have been using one of these for about a year with no problems. 2 weeks ago on the way to the new forest stuck in traffic(stationary) on the M25 near Heathrow the laser alert went ballistic. then driving south down the M3 @70mph the laser alert went off 5 more times- each time no sign of police anywhere and each time i was within the NSL.Happened again yesterday(within speed limit) in Henley 3 times still no sign of anything or anyone.
Is anyone else with one of these experiencing problems with the laser alert.(works fine with gatsos)

Don't worry about it. You are just being targetted by an RAF jet equipped with LRMTS :wink:

The laser detector on my Origin B2 sometimes false alarms on the M25 near Heathrow too. When I drove into the business car park at Heathrow T3 (right next to the runway) once, it went absolutely nuts.

Obviously something on the runway or the planes themselves uses IR at or near the same wavelength as speed guns.

There are several RAF bases near the M3, so you could get the same thing there I guess, although I never have.
