Always had good warnings with the Passport line

Valentines are also good but never liked the way they looked

You might want to look into an "in-dash" installed unit - they are very nice

Aaron, I'am a radar detector whore, have tried and tested everything..

Valentine1 is excellent and is about 400 USD, problem is, they are in huge demand, I have had my window smashed and my car searched for it because they saw the clips on my window when i was parked.(i hid my radar detector, and sure enough they found it)

Nothing can really detect lasers until its too late.. The only other good one is the passport, its like 350 USD i believe..

Dont get roped into the crazy shit where they install the sensors in your car like K40 (thats about 2500) and still doesnt work any better then the valentine 1 or passport.

I have Valentine 1 and escort passport. The escort passport is slightly better but the Valentine 1 shows you which direction the radar is in taking the guessing away.

wedouglas · 06-30-2005, 11:02 AM

what is the point of these things? dont they go off after its too late?

Pretty nice, but what color is your car? that shit matters too

i think jammers are actually illegal as opposed to detectors.

Valentine1 it is. Thanks for all the input.

Good choice aaron

Mike Valentine developed the technology for Escort and Passport radars and then went off to start his own company. Definitely a great choice.
