Road Angel Gem and Gem Deluxe speed camera detectors feature GPS, GPRS/GSM and Laser technology all designed to help warn of approaching speed camera and accident blackspot locations across the UK.

At the heart of the Road Angel Gem is a GPS database of all fixed and mobile speed traps. Unlike most other detectors, which need to be connected to a PC to be updated, the Road Angel Gem doesn't require that, instead it updates itself automatically when and where you need it most - on the road! This is thanks to the built-in GPRS/GSM mobile phone technology (SIM card is included). Even better news - you need do nothing in the update process except pay for the subscription!

The Road Angel Gem also features a Laser detector, although mobile speed cameras are included in the GPS database if you come across a LIVE Laser based safety camera Partnership van or handheld gun the Road Angel's Laser detector will also alert you.

What's the difference between the Road Angel Gem and Gem Deluxe?

The Road Angel Gem Deluxe version is exactly the same as the standard Gem model, the difference is the Gem Deluxe includes extra accessories. These accessories include a carry case, windscreen suction cup mount, hardwire kit (enabling you to hardwire the Gem into your vehicles electrical supply) and 2.5metre USB Cable. You can also buy all of these accessories separately, although buying them bundled with the Gem Deluxe model represents a huge saving!

CameraShare

The CameraShare feature allows you at the press of a button to share LIVE mobile speed camera locations with other Road Angel Gem users. Road Angel's database of course includes mobile speed camera locations, but as they appear in different locations at different times pressing the CameraShare button will flag it as a LIVE mobile speed camera location. Other motorists using a Road Angel Gem driving the same section of road will then be notified of the flagged LIVE camera van location for the following two hours.

Road Speed Limit Display

As well as speed camera locations, the Road Angel Gem also features a database of UK road speed limits. So no matter what road you are driving and whether a speed camera is present or not you'll be safe in the knowledge of what the speed limit is! The SpeedShare feature also let you advise new or revised road speed limits at the touch of a button.

SpeedShare

The SpeedShare feature allows you at the press of a button to advise Road Angel of a differing speed limit to that in the Road Angel speed camera or speed limit database. The database will then be updated to reflect the new speed limit.

This product is a sophisticated electronic device which requires that you read, understand, and act upon the information given in the instruction manual (usually available via the above 'manual' link). You will need internet access and, in accordance with the manufacturers’ recommendations, regularly seek out and accept all firmware or software updates offered by the manufacturer. All GPS devices need to ‘see’ the satellites in the sky. Therefore you will need to know that your vehicle does not have glass that will block or impede the GPS signal.

Updates to this product are via the internet. At this product page we state compatibility with specific versions of current internet connection devices, for example: PC, laptop, MAC, smartphone etc. The Consumer Contract Regulations allow you 14 days, from receipt of purchase, to check compatibility with your internet connection device/s. If you choose to replace or update your PC, MAC etc. neither we nor the manufacturer will be responsible if the new/replacement Operating System (OS) is not compatible with the purchased product.

The same advice about vehicle glass applies to radar and laser signals.
