That's because you are probably getting hit with laser and none of them will save you unless you have a laser jammer.

I got my Bel RX65 cheap on E-bay. Think $250 shipped.

 

i have yet to get a ticket with my 4 year old k40 - well worth the money

 

I've had a V1 for about 4 years now and I still am loving it. Damn thing is very impressive.

 

it seems that ppl who have thye V1 are really loyal to it. Sometimes I think I'm the only person in the world who tried it and sent it back I wonder if the V1 users have ever really tried anything else.....

 

I had the Passport and I switched to V1

 

I have a V1 and the arrows are killer! If I drive past a Walgreens and the detector is beeping yet there is a sherrif 1000ft up the road I know it and I know exactly where to look, no need to check all my mirrors. I also was recently reflashed for FREE to add pop coverage to my V1. Customer support is tops bar-none with Valentine.

I spoke to a few Air Force pilots about the V1. They use it in many of their trainers for dog fight simulation. If it's good enough to detect a sidewinder missle, it's good enough to detect a cop.

 

I got my Escort 8500 X50 on ebay for $259.00 shipped.

 

This sounds a bit suspect.... The USAF uses V1's in their trainer aircraft to detect sidewinder missiles? Is this some kind of urban myth or what.... I know a little bit about military and government procurement, and I've also worked on several military aircraft projects many years ago. If the V1 was used in miltary aircraft for missile detection, we'd sure know all about it by now and the V1's would prolly not be available for the public to buy....... Oh yeah, I don't know that they install any commercially available products in any military aircraft. Actually every single part of any military item has a mil-spec number and a mil-spec sheet. I've never seen the mil-spec for a radar detector associated with the V1....

 

I am ADAF and have never seen nor heard of the V1 in any A/C.

 

Funny, in this whole thread no talk of K40. That's what's in my sled.

haha wow good joke. as a flying crew member in the USAF I can guarantee you there is no V1 in any military aircraft hahah. wow. good one.

 

Also, Wingnut, I didn't know they actually shot sidewinders in "simulation."
