RADAR DETECTORS POLL

  

fastsilverstang -> RADAR DETECTORS POLL (2/13/2005 12:17:55 PM)

What is the best radar detector!

  
InfernoKron -> RE: RADAR DETECTORS POLL (2/13/2005 12:44:10 PM)

Bel and Beltronics are the same I believe. I don't have a radar detector yet, so no input on the actual topic.

stinkystang -> RE: RADAR DETECTORS POLL (2/14/2005 11:35:07 AM)

i just bought a valentine one and it is the best radar detector i have ever had....a little pricey but worth the extra money for the performance

I totally agree man, my dad bought one for his 04 GTO and it is by far the best out of all he has bought in the past. Not only are the arrows sweet that show you where the radar is coming from but it picks up signals from so far away. One night driving in the city it picked it up the signal from a cop that was well over a 1/4 mile away and down a hill.

I was thinking about getting a valentine one, after going to the gas station and a cop totally shadowing me, even following me after I left the gas station and followed me into the bank, then drove away.....but do these things actually work? My friend has one and all it does it make annoying sounds and say lots of retarded things, Ive never seen it work.

mine?

Guest -> RE: RADAR DETECTORS POLL (2/16/2005 5:34:53 PM)

I know this has been covered 100 billion times.

The Valentine one is supposed to be number 1.
Escort passport 8500 is 2
passport 7500 is 3

I have the 7500 and I can get K band from upwards of a half mile away, and I've gotten X band from around corners 1/4 mile away.

There's 4 or so places in town that will set your radar off (automatic doors), you just need to learn when it goes off, how high the warning usually goes and just pay attention to it.

Keeping your speed within reason is the best option, but I like having my detector to know when i'm getting buzzed.

i was worried abut spending the money on something that doesnt work...but i am happy with my V1...it definitely works and i think is worth the money...not sure how the others work but the V1 dfinitely rocks[sm=icon_rock.gif]

I know what you mean about some making annoying sounds all the time, but the V1 is the best one you can get. Sure there are times that it goes off around a convenience store, but it doesn't happen much at all, and you'll be glad you have it when you're doing 100 on the hwy and it picks up a cop further away than you can imagine.

1SLO85 -> RE: RADAR DETECTORS POLL (2/17/2005 1:30:45 PM)

There is an art to using a radar detector. If you don't know how and when to use it, no matter how good it is, you will still get OWNED.

kubball2005 -> RE: RADAR DETECTORS POLL (2/17/2005 6:30:08 PM)

True, but the V1 probably gives you less of a margin for error [;)]

Jimmz -> RE: RADAR DETECTORS POLL (2/17/2005 10:48:13 PM)

The most expensive one lol ... you get what you pay for... I bought a whistler that retails for 89.99, and I got it for 19.99 on sale, it works good but not nearly as good as the ones that cost $300+

Chanedeezy4106 -> RE: RADAR DETECTORS POLL (2/19/2005 12:13:00 PM)

For the cost i would go with a Cobra!
