alistair_learmonth Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Whats people opinions of these devices, whats the pros and cons? Whats the best type?
Gumball Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 i have a road angel £399 it has a sensor front and rear, remembers the loc of cameras, blackspots, schools. picks up the laser beam front and rear. i think it is very good in that it always beaps, speaks and flashes nearing a camera, ie 500metres before. what it doesnt do is detect the laser gun fast enough. cop fires beam-0.2 secs. the RA sensors take 0.5 seconds so your always pinged and cant do anything. if you want to get all the camera and the lasers get a jammer too !!! fitted to your grill (NO WORRIES !!!) so i hear
FastScooby Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 I have the origin B2 fitted in mine... full gps and has a laser detecter in the front window... cost £379.99 does everything and you get 6 month free subsription
st3ph3n Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Picked up a classic Road Angel last boxing day in the Halfords sale for half price. Well worth it. Also got my TomTom Mobile 5 on my smartphone which has speed cameras on the points of interest, and it does sat nav too of course.
alistair_learmonth Posted October 23, 2005 Author Posted October 23, 2005 Went into Halfords and had a look. New road Angel £349 B2 £429 Both free fitting to connect direct usually £39 Both free six months but the yearly cost are higher for the B2, though I have been informed the B2 is quicker with updates to register cams, etc.

FastScooby Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 halfords are expensive for some things.. OriginB2 £379.95
gary_johnson Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 Got my New Road Angel of E-Bay...£180....Also there is a new compact road angle just out at around £199 I think.. http://www.blackspot.com/products/roadange...pact/index.html
wrxmania Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 Origin B2 - great bit of kit, does lots and always finds the camera's I pass - never missed one and the warning is exceptional - like all others, the laser won't save you unless lucky. I may be selling mine for reasonable offers... (7 months subscription left) Brian
craig mac Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 I also got my New Road Angel on Ebay for £240 Great Wee thing Craig
duke Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 can any of these jam? what are the gizzmos that jam?
col666 Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 Where can you actually buy a jammer? been looking through e-bay but nothing.Yes i know they are illegal but so is speeding! Sure i can hide one somewhere! Col
st3ph3n Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 Jammers are illegal. On a completley unrelated manner - I hear these automatic garage door openners are good. A nudge is as good as a wink to a bald man. Or something like that
