That actually sounds quite practical. I had visions of an oil/grease reservoir installed into the spare tire well for strategic and timely release onto the path of approaching bandito's.
The CHiP's are starting to incorporate the use of the laser out here. For years they've just driven around with the K-band on...full time. The V1 picks them up miles in advance. The laser is a different animal.
Thx. I'm going to look a little more into this laser jammer business.

Look into Laser Interceptors (#1), or Blinders (#2), but skip on the Escort Zr4 or Zr3's. When I get to the point that I don't need to spend money just getting/keeping mine running correctly, the LI's will be my next upgrade.

I have the Blinder M25. I think the new unit is a the M27. This only provide for front laser coverage. You'd need to step up to the M47 (4-heads) to get front and rear coverage.

Oh you were recently in the hospital, what was worked on? Oh nothing much. Had a little cut on my arm and they put a bandaid over it, scrape on the knee and they cleaned that up. Had a Super Atomic Bionic Heart put in. Nothing much.
