RALETC Stinger testing

[shanetrainST]

It would be a blast to test the Stinger. See where it falls in the hierarchy of jammers.

They have been very quite on the scene
Good chance to see how they roll, I have strong doubts about the dragoneye compact... That might be something they need to develop.

It's a throwdown (and not with Bobby Flay)

I have a Stinger VIP for more then a year now and must say that their core business is RADAR detection, not LIDAR. One can buy a Stinger Card, DSI or VIP and expand it with their laser product. Most DSI buyers in our country bought a DSI without the laser expansion for example.

My experience;
The VIP is very good at detecting radar on the Ka band, very good at detecting Multaradar C and Gatso on K band and also detects the low powered radars but this is still a work in progress (as with any RD manufacturer). The detection ranges varies a lot on for example the Multaradar CD.

Seems awful expensive to be a work in progress. If you don't mind telling us all, How much do you pay for your setup?

[Kimono]

Maybe work in progress is not the way to describe it. Ongoing process is better
I've paid €2330 for the VIP and €598 for a Laser Analyzer Box with 2 square heads. Later on I've bought a used DSI with a LAB and 3 heads for a good price

Well email back from Stinger.

No demo unit to lend out, guess we will never know until someone in the US buys one

What was the reason? Can you paste the reply?

Dear Shane,

Unfortunately, we do not have a demo program.

We are well acquainted with that LIDAR and are able to provide excellent protection against the lab units our engineers have tested here in The Netherlands.

We are excited that there is so much interest in Stinger.



Does not look promising, sorry for getting everyone hopes up

In a way this is probably best.I would be concerned that a "ringer" could be supplied that would cause a lot of criticism for both sides if this were to happen.

Thanks for stealing my reply. I thought I posted this earlier, but it appears I didn't. RALETC would need to purchase our own unit rather than a demo unit. Like Rocket said the issue is you could get a "juiced" unit. This has already happened in this industry previously during the GOL tests.
