Bluetooth is key, sucks when you forget your dongle in a docking station.

That being said, considering the last couple of years when LSP has had road Troopers and high ranking brass arrested and convicted for sex crimes, kiddie porn, theft, beating people to death, conspiracy to cover up crimes, etc. One would think they wouldn't have much power. Yet people still defer to them like they are some mystical source of good.

The last time I was pulled over by LSP for no seat belt I noticed his inspection sticker was long expired. I pointed it out and he said, “we don’t have to have them on our vehicles.” I pointed out the hypocrisy and he replied, “I didn’t pull you over for an inspection sticker.”

Absolute horse shite. I was pulled over twice in one day driving a 4yr old 4Runner with no damage/issues. First stop was multiple LSP officers doing a check on hwy 73. Later in the day I was pulled over by BRPD. He pulled a U-turn on Kenilworth solely for the expired sticker.

It’s 100% a money grab.

Are you looking for a containment collar or tracking/training?

The Garmin works great for tracking/training but won’t provide containment (you can set it for geo-location notifications).

I just had a motor go out on my 2nd dolphin, I looked into switching to cordless but I decided I didn’t want to mess with recharging. I ended up going with a Polaris corded. If you are in BR I will give you my power supply from the dolphin active 20.

re: BRPD high speed chase WBR 190 west

Sure, for the ones initially on the chase. But I saw the first cops fly past on 190 when I got on from 415. The last cop cars I saw was flying north on 110.

This, there were at least 10-12 BRPD officers 5-10mns behind the pursuit deep into WBR parish, lights on swerving in/out of traffic. I don’t have an issue with the 4-5 BRPD officers in close pursuit and the 3-4 troopers following them.

Exactly what I was thinking of. I saw 1 WBR deputy putting his spike strip back in the car. There were a couple of troopers following behind the initial chase but every other police vehicle trailing was BRPD.

I have seen at least 20 BRPD officers driving westbound on 190 in WBR. Anyone else have info?

All good info, but just wanted to add you can run the g4/g6 instants with POE using a POE/USB C adapter if you don’t have an outlet handy.

If OP really wants to go UniFi for cameras but doesn’t want to go all in on their gateway/ap’s/switches they did start offering the UNVR-Instant kit that includes the NVR/Protect/4 G5 ultra turrets/POE switch.
