ALP heads getting warm

[BestRadarDetectors]

I will scope through with an IR with parking mode disabled but as I know the AL products they still scan just you don't hear the audio beeps

You are correct. Turning off the Parking Mode on any individual head will only ignore the parking signal from the head at the CPU side. I just tested it and confirmed you are correct.

You are correct. Turning off the Parking Mode on any individual head will only ignore the sensor but it will still pulse the parking signal on every sensor. I just tested it and confirmed you are correct.

I dont understand what you are saying (Turning off the Parking Mode on any individual head will only ignore the sensor but it will still pulse the parking signal on every sensor)---- You can have parking mode on/off all the time---Not a bad idea for me in AK to have it on for the heat efffect to keep them clear of ice as we just have to major ice storms roll thru lol... Also if parking mode is on Im guessing they will act as parking sensors ?

AL Priority is 100% of the time a parking sensor but if it detects interference it will go into defense mode. (You can see this from the video as its idol in parking mode but as soon as its hit with laser it immediately reacts) All Sensors will pulse the parking signal even if you have parking mode disabled. That is what the test above was to determine. In any case you are not talking about a hot sensor but it is warm to the touch but warm enough that in some peoples case it might keep ice off of the heads. I will surely test this when it gets cold enough here.

Ok so if (All Sensors will pulse the parking signal even if you have parking mode disabled) what is this actually doing, Im assuming nothing if parking sensors are disabled, which means you have no parking sensors activated and no parking aids available correct? I have plenty of cold and ice lol, just no ALP's yet

Correct the heads are designed as parking sensors and if you turn off the function in the CPU the heads will still operate as normal but it will not alert you if you are too close to an object.

You are correct. Turning off the Parking Mode on any individual head will only ignore the parking signal from the head at the CPU side. I just tested it and confirmed you are correct.

BRD is right on this, very nice video BTW.
Sensors are doing a selftest and PDC every second, that is one proprietary routine of AL for many years. Even if PDC of the sensor is OFF, sensor is operating as normal with selftest blink every second.

ALP sensors are using up a lot of electricity and is normal for them to warm up, some 10-15 degrees above ambient temperature. G8/9 sensors are much larger so heat dissipates more quickly so they only go 5-10 degrees above ambient temperature.

BRD is it the fog light edition;

No, There is no AL Priority fog light heads. The fog light heads are G9 heads but they will also work with the AL Priority.
