    You say it can update via USB, but that usually takes a computer connected to the internet. Is it windows only, or does it work with Macs or others?

    Ray, I have two questions for you: I own a german sports car witch makes most mounting positions lower to the ground: will the lower relative hight of the sensor head effect the performance of the sensor head? Secondly, I would like to protect the sensor heads from rocks and other damaging debris; if i were to mount the sensor head behind a clear piece of Lexan will the Lexan effect the performance fo the sensor head?

    • Each jamming head will cover a 18″ circle, so I would cut this out in cardboard and place it in the area you want to place the head(s). You want to make sure that the most reflective areas are covered. As far as the lexan, never tested that so I don’t know

    I called all of the Blinder dealers including Radarbusters on Tuesday. They all said that they haven’t received their initial shipment of Blinder HP-905 yet. How did you purchase a unit? Did you get it directly from Blinder? Is this unit juiced?

        • The 1st distributor that received units from Denmark was in the UK, they were shipped just under a 100. So shop around some of the sites there, you may find a dealer that may still have one

          • Simple, give me a call and we will discuss. First off you’re using a public proxy to post here to my site so you are not being truthful as to your motivation of why you are calling me out! Are you a competitor, another dealer what is your motivation???? If you want to play detective just Google the dealers and distributors in the UK, in the mean time go FYS!

    I don’t have your phone number, so just post it, and I will gladly give you a call. I am on vacation, and just filling some time with reading and viewing your review. I am not a competitor or dealer. Just a consumer who has a little knowledge of how laser jammers and laser works. My motivation is that as a prospective consumer, I would like to be sure that our review of this product is accurate and will be applicable to a Blinder HP-905 Compact, if I purchase one. I played detective Google, and read some accusations that you have tested prototype units and represented them as production units when they had different specifications than the production units. No need to use foul language, Roy.

    • A number of things

      1) I’m am very skeptical of your motivation in this specially after doing a tracert on your IP
      2) I’m sure that you’re also thinking to yourself that because of the 48 hours that past that I am ignoring you or whatever. So in case you are yesterday morning I was admitted into Del Web Hospital for a medical procedure, you can call them to find that out. And today I spent the day in Mexico with my wife. You can go to my Facebook wall to see the pictures.
      3) Why am I upset, well basically you are calling me a liar, based upon something you read. Did you happen to think as to what their motivation was? Do you believe everything you read? The pro-type I’m sure you’re referring to was the LI that was placed on my motorhome. Yes, it was a pro-type and the original posting regarding the test said it was and the Guys of Lidar were also present. The video that was taken that was re-posted on countless other sites however never mentioned that fact. So when that post ended up someplace else other then my testing page I was called a liar by others in the industry.
      4) So now you’re demanding that I post an invoice here so I can steer traffic off my site to another. No way.
      5) Again, the unit was purchased from a distributor in the UK. As you see from the video on this site that I am also a pilot and my best friend who is a pilot for United made arrangements to have the unit picked up from Heathrow and flown to Phoenix for the test so I could be the 1st in the USA to have it. The payment was made by credit card (no you’re not getting my statement).
      6) So if you want to call me to get the name of the pilot and the name of the owner of the distributing company my cell phone is 623-203-6117. I will be inquisitive as to your real motivation and I will call the number back to confirm that it is you.

      My only request is that once your done calling me out that you have the balls enough to post a follow-up here with an apology.

  5. As a consumer who bought Blinder M25/M37 I can only say that they are excellent quality and very effective even against the most stealthy leo. I can only expect that the new HP905 is probably a monster unit also. As far as Radar Roy goes I have been using/researching this stuff for years and his reputation is impeccable! Just the fact that he answered/posted your questions and comments proves what a man of character he is. Thanks for the info on HP905…now if I can convince my wife that she needs my m27 on her car!

    Juiced? Really? How so?

    Even if a special model were delivered to reviewers, follow-up posts would reveal something is not right in Denmark.

    I do wish there were more still photographs of it before and after installation. Size of the rotary switch would be a concern for me though. There is neither depth nor area in most cars for anything deep or large. Is it illuminated? If so, can it be controlled?

    I am not sure what any advantages of being small are a sensor area is critical to sensitivity. Also, while compared to the LI series, it is not mentioned if it is the regular or HP series that is is being compared against. Even the regular series is more than adequate, though.

