I’m pretty sure that most of you guys do over the legal speed limit and I was wondering if you guys use radar detectors or not? If so please post what you have or had. Thanks
Although i’m not saying that speeding is a good thing… but The cobra has been known to save my ass a few times…
What cobra model do you have?
I got a older model Cobra digital/talking radar.
Not sure on the model #, but it works great.
I had a Whistler digital/talking one too, but it sounded annying, and it wasn’t accurate. Gave me alot of false readings.
I ran them both in my car just to see which one was better.
I sold the Whistler QUICK. :run:
Best bang for the buck: Escort Passport 8500.

i dont know about that one…
ive read bunch of places and beltronics 995 is up there…
i ran my beltronics 995 against my boys V1, n i was really dissapointed in the V1
i have the beltronics 995 from circuit city. 4 year replacement warranty. they dont mail it off, just walk in and get the new one. and it has a voltage meter
How much does the Belltronics one run a person? The 8500 can be purchased for around $300 (at least that was last time I checked).
I’ve got the blue passport X50. Works great. Your not suposto run 2 radar detectors at once because they will make each other false. With the X50 i’ve never had a false alert with KA.

$269 from circuit city…
my 995 was like 280 on sale and 300 normaly. i think 40 bucks for the 4 year free replacement.
and its upgradeable
You got fucked over. Return it and buy the red X50 band new for $300 with a one year warenty.
fix your location homie. they aren’t joking
I was always under the impression radar detectors were illegall?
How do I fix it?
click on “User CP”.
I got my Cobra from Target on sale for like 42 bucks. It works just as good as any other 6 band if not better. It’s saved me a bunch. Especially the accuracy and range. Check out www.millionbuy.com for good prices, but also check locally just in case. You don’t need to spend 100+ dollars when a cheaper one will do just as good. Just so long as you get like a Cobra or whatever.
I was going on a trip to orlando so i just bought the most expensive cobra one.
Hah, ya sounds dumb but on the way it went off everytime there was a cop.
needed for all the. weight i was moving… joking
but really, they do help. just gets annoying sometimes
Detectors do get annoying with city driving. It depends on which RD you because you can turn X band off and POP off.
They now have radar jammers that are guaranteed to work. One company will even pay your ticket if you get one while using the jammer. Said to jam up to 2 miles away. I will find out the name and post it here for you.
Allthough I read they dont work and the FCC banned the use of then in 1977.
Go with a Cobra they are nice but just remember they dont work 100% of the time so the best idea is to be smart and not speed.
