LASER BLOCKERS, DIFFUSERS. WHICH ONE?

I've got Passports in every car but they don't do much for Laser other let you know it's time to reach for your wallet.

Anyone had any success with Laser blockers or diffusers? Do they really work and if so, which ones and how do they work?

Laser Interceptor is the top performer in the jammer game right now. radardetector.net is a good source of info for radar and laser protection.

Here in WI the State Hwy Patrol uses VASCAR III+ which is purely optical. They can get you coming opposite direction or going same way and you never know what hit you till you see the lights.

Laser jammers are illegal here in California. Is it the same in other states?

Shows state by state where they are illegal and where there are currently no laws against them.

If you search around on that site you can also see the latest jammer test they conducted just a month or two ago. Blinder M25 (not the M20 because I think that is no longer in production) does pretty well but not as well as LI which is nearly all jam to gun and was not beaten by any other jammer on any of the guns they tested with. Of course this was all on a worse case vehicle so if your car is dark or has less chrome and no license plate Blinder would probably perform even better. One positive of LI is it can be updated as new guns come out (they recently came out with an update for the new LTI truespeed gun)
