None they don't work. Get the episode of MythBusters where they do the RADAR testing and then the photo camera stuff. If the RADAR detector picks it up, you've already been tagged. Not to mention most departments have moved on to LIDAR (laser) and there's no detectors for those (though some claim to have made scramblers... but they don't work for the other and vice versa).

My suggestion... don't speed. Simple as that. But if you want to spend hundreds on a system that picks up microwave ovens and other electronics then be my guess. But like I said, if you're picking it up, they've picked you up too. Unless of course they're sitting there with their RADAR waving around and not really looking for stops.
