As many of you have noticed a new AntiLaser Priority CPU was released in October 2014, this is part of the evolving AntiLaser product and at this time it is NOT necessary to upgrade your CPU. The only new feature available for the V2 CPU's that is not available in the original AL Priority CPU released in 2013 is the ability to dim the EXTERNAL led. This was a feature that many people had asked for because the external led was so bright, but it was not possible with the current hardware. So ALP improved it.
Think of this like a cell phone. I personally started in the past with a Galaxy Nexus phone and a year or so later the Note 2 was released and a year after that the Note 3 came out and a year later the Note 4. As technology improves so does the products that are released on the market. Should I be pissed that I spent $500 on the note 2 when 2 years later the Note 4 is now released? Does Samsung owe me something because they improved the product? The thought of buying a product today and expecting it will be good forever is not realistic unless technology stands still. As a manufacture you need to improve your product every year or so or as history has shown us you will eventually fall behind.
If you look at Anti Lasers past you will see that they continue to improve and keep up with technology.
AntiLaser G8 (Generation 8, 2006)
AntiLaser G9 (Generation 9, 2009)
AntiLaser RX (Generation 10, 2010)
AntiLaser RX2 (Generation 11, 2011)
AntiLaser PRIORITY (Generation 12, 2013)
Can I promise you that the ALP you purchased in 2013 will support guns that have not even been created yet and might come out several years from now? No, unfortunately that is impossible to guarantee, but what I can guarantee is that AntiLaser will keep improving and do its best to stay ahead of the curve. If that means there are several different revisions over the next several years, then it means the product is improving. Its much easier to keep ahead of technology than sit idle and realize several years from now that you missed the boat.
In October 2014 AntiLaser released V2 of the AL Priority and I would not be surprised if down the line there will be a V3 or more in the next several years. AntiLaser will of course continue to support previous users and do what they can to give everyone the most time out of their units. Heck there are customers that had Generation 9 systems from 5 years ago and they recently upgraded their CPU and they are using their old heads on the AL Priority CPU for a small investment in a new CPU.
The original AL Priority defends against every single gun available. This has not changed. The V2 units will add new features, but protection will be the same across all CPU's. I can guarantee you if there is ever a lapse in the protection we will let everyone know in the event it becomes necessary to upgrade to a newer CPU. AntiLaser will continue to improve their products as they refuse to stand still and this is one of the reasons I chose to get on board with them as the US distributor. As I stated earlier, at the moment the only new feature released with the V2 CPU's is the ability to dim the brightness on the EXTERNAL led. If this feature is paramount to your install then by all means upgrade, but if not then sit back, relax and know that the next time you encounter a police lidar you will be fully protected. Can the other manufacturers say the same?
Thanks for listening
