My trusty Bell radar detector died on the Route 66. It was rather old and had been serviced / updated several years ago. I was happy with it's performance, but I think it is time to upgrade to some more modern electronics.
Valentine One seems to have an excellent reputation. Is that what I should buy, or do you have a better recommendation ? Attached image(s) |

Great information, thank you all for sharing! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
So, by Whistler, would it include this low end model I bought 30 years ago? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) It's been collecting dust for the past 20-25, mostly because I thought technology had evolved and these were now useless, but maybe I should start using it again?

It'll still work... just less false alarm filtering... and not on LIDAR!! That's a cool old detector though!