            Roy the LI says, it sends no code when jamming that seems like a plus to LI, I can deal with either size sensors, so does the HP have a parking switch like the opt. switch the LI has. The other item is RadarBusters can’t deliver till the end ofthe month on HP. What’s your take on allof my points? I did find the spot for either unit on the rear for one sensor. Thanks again Ted

    Just a couple of questions- I am having my unit the HP-905 installed professionally tomorrow 8/14/12. Just a couple of questions= what does the mode button on the cpu do since there is a 4 position rotary switch? What does the sun interference warning mean? All for ports are checked in the software/firmware download on the desktop- is this normal and finally the region on the usb download on the computer says “international”- being shipped directly from hayneedle.com, I assume the cpu is made for the US too. Thanks Roy.

    Did you find this review helpful? Yes   No

    • The mode setting allows you to switch from parking sensor only, to laser detection only to full laser jamming. Bright sunlight can interfere with laser, this is just a warning to be careful that bright sun is interfering with the unit. The unit is for use in the USA

        I just installed my hp-905 system in my car. I have the same question as Cactusman. What position should the “Mode” button on the CPU be switched to for Defense mode? To the left or to the right? The “0-1-2-3” dial switch is hooked up to the CPU as well. Is this optional, do they do the same thing? Meaning, can I run the CPU without the 0-1-2-3 dial switch? Also, when the system is on, the CPU lights for ports 1 and 2 are RED. Should they be green? I see on their website they light up green, so I wanted to be clear they are working ok.

        Did you find this review helpful? Yes   No

        • DK and Sean, hope this answers both of your questions:
          You can run the CPU without the remote switch. INT/EXT should be INT. If you run the remote switch (mode) should be to the left (L) INT/EXT should be EXT. The remote switch gives you Park, Detection and Jamming. If you don’t run the remote switch you have L/P laser/park.
          Yes ports 1,2 are red and 3,4 are green. They were trying to do a front/rear thing but it just caused a lot of questions.
          Sounds like it’s working.

    Hi Roy,

    I finally found an Audio & Security shop to install my new Blinder HP 905 today. The owner said there is a new Laser gun which doesn’t have to be pointed at headlights or license plates. He said it can be pointed anywhere on the vehicle, and it reads back the vehicle’s speed even before the Blinder will able to alert the driver. Is this fact of fiction?

    Helpful Hint: Today was my first trip to work after having my Blinder installed. It was configured so that the stereo would turn off when an alert would come through. I blast my toons so I thought this would be the best option. Turns out, the sunrise hits the back of my car as I head due West to work. Every 10 seconds Mike, the automated voice, warns about sun interference, and I had to listen to this all the way to work without the stereo! 🙁 On my lunch break the first thing I did was take my car back to the shop to have the radio option disconnected. Hope this saves somebody else the hassle.

    Here in GA, troopers and officers usually shoot laser at the windshield. That being said, any idea how it would do for me to mount 2 heads on the bumper, and 1 in the windshield? I would most Limey mount it behind the rear view mirror. (Between the mirror itself and the windshield). Also the troopers around here are quite prone to shoot the rear of your car. Would 1 head be enough on the rear of my 06 Mustang?

    • I doubt if they are shooting your windshield, that is the most unreflected area of a vehicle

      2 in the grill and if you want reliable protection to the rear, 2 to the rear

    I just finish mounted two of my quad 905’s on front grill pointing straight, still undecided how to deploy the last two sensores I had tought about mounting third sensor in between the wipers, I just have to fabricate a mount using a flexyglass(I have it all figured out) even before I came across tylers issue. another issue is that how about if the LEO’s are shooting from an angle much farther away from the road which create at least 20 to 30 degrees shooting angle and because of that my idea is to put three on the front grill(two sides pointing about 15-20 degrees on each side and a center sensor pointing straight. and the fourth sensor just above the license plate behind the car. That said, my question is have they ever shoot laser while hiding more than 50 feet away from the road, or is it prefered method to shoot on road shoulder to get as parallel to the road as possible. Thanks tyler, Thanks Roy.

    • I wouldn’t put a jammer head that high, on the windsheild
      And to get the best protection they need to be mounted straight ahead, level with the road. NEVER on any angle

    Hi Roy,

    I would first like to thank-you for the many years of advice. Thanks to you, I have purchased the Blinder Extreme M27 and the Beltronics STI. Unfortunately, although the Blinder lights are working when I turn on the car, I got hit last year with an extreme speeding ticket in which it was then that I found the Blinder is no longer working.
    I am going to get the Blinder HP 905 as you recommend but would like your valued opinion on the following questions please:
    1) I live in the eastern part of Canada and in the winter it gets to -40F with the wind chill before I start driving. Do you think that the HP with a windchill of me driving still work as effectively as in a tropical climate?
    2) I have an Audi S8 and would like to ask you if 2 are enough for the front and where would you recommend that I install them (on the grill in front of the radiator fan or way below next to the fog lights? I apologize that I do not have a photo of the car to show you.
    3) Lastly, since I live in Eastern Canada, jammers are illegal and therefore I cannot readily showcase them. Therefore may you please take that into consideration when advising where to install? I know that you stated that its peak performance is an 18 inch diameter but based on your experience, where would you hit me with the radar gun in your past life.

