    Thumbs up Cobra Vedetta Radar Detectors

    Cobra's website has their new detectors listed! They look pretty awesome. I can't wait to see them in action. Also seen a video on You Tube. It looks pretty good! Any comments?

    I don't think the screen on that thing will alert LEOs behind you that you're running a radar detector and to play/hit you with I/O, no sir not at all, especially at night.

    I've kept my 9960 high mounted in front of my visor on two cars now and it has yet to get any interest from LEOs. I'll be interested to see if the range is actually "30%" better. My 9960g's always seemed comparable to my v955.

    If the range is improved 30% from the flagship models then it would be competitive in a lower price bracket. I'm certain that these will be able to be had for a lower price than what is offered on their website soon enough. I have the 9960G and have found it to be a competent radar detector for the 150-200 price bracket.

    Tisk Tisk Roy........you know how this goes, being a marketing guy yourself. You slam the competition for their set of frivolous features, while at the same time, promoting your favorite brands which have their own set of frivolous non-value add features.

    How long did Escort/Beltronics have Ku band detection on their products and still a POP feature (Ka only) that makes the detector totally false happy and unuseable? BTW.......you STILL have those erroneous test results of the Bel/Escorts detecting 16ms K-Band POP (an impossibility since they don't have K-Band POP detection) on your website.

    Why not throw your benefactors at Bel/Escort under the bus, while you're at it, for still having SWS on many of their new products? How much is that used here in the US (or anywhere in the world for that matter)?

    Of course the real issue is how well does this new Cobra detect radar? We'll dispense with the smear tactics and deal with actual performance characteristics and test results shortly.
