Default It's Official...Lidatek is out of business....

Their website is up, phones ring, rolls to voicemail which is "full", and emails are returned.

Talked to a local installer, said they can no longer get them.

So my proclamation that they are out of business may be an exageration of their demise, as they could all be on holiday, however it is total crickets over there.

I found a single transponder unit on eBay. If anyone knows anyone that has at least a dual (preferably) trio unit, unused, I want one.

radarbusters (and my local installer) recommends Blinder now.

Default So you couldn't reach them so that makes it Official???

Hardly. But it's NOT a good sign of a healthy business. I ordered a few months ago and went through the same thing you did. They did call me back though (after about a week). Got a free t-shirt, free shipping, and a great discount. It's my fourth Lidatek, they are great units.