    As always, thank-you for your valuable assistance and keep up the excellent work!

    Kindest regards,
    Speedy Gonzalez

    • 1 – Don’t know if anyone ever tested it in this type of enviroment, the only think I would suggest is to make sure the heads stay clean

      2 – To be on the safe side would go with 3 heads on the front. One above the plate and one on each side of the grill

      3 – Police are trained to target the front plate or center of mass. So that is why I would recommend 1 above the plate

      Thank you for your comments and support! It is very much appreciated

          Good afternoon Radar Roy. I just wanted to thank-you for your advice. Although your recomended website to order the Blinder does not ship to Canada (and other sites do), I wanted to show my appreciation and had a friend in Florida purchase the triple head and ship it to me. It is installed and looking forward to testing it. If there are any Smokey’s in the Halifax area reading this email, try to catch me lol.

          Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

    Just wanted to say awesome website, for the past 10yrs I have been coming to your site every time I got a new car and wanted to outfit it with the best defense money can legally buy. I can also personally vouch for the Blinder series of Laser Jammers, I owe Blinder my license. Here in the South if you get clocked on the highway I can almost guarantee you it will be with laser. I’ve had the M25, M27, and thanks to Radar Roy I just purchased the new HP-905 without hesitation.

    I have some truly unbelievable stories of how the M25 saved me from a very expensive ticket; my favorite is when I was less than 200yds from a bridge, they were on the overpass and tried to clock me from almost straight up, I was certain it was over. The M25 still worked flawlessly.

    I’ve already ordered my HP-905 and another big thanks to Radar Roy for the coupon code, saved me about $57.00 Will be installing in my new 2013 Nissan GTR along with my new V1.

    Troubleshooted the 905, flick the side switch to “EXT” if using rotary remote, that all. Newer car anti collision sensor, my 905 had reacted to a newer cars collision laser sensor as the other cars making a left turn and passes within 10 feet of my front driver side sensor, that only happened once so far. Will be driving north NC but decided to avoid floridas HWY 301 and avoiding major speedtraps in florida, instead will take I-75 & I-10 about 28 minutes longer but i can actually gain more cozits all interstate speed compare to town speed as snail slow as 30mph in Lawtey, Waldo or Starke plus the hassle of speedtraps. Bottom line my 905 issue had been resolved, i wish it came with a better owners manual.

        Roy did u just said “windshield” ? so my idea that i brought here not too ago to mount one of the sensor(905) at the bottom of the windshield sitting centrally on top edge of the hood wasnt a bad idea after all, now the you actually said that windshield is also a target, which gives u added protection above the hood.

My 905 was intalled in my car since October 2012, then today marks the very first day that my car was hit by a laser from a sheriff vehicle i guess less than 1000 feet away, i was caught off guard that i was not able hit the remote control of my carcamera to record the event ha ha ha ha, im sure the cop also got caught by surprise for not able to clock me for 7 seconds.

    Great review ! But do I need a strip on the back of my 2012 Mustang as well as the front to jam lasers ? What is the chance the price will come down ? $700.00 plus is a lot of money to most people. Thanks

    • Doubt the price will only go up, not increase. 95% of all laser is shot to the front, but if you want 100% you’ll need a pair for the rear

    Hello Radar Roy,

    I am a Southern California driver and am aware that it is illegal to own and operate a laser jammer in my state. It is almost guaranteed now that California Highway Patrol sets up random LIDAR (LTI Truspeed) speed traps around bends and straightaways and love to give speeding tickets to also help the state’s debt. Now my beltronics 940 is almost useless against this threat so the Blinder 950 is ideal. Now I’m not sure if you can answer this or not, but is it legal to install the Blinder 950 In California? The auto shutoff function is ideal and was curious if 5 seconds delay would be strange enough to the LEO to pull me over for some reason. And if I was pulled over if the Park Assist function would possibly debunk a laser jammer suspicion? I understand an answer would be opinion and not purely legal advice. Any advice and opinion is appreciated. Thank you for informing the public as extensively as you have.

    Did you find this review helpful? Yes   No

    • Hi Matt, thanks for contacting me.

      Most cops don’t even know that laser jammers exist and if they do they don’t think that they work. What is nice about the Blinder is your ability to change it from a laser jammer to a parking sensor at the flick of a switch, have a full video here explaining:

      http://www.radardetector.org/is-yourlaser-jamming-legal/

      In the 15 years I’ve been doing reviews I have had only one person in Texas tell me that he received a citation for having a laser jammer.

