Radar detectors

[01yelrt]

The V1 has the multiple threat indicator with arrows and it helps a ton!! I've had many occasions where the arrows and threat counter told me that the cop I'm looking at is not working alone. Driving another 1/2 mile reveals the second or third cop waiting over a hill. I have had the V1 since 2001 and not one ticket!! I had passports and escorts in the past and none compare to the V1. Get the V1!

I'll add to 01yelrt"s comment - I had occasion to drive through an industrial area in town every morning. At one point I would see two "bogeys" on the left side of the road, probably from an alarm system. One morning there were THREE Smokey had hidden between some real estate signs, looking to make some money. The V1, with threat #s and locations saved me a ticket for sure.

The manufacturers of radar detectors ought to design the power imput and the mounting bracket so the unit can be easilly slid in and out without having to manually pull the cord. I used to have a Whistler with the plug port in front, so I fabbed up a bracket to hold the plug in the right position. This allowed the unit to be installed and removed with a single motion. Then, I merely put the detector in my shirt pocket. With open top cars, especially Cobras that can't be locked anyhow, it is really necessary to remove the radar detector when parking the vehicle in public. Being able to remove and insert the radar detector with a single movement is really convenient.
