    Yes, the two outers are purely for rear Poliscan protection.

    I did however, draw it out in AutoCad fully scaled to ensure there were no gaps in the coverage, particularly in the rear when shot from behind at 10m (33') from a typical rear Poliscan setup shooting from the verge at 35deg (imported and scaled from Google Earth). Beyond about 10m, I should have some degree of overlapping protection from the rear heads due to the beam divergence.

    10 deg out on the front is about the maximum, otherwise you open up a small channel of non-coverage at 0 deg straight ahead in front of the licence plate (depends on the size of the car and mounting positions of course)

    Hey wb,have you seen the IR video of the AL-P Sensor that shows the beam divergence displayed in actual angle of spread in "degrees" ?

    Scroll down to near the bottom of the page:

    Hey RedR,

    Yes, I've seen the video on the blog, but can't remember the exact numbers. I based my AutoCad drawings on the previously advertised data, so will have a look at the video again, and re-visit my drawings

    OK I can see the difference between the Blinder and the ALP but I need someone to explain the difference between the ALP and the LI

    Both have approx. the same horiz. IR divergence,but in the vert. plane the LI has less (noticeably "thinner").
    Also,the AL-P has a full-bodied,energy saturated,~equal distribution density throughout the whole IR pattern particle wavefront.

    The same cannot be said about the other two models.Both exhibit large & small "dead zones" (Blackholes w/o energy radiated!) speckled throughout the IR pattern.These aberrations shouldn't be there in a quality product,IMO.I've looked at dozens of individual Sensor outputs from these 2 models & EVERY SINGLE ONE has these defects so far.I've also looked at LI/8.8 (4ea. only) & they were worse.

    My preference is the clearly superior pattern & high output energy levels of the BEST of the 3.The Top Model choice can be seen in my Signature.

    Thanks Red, when you go back and look at the videos with the explanation it stands out.
