Re: Question about mounting a laser jammer on a Hummer H3 Again, mliebs8, simply look at the community data. charles charlie charles initially had a dual-head LPP, which, upon testing with a PLIII, he found that it provided insufficient coverage to effect "true-JTG," with typical PTs nearing the 350 ft. range on his late-model Mercedes M-Class. This was later updated to a 3-head LPP, which allowed "true-JTG." Rear-of-vehicle, he noted that even a 3-head LPP was incapable of *any* semblance of sufficient protection.
It's easy to see why we - the individuals who have no monetary-gain interest in your setup - will readily recommend a three-head unit for you, in this case. Similarly, I would also like to say that if your area sees routine Laser Atlanta usage, that you should reconsider the LPP choice, as it has now been proven time and again that versus this threat, the LPP's performance is at-best inconclusive.
A dual-head LI has proven to be enough for not just this vehicle, but also effected "true-JTG" for the chrome-heavy version of the Nissan Frontier.
With the Blinder, your decision should be easy. Just go out to your garage and measure-off 18-inch radiuses, and mock-up a four-head installation. If all of your hardpoints rest within such radiuses, and you're willing to specifically point-reinforce your weakest areas with proper passive measures, this is also very viable. If there are many hardpoints that lie outside of the 18-inches of coverage and/or you feel that 4 heads is physically too many on your vehicle (impacts aesthetics and/or cooling efficiency), then again, the choice becomes clear.
When it boils down to hard data, your decision becomes much easier.
