Exactly. They haven't used Radar in the UK for years
Though my Origin B2 has Laser detection, it's mainly useful if they aren't targetting your car and you can get the "scatter" from the reflected laser.
Careful with a Jammers though. Guy (with IIRC a Range Rover) got zapped a few times and they never got a reading because of the jammer. After the 4th or 5th time the police got suspicous so arranged to have the car impounded. They found the jammer and charged him with for "perverting the course of justice" Ultimately it was dropped but it's something to be wary of.
Have a little read of

It's not clear if the rules have actually outlawed Laser detectors at the moment. Jammers can also open electronic gates/garage doors so if you have that fitted you may be able to explain their presence on your car.
Road Angel, Pogo, Snooper all get reasonable reviews. But don't rely solely on ANY of them to save you. You still need to be aware.
