Q: WHY SUCH A GOOD PRICE?
A: VOLUME OF UNITS SOLD!

     Every unit is hand assembled by an American engineer with more than 10 years of experience. Each system is individually signed by that same craftsman as a symbol of pride and experience.

   New 2 Piece Design Fits any Vehicle!
     The Martel Digital Enterceptor-2 has quickly become the United States Standard Digital Police Car video system. The US Military has deployed them to Iraq, Afghanistan and Kuwait. Customers include the US Air Force, Navy, BLM, Border Patrol, US Forest service, Coast Guard, FEMA, ATF, Homeland Security, Lockheed Martin and a majority of Sheriff and Police departments in all 50 states. We have over 5,000 state and local law enforcement agencies as customers.
     The Martel MDE2 is the Next generation of Police Mobile Digital Video Systems. We combined state-of-the-art digital recording and easy video archiving to make your life simple. Martel's Digital MDE2 police in car video system has key distinct advantages to law enforcement agencies: Touch Screen controls, No moving parts, pre-event recording, lawsuit protection. Now you can capture an incident on video and defend your organization from potential liability arising from lawsuits. We have eliminated any moving parts, including buttons. We use advanced touch screens in the system so there is nothing to break down on you. Our new Digital MDE2 is the most significant police in-car video system since VHS was introduced in the late 1970’s. It is the first video system that completely overcomes the drawbacks of tape systems without introducing the new set of back office computer problems and court admissibility issues inherent with all other digital video systems.
