Origin B2 Radar Module

[northy]

Emailed origin to find out when the radar module is avaliable.

Dear Mr Northrop,

Unfortunately they are not available just yet, we were expecting them to arrive later this month, however we are just waiting for expected changes in legislation before we make this certain.



What legislation are they on about ??

Also went through a mobile speed trap (a police motorbiker with camera on a tripod in York) and it didnt go off......So it carnt of been a lazer camera.

Any ideas lads ?

laser and radar units have a ban proposal on them.

GPS units are not affected.

Eh ????

Seriously.......Might sell it then....as ive been a little disapointed recently with it giving false alarms and out of date camera details.

So if they do ban it - what would happen then ????

cant see them banning them, as said, they would only ban the dedicated detectors. Road angel and b2 are GPS recievers hence they will be ok.

Unless they count the laser reception to be banned also.

I update mine twice a week (RA2),

northy I think that it will have probably been laser from the guy in york, maybe you wernt going fast enough for him to fire at you? Dont think they use radar guns anymore, prefering laser for the accuracy they give.

is your laser reciever near the bottom of the windscreen, as they say this is the best place to get good reception but under 200m you will always struggle with laser.

Any updates yet lads ??
