The performance of the new Laser Jammers is much better than the ZR-3 and ZR-4's, but still not that great compared to Blinder and the leader in the market ALP.
Personally if you want to have the best of all worlds get a Beltronics STiR Plus with an ALP, 2 heads in front and 1 in rear (if you want, laser hits in the rear are very rare). I had this setup in my Jaguar F-Type R. I have an ALP in a bag in my garage that I need to install, just have not had the time to do it, I may go with a STiR+ as well vs. my Max2 which is awesome, but not quite sure yet. The 9500ci is due for an upgrade and I feel like now with directional capabilities available to all (V1 patent expired) and mapping they are going to come out with something cool so I will wait.
Great post How does the ALP compare to the Laser Pro shifters they now switched too with the 9500ci?

Ferruccio, your solution is where I want to ultimately land but I agree with abedh on the fact that there is likely going to be a and upgrade on the 9500 and I feel like waiting for that. This is the problem with integrated solutions...you are kind of stuck with the technology. However, I am in the same place as you abedh... I almost want to wait a bit, maybe until this summer but want a temporary fix in the meantime So your solution sounds good. Just a question. Why did you could into cabin lights and not the garage door opener wiring that way it would be switched power?
I told myself Id wait the last 2 years too for an upgrade...but its nowhere in sight, nothing @ SEMA or CES, so you may be waiting another year or 2 before we finally see the upgrade. In the meantime I keep cracking out the 9500ci build
