Hey guys, I was just wondering if I could get your opinions/views on who makes the best radar/laser detectors. I'll be getting my FC soon and thats the first thing I'm going to need. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



So list the brands and models you like/own and why.

Valentine 1... 'nuff said



on that note I have a k40 (like 250-300) I basically should have saved to get the V1 but after getting a ticket for speeding while being passed by a f350 i decided i'd have to get something https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

i asked this question about 3 months ago..... and everyone said valentine one.... i still dont have one yet though, but there were no other suggestions, just valentine one

I am selling a Passport 7500 in the parts for sale section. It is good but not the best. The Valentine One runs about $400. I just bought one. After having the 7500 and now the V-1 I have to say the V-1 is way more sensitive. I like the direction indicator as well as the bogey count.



But for $125 shipped the 7500 isn't too shabby. Shameless plug here folks https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

V-1 just saved me from a ticket this evening 90 in a 65. Freaking V-1 warned me about 1 1/2 miles before the speed trap. It is awesome.



In another spot I was getting radar but weak. I looked ahead and a trooper had a dude pulled over. Up ahead was another trooper with his lights out waiting. My indicator told me 2 bogeys so I stayed off the gas.



My wife was laughing at me because I was all excited when I saw 2 bogeys and 1 cop. Once I discovered the other cop I carrying on about how great the V-1 is. She doesn't understand.



I feel like I am driving with a force field around my car. Lovin it!!

Hey JIM what version of the V1 do you have... 1.7 , 1.8???

Jims5543 08-31-2003 08:31 PM

Tell me where to find what version and I'll tell you. I can tell you I bought it 7 days ago from Valentine.

DRFT 08-31-2003 09:23 PM

Then you have version 1.8 which is the newest version...



Do you think the 400$ is worth it?? or should i get a used one and upgrade it to version 1.8?

Jims5543 09-01-2003 09:44 AM

How much would a 95MPH in a 65MPH ticket cost?



How much can you get a used one for? and why would someone sell it anyway??
