O/T Road Angel Plus

[GWatson]

I have had my Road Angel PLus for over one month now. While being very impressed with the wide range of services the device provides, I have to say I am very disappointed with one particular function.

Up in the North East of Scotland, the Road Angel very rarely indicates mobile sites. I drove the same route with my friends device. It picked up over 8 potential camera site within a 15 mile stretch which is much more realistic, whereas the Road Angel picks up zero.

His device, a Talex Lite, costs less than £90 yet has a much more comprehensive database with free updates. I purchased a Road Angel because of the reputation it has, perhaps they work well in England, but I don't have any confidence using it up here.

Also I have had two cops pointng their hair dryer at me and it's never alerted me....

Anyone else had any problems? I've written a letter and demanded I wanted to return the device and cancel my direct debit for the subscription.

Depends what the hairdryer was. If it was a laser, then it needs to be pointed directly at the detector for the detector to see it. The beam is *very* narrow, much narrower than a radar gun beam...
