Agreed.
Indeed, this "WTF" is exactly what everyone thinks about the performance of the M25/35/45 Blinders.
I believe that this was such a disappointment that many members of the community who had originally been the most vocal supporters of Blinder's products in-turn became very disillusioned and bitter towards Blinder, in the same way that VEIL had a "falling out" with many members of the community.

I read all the jammer stuff. Why would they leak? Where the hell do they think they be mounted? Its cold, hot, wet, salty, come on guys, make me want one worse than I do. For the price of any jammer, make it last.

I agree - they need to "make it last."
However, I can also see why they would leak. It's not as easy to make a good, weather/road-resistant setup that the jammers would require (removeable/replaceable covering/protective "lens," etc.).
Car-makers spend untold amounts of money to develop such durable and reliable OEM parts as well as OEM-accessories, and it is clear that many, many aftermarket components - even ones from supposed "big names," do not carry nearly the same qualities.
I see this as a simple R&D time/cost issue. Given enough time, it seems that yes, the "smaller" jammer makes are getting it right - look at the latest versions of the AL and LPP, for example, it seems that they're finally becoming "lasting/durable" items.
To wit, it even took Escort a few tries to get things right with the ZR3, in terms of durability/reliability...and they've got the development bucks to spend.
