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...
