs.

When ever I rev the car it will say laser, even whilst sitting in my garage and carries on doing so every 10 seconds whilst driving.

Last night on the way home from work at midnight it detected 6 camara vans in the space of a mile and not a one in sight even on the way to work at 10am

My car is a TVR Chim.

This driving me mad, why can't things be simple, just plug in and go.

Thanks for any advice

Thanks for that, bit of a bummer really as my other half bought as a B/day pressy.
Forgot to say that dosn't happen in my daily driver, only in the TVR.
Had to buy a antena (£22) for the Pug as it has a U.V. screen.
Oh why can't life be simplerolleyes

Been in contact with RA, they said someone from there tech dept would call me back, 5mins later they did. Explained the situation re the TVR, got put on hold whilst he consulted his buddies. He came back and explained the it would not work in a TVR due to 'lack of insulation whilst on top of the dash' therefore picking up too many electrical signals from the motor.
So just got home and put the unit up by the mirror gave it a few revs and no alarm. Put it back on the dash and sure enough it went off when given some revs.
Question is does it have to be lower down to be affective as I have read that when a laser is being pointed at you they target the number plate.
And does it matter anyway as it only takes a second or two to be zapped and you can't slow down fast enough.
And would this be the case with all teflon cars.

Thanks for that Ian, have only tried it in the garage at the moment. If weather permitting will be going to Goodwood breakfast club this Sunday. So will see if all works OK
Thanks
