Effectiveness of radar detectors on the interstate?

Is a radar detector still a good tool to avoid getting clocked traveling on the interstate? They seem to have their place around town with city cops, but hasn't the CHP switched to laser devices? Anyone have any real life experiences avoiding being clocked by the CHP on the interstate recently?

I am not a triple digit speeder, but like to travel the average speed everyone does on the major interstates in CA. Bad news is that in a 911, you'll be the guy picked out, over the camry or volvo driving next to you.

Let me know what your opinion is on CHP and detectors. No, this is not "what radar detector should I buy", as I have searched those threads extensively already!
