| When I bought this radar detector I was at first questioning it because it was the cheapest one and a few days went by where I seen no cop and I wasnt sure if it was working, until I was coming home from my girl friends house at around 1:30 in the morning and it started beeping, I slowed down and looked around and seen no lights and I thought I was the only one on the road then I started goin down a big hill and it stoped beeping then as I got back up the other side of the hill it started beeping again so I thought the thing was junk then the radar dector started going nuts and then I seen the cop sitting off to the side with all its lights off (which is allowed in the state of Indiana) and was happy that I had the radar detector, because I would of probably gotten a speeding ticket. I figured the radar detector picked up the cop about a mile before I seen him so all in all it was a great purchase and I am very pleased with it. |

| I received this item very quickly and used it for a trip down to Florida and back. It works well with few false alarms and two mounting options are nice. I'd recommend this product |
Great Product

| For the price, I think that it is the best deal on the market. Free super savers shipping is a great incentive. |

I have used this unit on highway driving and it is fantastic at picking up highway cops running their radars.
However, if you drive mainly in suburban / urban areas you will pick up false signals (automatic door openers set all the radar detectors off). For example anytime I drive past a 7-11 / Walgreens / Grocery Store the detector will get set off because of the automatic doors. It has a "city" feature which will turn down the sensitivity of the detector, which cuts down on the false positives but does not eliminate them.
I work with someone who has a $400 detector and he effectively has the same issues. He has the GPS unit that you can "train" to block out (by saving the location coordiantes) those false positives based on your location (ie. you drive past the same grocery store each day and it gets set off -- the GPS will remember that location and mute the detector); so pretty much for $40 you are getting the same functionality of the $400 GPS enabled unit, but you will not be able to block out the false positives.
I typically only use mine when I get on the highway and it is great for that. I have dodged a few tickets with cops in underpassses or at the bottom of hills by following this thing.
I highly recommend the unit, but I do not believe ANYONE has created a unit that will not get false readings. The GPS units do work to block false positives but they are pretty expensive still.
This is a great price at $40. |
