I personally have the escort 9500ix. Has saved me so many times. But then again, only when the cops have their radar or lazer on.

I'm pretty sure I've replied to this in the past.. but.. I've had a Valentine one for over 6 years and its:

A) Never broke down, even through 120 degree Vegas heat
B) Paid for itself 100 times over.

Beltronics Sti-R, supposed to be the best, but also is 1k bucks
Edit: guess it is discontinued? 600 bucks now http://www.bestradardetectors.net/Pr...Code=Bel-STi-R

I have a 9500i, but I would recommend the V1 just because you get the same or better performance and you get to see where it is coming from

I have three V1's - although I haven't looked at newer technology for a while, the Valentine continues to work well.

Beltronics... 950 or something like that... who knows they probably don't make it anymore... got it when i was 17, still have it now at 26... truly irrelevant though... Beltonics in general is the way to go... just the right amount of sensitivity...

Valentines are too good... to the point where they pick up anything and everything and don't ever stop going off... at least in crowded NJ

I just purchased from Rocky Mountain Radar, C475.
I have yet to install it, but it'll detect and scramble both radar and laser.

Valentine. You can keep an eye on craigslist and probably pick up the one that got stolen out of my car for half price..
