This little Pogo Alert product is sure to make you jump.
**** Auto Express Rating
The speed camera locator emits such an ear-piercing warning as you approach cameras that you can’t fail to miss it.
From the maker of the Origin b2 – a former Auto Express product test winner – the new Pogo range offers a compact alternative to often bulky rivals. The Pogo Alert is only slightly bigger than a ring box and packs in a host of features.
Most important of the lot is the speed camera-locating GPS technology that uses satellite positioning and a comprehensive database of traps. The Pogo Alert flashes up a display of the type of camera you’re approaching and a beep as you near it. It warns of Gatso, Watchman, Specs, Truvelo, and Speed Curb, plus known locations of speed camera vans and accident black-spots. It performed well on our test, even if the alerts were sometimes a little slow.
Included in the price is a six-month free subscription to Origin’s database, which is updated three times a week. After that it costs £50 a year. We did find the 1.8-inch TFT colour screen a little dull, especially in sunlight, and it was often hard to read information. The menu is also fiddly to navigate, but otherwise it impresses.
