Thread: Radar detector

    The way I'm reading it the "Best overall performance" was the BEL Pro RX65. Escort seems to have picked up price/performance.
    Oh, and seeing how they spent about 2 times as much space picking the V1 to pieces, it would seem to me that they have some kind of an axe to grind, or at least they did back in July of '05.
    Don't get me wrong, the V1 is a great unit and was always head and shoulders above the rest. I have always thought that they were the best. I was actually getting ready to buy two of them when I did a little research and found out that the Escort and Bel had caught up and surpassed it in performance. I just think that the X50 is a killer unit for a great price. Don't knock it til ya try it

    I just bought my second V1, as my car was broken into and the only thing they took was my first V1. I think they are awsome and a great feature about them is that you can send them in for any new updats that they come out with. Just my .02.

    Are there any legality issues regarding use of radar detectors in California and Arizona?

    Only one I know of is that you can't have it mounted up under the rear-view mirror in AZ (probably the same in CA).....but it is just a warning from AZ DPS.....yes, I know from experience.....

    Same in both states; just cannot impair view of road eg windshield mounted too high. But you can velcro it to the dash or visor clip it.

    How about above the rear view mirror?

    Yeah, I programmed mine right into the trash can and got a Valentine 1, then got tired of having to switch which car it was in and got another one.
    I want to say, granted mine was an older one, that there was a NO-X setting on it.
    Valentine = the only way to go

    I would think that is ok since you can clip it to the sun visor. when I got pulled over by DPS all I got was a warning.....but it was a written warning that I guess now the State of AZ has on file.....

    Hmm, never heard that, but I guess it's kind of common sense. Knock on wood, I've never been stopped with my V1. Had a few wasting of a finite resource meetings back when I had the Passport.
