    Huper Optik is ceramic. He was talking about Huper.

    AFAIK, no. When I asked a quote from them a few months ago, they gave me a quote for only one variant. Quickly checking their website yields the same conclusion.

    Same here. I have CS30 on my WS. I thought its supposed to work. But I guess that's the old epass gadget, not this new RFID strip.

    Gotcha, thanks for the info. That makes totally sense then. If it's the Essential series (metallic based) then that explains why RF signals are being partially blocked.

    You can have your windshield tinted to ceramic series. Around 5k ata for the C70 line. Good timing since mmda will be looking out for dark windshield tints next year....

    Yeah although I'm not looking for new tint as of the moment. I just had my new car tinted with Sunbloc a few weeks ago.

    Sharing: claimed warranty on my CS30 from 5+ years ago due to ghosting which I tolerated for so many years now. HO obliged and now, almost 2 weeks after installation, no traces of ghosting is present.

    Really, the skill of the installer is key.

    I have the free essential series and the guy from NLEX said that RFID won't work. If I were to have the premium series, will it work?

    Had C30 on my windshield before and the RFID scanner couldn't read the supposed winshield sticker

    Thank you. That means to say that I have to "fall in line" in Cavitex. I seldom go there but the convenience... any recommendations for other brands?

    Sunbloc is getting some recognition here. It allows the RFID windshield sticker to be scanned, according to the tsikoteers who had their rides tinted. I'm just waiting if the tint law will still push through before deciding what tint grade to install on my winshield.

    On the other hand, the RFID sticker on the headlight isn't a problem unless you frequent shady places where some kid might scratch it off. Huper Optik's really effective, basing it off my previous car

    The thickness of the C30 might be the problem plus the power level of the scanner.

    On rare occurrences, the RFID works for me but I noticed this only happens in certain toll gates.

    Got used to showing the card already

    Agree. Even the CS70 is quite effective on the sun/moonroof.

    Wish it was cheaper though

    Have Huper Optik CS70 on my windshield for almost 5 years now. still effective on hot noontime. nice also during nightime driving. my only gripe is that it does not filter the glare of sunlight and that you need sunglasses while driving. CS50 is I think the "sweetest spot" between night and daytime driving. I havent tried the CS30 though during nighttime driving....
