Steer clear of these things, a lad got one on Thursday who works with us, he's going to take it back because it doesn't show all the cameras.

well if he does all he will be told is that it says as a disclaimer that you use it at your own peril,,i.e.,,if u get snapped then its your responsibilty,,if it ever went as far as suing the firm,,it wouldnt stand a sniff in court,,they look upon these type of gadgets as going against the laws and rules of the road,,,best advice is to read independant reviews of equipment prior to purchase,,its a grey area and it sucks,,good luck to him though,,,

dont think even the road angel or other jammers can do that. most gatso's still have the radar or laser active and it still flashes at you even if there no actual camera in the box.

No geoff you have to look at them yourself, if there are no flash bulbs in the top window the camera is empty.

you need to register the Road Angel at Blackspot.com. Once done, you should receive an activated serial number on the database and can be updated frequently by connecting it to a PC where you run the Road Angel Update Program over the internet. Within seconds it's updated with new cameras from the Blackspot central database. Most of these updates are provided on a weekly release, so you can always keep up to date with the latest camera lists. :wink:
