Why get 2 heads and months from now get tagged by the compact and regret not getting the 3rd head? It seems like a no brainer to me.

    As far as the install, I highly recommend getting an overall kill switch. I love mine.
    One thing I learnt really quickly with jammers is how important head angle is a degree or two makes a HUGE difference at least to my own setup, made the difference between JTG and PT's which makes me wonder if in the case you are talking about a little experimentation with head angle would make.
    I would love to test this myself if I could lay my hands on a DALA of some description.

    Please don't get me wrong, I am by no means saying you are wrong, only suggesting a little bit of experimentation might achieve a much better result.

    Hello from Maryland! A laser jammer convert.

    RigToFly01, 95% of the laser guys here only use two heads unless they have a huge front vehicle like I have (Ford Truck) with chrome gills all over. ALP works perfect with two heads. I have personally tested with SadisticPatrons who uses two heads on his Audi and he got 100% JTG.

    Over kill is not necessary unless you cannot position the heads correctly and have them properly aligned. Hell, I have one head on my rear vehicle above my license plate, and it's huge rear end which when testing with one head it did great !! I jammed 85% of the 6-7 laser guns tested with.

    That's how good one head works. So two is plenty for any car unless they have a huge chromed out front grill like a truck.

    Not trying to be rude, but we are giving advice to a newbie. Ideally if we can all afford heads then let's just put four in front and rear, not like it's really necessary with ALP.

    I am only speaking from my experience and from all the research I have done in the past year on ALP. I'm sure you have a lot more experience than I do, I'm still a newbie here.

    No hard feelings, nothing but love. Here, this is for you. Oxoxox. LoL

    I think what Rig is saying is .... if you want protection and you want "relatively bulletproof protection," why not spent the extra coin to be sure. I have a 2-head set up with the intentions of doing a third only because I wanted to use some cash on other mods on the car and will never be satisfied until I know I'm fully protected in the front.... a third head..... many reasons as found in other "areas" of the forum detail this reason.... If I had my way I would buy two CPU's and load both front and back but the a ticket might be cheaper... lol

    Absolutely true, a third will make you more bullet proof but would you where three bullet proof vests when you know one or two is enough? Lol just being crazy now!!

    I am good with putting 3 or 4 in the front if it gives me extra protection and adding the back two later. I don't care as much as overkill but I want to make sure they aren't going to interfere with each other in any way.

    Take a look at the attached photo and let me know what you think the ideal positioning would be. I was thinking 4 along the bottom in the red box.

    If you are going with 2 heads then yellow is the way to go. If you are gong with three, then mount using the blue locations and the third in the midway between the yellow marks.
