Valentine One

I use the V1 and suction mounted high on the left side of the rear view mirror. Power is tapped into the sunroof power source.

Valentine 1....been using since 1996. I travel as a salesman and drive well over 50,000 miles a year. I've tried others but the V1 is THE one to have.

I bought the car two weeks ago and Last week I found out I have the integrated V1. Since I am in Taiwan I am not 100% sure it will detect the bands properly.

Wow that install is great, is there any way you can send me more pictures? How was this done? I really want a detector but I'm not willing to stick stuff to my windows this would definitely be something I'd do.

Valentine 1 and it has saved my skin 2 times in the last 3 weeks on laser gun traps! The cops were timing other cars near me and it gave me enough time to slow down enough not to get caught. My Valentine 1 has really worked for me.

I've only experienced V1 but I did alot of reseach before buying. That was eleven years ago.

Then, bought another one for the wife 9 years ago. They're very reliable units.

Absolutely no regrets here!

V1. Mounted on the upper windshield and installed by a/v shop, along with a remote display in the bin just in front of the shifter
Have a set of LI Dual waiting to be installed as well
Have been using V1 off and on for about 15 years...

V1 mounted just above the dash, hardwired into the fusebox. I also use a Bell STi Drive in my DD and for travel use.
