Laser gun defeats Blinder M45 Xtreme laser jammer

Kustom ProLaser III vs Retail Blinder M45 Xtreme laser jammer Test and Review

Test vehicle notes: We specifically chose the Chrysler 300M for this laser jammer test because the cars dimensions are almost identical to the Dodge Charger used in the latest Blinder Xtreme commercial. The Blinder Xtreme laser jammer commercial had a plateless Charger giving the impression to the viewer a Blinder M25(only 2 heads on the car!) will work flawlessly against a Kustom ProLaser III.

Blinder commercials vs retail unit independent testing: The commercial uses a car with ONLY 2 heads, a Blinder M25 Xtreme. For our 300M we doubled the jammer protection by putting 4 jammer heads up front even when the car is virtually the same size as the Charger. That’s 100% more laser jammer heads for the reality testing. Did we have to do this? No. We figure anyone watching a commercial is smart enough to know the difference between hype and real testing. Comparing apples with apples we even covered up the license plate with the Blinder M45 box sleeve for most of the test runs!

Laser gun notes: The ProLaser III made by Kustom Signals is the most common lidar speed gun you’ll find in the United States. This laser gun is also touted in the laser jammer industry as being the easiest gun to jam. The gun operator mounted the Kustom ProLaser III on a tripod and held the video camera up to the HUD.

10 Tripod mounted ProLaser III runs

Summary outcome from part 1 of 2 test videos:

Run #1 -- Speed reading at 962'

Run #2 -- Speed reading at 1,580'

Run #3 -- Speed reading at 321'

Run #4 -- Speed reading at 479'

Run #5 – Speed reading at 755’



Summary outcome from part 2 of 2 test videos:

Run #6 -- Speed reading at 540'

Run #7 -- Speed reading at 322'

Run #8 -- Speed reading at 759'

Run #9 -- Speed reading at 285'

Run #10 – Speed reading at 781’



Average punch through reading from 10 runs = 678.4 feet

One conclusion can definitely come from these punch through numbers. If a Blinder M45 Xtreme laser jammer isn’t sufficient enough to protect you from laser how on earth can a Blinder M25 Xtreme protect you? Remember our test car had the plate blocked by the Blinder box sleeve most of the time and the car is virtually the same size as the Dodge Charger in the Blinder commercial.
