I was thinking about purchasing a Valentine One radar detector and was hoping to get some feedback on people experiences. Are you still getting tickets How far does it give you when it goes off? Is there problems with automatic doors or cars with back up sensors tripping it?

Thanks

Chris

 

plz search this has been beaten to death. I have one and i cant drive a car without it. Yes every radar detector will be alerted by automatic doors. Most doors use xband, and you can disable x band like i did. some doors use the K band. Lots of cops still use K band.

 

I never leave home without it and it has definately saved me LOTS. I'm also paranoid when I'm driving in a different vehicle because I don't have the beeps that comforts me.

 

"Valentine One...Worth the money ??? "

One word, ABSOLUTELY.

Do a search and you'll find TONS of threads on this.

 

$400 for my V1 is the best money I've spent on my car. You won't be disappointed. The worst inconvenience is that the brake LED on the Chevy Trailblazer will set off the laser sensor (which sounds like an air raid siren when it's activated.) That's a minor inconvenience to live with for all the benefits, though.

 

Thanks for all the info I will order one this week, Now i just have to see how you are all installing them. I will do a search.

Thanks guys,

Chris

 

2 words....HELL YEAH!!!!!!

 

first thing i bought for my Z... saved my *** dozens of times in the past 5 months...

as for install, i went the ghetto route... black phone cord from the cig lighter up to a low central winshield position... haha

 

LMAO You ghetto'd up your Z Its ok i removed my rear emblems and drive around with two holes. Shoulda bought a 80 somethin honda and duct taped the thing together

 

lol, with a volvo like this: http://www.perfidy.net/images/volvo/index.htm is it any wonder that i had to bring at least a bit of the ghetto to the Z?

 

OMG that has got to be the nastiest thing i have ever seen. You are brave to claim it.