      The 5 seconds is typically enough time to slow down and once your down to the legal speed limit it shuts off and the officer can now capture your speed.

      Hope this helps

    Hi Roy,
    I just got the 9500ix and HP-905 based on reviews you made. I got the 9500ix set up, but I’m struggling with the poor instructions on the HP-905. I got the dual heads and I’m trying to figure out if I’m supposed to mount one in the front center and one over the rear license plate or both in the front? Also, if I don’t use the external switch and set it to use the internal, what does the mode slide switch do?

    A comment about the 9500ix: the live feature doesn’t work with windows phones. Does the “merge” function on their computer software grab a new copy of the speedtrap/cam database or does it just send your marks to them for some kind of a subscription service?

    Howzit Roy, Aloha from the fiftieth state!

    Hey I have an old Blinder M27 on my 850whp C-6 Vette that’s performed flawlessly over the past 5 or so years, and I’d like to thank the people at Blinder, and people like yourself for putting yourself out there to provide help and information to us common folks!

    I’ve recently purchased a 2014 911 Turbo S, and would like to get the latest Blinder 950 installed ASAP. I don’t run a front license plate, and the car is pretty small, would the Three Pack 950 suffice, or what do you think? The headlamps are pretty big for such a small car, which is my concern. Should I try and install the jammers in the area around the lamps and forget the middle area of the hood?

    Thanks again,

    K Adams

    Hi Roy. I have a 2012 Audi S4 with no front plate. I am thinking of getting the HP-905 but am not sure about the placement and number of sensors (2, 3 or 4) for the front. Would you please also recommend placement? I am also thinking of a new radar detector and would like your recommendation on the Escort Max or the STI driver. Thanks for providing such great resources.

    • For front protection all you will need is two. Try to space them between the center of your car and each headlight. As far as the detector, I love my Max. Remember to use your 10% off discount code at checkout

    I’ve been running my dual head 905 for 2 years. One word: OUTSTANDING. This is the real deal as far as total laser protection. It actually worked so good I got pulled over by a State Trooper for “illegal window tint” after the 905 jammed his gun. (I’ve since reprogrammed the unit to shut off after 5 seconds to avoid tipping of LE).

    Anyway, as Roy mentioned in a previous post; most police officers 1.) either don’t know laser jammers exist or don’t think they work. or…… 2.) As in my case with the above mentioned State Trooper, know they exist but are convinced they are illegal. You see, cops forget that radar uses radar waves and LiDA R uses light to determine a vehicle’s speed. Yes, radar jammers ARE illegal. But they think any type of jammer is illegal. Glad they’re wrong!

    The Trooper insisted my jammer was illegal. I objected and told him he was wrong. He spent 30 minutes in his cruiser (probably searching the michigan motor vehicle code for “the law”) before returning to my car and handing me my ticket for…………….tinted windows. Thanks to Roy’s information, I won that battle.

    Also, Blinder just released another firmware update, keeping the 905 up to date in the cat and mouse game of Lidar manufactures vs. Lidar jammers.

    Roy, great tests. I understand the police gun requires a few seconds to ‘reset’ after it has been jammed, giving the driver time to slow down AND (as for the Blinder 905) can be quickly switched to another mode before being ‘shot’ again. Is this all correct?

    Did you find this review helpful? Yes   No

  62. Dear Radar Roy,
    I can’t afford the new AlertLaser Priority. I drive often on the highway in upstate NY and several times a year cross country from NY to Texas. Does the Blinder HP-905 still offer adequate protection as of 2015 or am I better off saving more money and getting the Alert Laser Priority? You said the Blinder is in the process of developing a new system but I’m assuming that won’t be out for a while. I have encountered laser traps in NY and in Houston Tx and laser really scares me because there’s no time to slow down if you don’t have protection.

    Thank You

    • The Blinder will jam most of the police lidar guns you will encounter and it’s a good buy. Yes I’ve been told that they are working on a new system, unknown when that will come to market

    Roy I have been out of the loop of jammers and radar detectors. I bought a Blinder HP 905 with 4 sensors 2-3 years ago off your recommend website! I was super busy had 2 kids and started my own business. I left it in the card board box it came in so every time I thought about going to get it installed I couldn’t find it! I know I been slacking.

    So my question is I finally want to install it and I read here you can do an update! How would I do it on a Mac computer? Also I see that there are some new ones out should I buy a new one instead? I also would like your input on what is the best radar detector for my 2015 Dodge Ram 1500 crew cab in Chicago, IL?

    I was also thinking of doing the install myself, I have installed a few car stereos about 10 years ago. Do you have any tips or install videos on installs on a full size pick up a Dodge Ram if you have one!

    Thank you
