Which Radar Detector to get?

[Redx]

What is this? 1995? Who uses a radar detector anymore?

AL Priority and Waze.

Still need something for k and ka band for them mexico pulls, I run ALP with the escort passport max2 but may try the net radar add on for the ALP next year.

Just had my V1 upgraded by valentine, it now negates the false alarms from GM cars and there side detection radar. The V1 and the waze app together really covers your butt.

What is AL priority? I'll have to check out waze. Just seems annoying having to constantly monitor the phone screen while driving.

Bluetooth to your radio, uses your speakers. No monitoring the phone screen needed

Does it require you to always have a route in your phone for where you're driving, or will it alert for police without a route?

It is bluetooth, yes, but most importantly its a laser jammer.

You don't need a route, it just alerts you to reported police ahead of where ever you are going.

I used Waze this morning, neat app. Can't believe I've never used it before. I just need to adjust the alert settings so I get less alerts, but that's an easy fix.

Have tried this one and the escort app, both I found useless as it's not exactly real time and relies on people to update it.

Escort Max 360 with directional arrows > archaic V1 > Waze which only works on popular roads where a cop WAS earlier

You guys who are relying on Waze are gonna have a bad time...

Trained cop detecting eyes plus Max 360 plus Waze is king

Have a Passport 9500IX. Good detection and very low false alarms.

Front license plates:
Perhaps this is the Alberta Advantage I've been hearing about: no need for a front plate on vehicles. Nah forget that; any aesthetic benefit we have is heavily measured against the most stringent photo radar, speed trap enforcement in N. America. This province has become a bit of a vehicle police state in last 5 yrs.

I know this thread started in 2014; but I'll add to what I've said previously about Valentine One's:

I have run Valentine One's for several years. I've only received one speeding ticket in all those years when running a V1 and that was in my wife's BMW. The V1 alerted but the trooper was running instant on so it was too late for me to react. I got a ticket for running 80 in a 65. I was really running 90mph; but the Oklahoma state trooper knocked off 10mph without me opening my mouth.

Trained cop detecting eyes plus...

1. Don't do anything stupid.
2. Keep an eye out. ALWAYS.
3. Only get it on it with wide open road ahead and nobody else around. Then...
