i think doing the speed limit would be much simpler, though i can't speak from experience...

Bah, thats no fun!

My cheap little 6 band Cobra did me well. Only times I got pulled over is when it wasnt plugged in.
As far as Laser, they have to be in line of sight, 1/4 mile or less away, and out of the car. While it is faster, the have to lock in that speed, and it takes a few seconds.
I have evaded laser twice in Ohio. As soon as I heard that high pitched sound, I was on the brakes. The one time I slowed down too much and the cop decided to ruffle my feathers by pulling me over for going below the min speed.
Keep your eyes peeled, and you wont have a problem with Laser.

I think I am going to be upgrading to the Escort 9500ix. Amazing new features.

Firebird92 06-06-2009 11:49 PM

it is pretty nice but 500 bucks ..... damn i got my V1 for 300 new

Formulalt1 06-06-2009 11:51 PM

Does your V1 use GPS to alert you of hot spots or speed camera locations? and you can get them for closer to 300. Look at ebay and craigslist

Firebird92 06-07-2009 02:16 AM

hot spots nope or speed camera nope i don't need all that stuff i'm either speeding or racing it goes off i slow down and then be on my way. A little to much going on that could go wrong. What about places where you can't get the GPS signal mmm new doesn't always mean better

:rofl: stick to carbs. Less to go wrong. Technology is ever expanding and I use my Nav system all the time, I pretty much always get a signal unless I am in a basement and unless I am driving around in a basement I am pretty sure I will be able to pick up a signal. To each there own though, I am very happy you are so proud of your V1, they seem to have a loyal following and that means alot but I am very happy with Beltronic/Escort products and for the same price with more bells and whistles I will take the 9500ix.
