They look at the gun, look up at the car, look at the gun - too late - you're past. Oh well, here comes the next guy...

That's been my experience anyway. I think as long as you're not obviously going 3 times the speed limit, they give you the benefit of the doubt. Jammers are not that popular but errors are so I don't think they give it that much thought.

 

I like my V1, although I rarely use it because I don't do that much speeding. It's perfect for the country drives (vacation road trips!) where I am not familiar with the territory and also enjoy going faster than the PSL. Definitely has saved me at least once and has alerted me to policy presence many times.

I had a mount hard-wired by the passenger vanity mirror, along with the concealed display behind my shifter between the two seat heater rockers. It's not a perfect placement, but those who pull me over definitely can not see either when standing at the driver or passenger side windows (a plus imo).

I bought the hard case for the V-1 and keep the unit in my trunk when it's not vacation time.

 

This is a very old thread but my answer has not changed! V1

I would also suggest some type of lidar jammer if they use that in your area...

 

I've been lurking here....and thanks to everyone's feedback just ordered a V1.

 

+ 1!

 

Enjoy your laser ticket.

 

I have had 2 different built in models Calibre K40 and one Valentine One.

K40 I had in my E55 was terrrbile. K40 built into my Turbo works well, however the Valentine One works way better. It gives warning earlier, less false alerts, and arrows

 

Valentine 1 by far!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Have had a Valentine for 10 years and they have a great upgrade program. Hardwired all my cars for a nice clean look. Once you live with the arrows it's hard to not have them.

 

I bought the V1 3 weeks ago. The bogie counter has been going crazy and the thing has beeped non-stop for 3 weeks. The good news is I haven't been speeding (it's always alarming) but it hasn't IDed a cop yet.

I think I'm hosed by city driving. I'm sure it rocks on HWY.

I'm returning it and getting a Passport 9500ci installed for $1899. I think I need the GPS. The invisible install is a huge bonus; I'm tired of hiding the V1.

 

Over on radardetector.net you will be banned for even discussing the K40. If you don't live in VA or a surrounding state I'd go with a V1 and Laser Interceptor without a front license plate. Those along with keeping a watchful eye should protect you from getting any tickets. If you live around VA substitute the Bel Sti Driver for the V1.

 

I have the V1 and it does work well. Stay with a name brand and you can not go wrong.

 

v1~~~~

 

I have been running the V1 for over 3 years with great success, I did all my research on that site, my next car I will install laser jammers to work with the V1...

 

saw a show on the speed channel that the jammers do not work.
