    my understanding was that the down side to the v1 was it didn't have the update capability for cameras that the 9500ci has. Honestly, I will have to look up and find out what the Cheetah is.
    Also, anyone around Atlanta have a recommendation for install?
    Thanks for all the great replies!

    true, not update abilities when it comes to cameras. however, the V1's arrows r one of a kind. No more lookin around for the radar source

    Cheetah manages the and runs the Trinity Database...Which is the one that the 9500ci uses. Cheetah is better as it is direction sensitive only alerting you to cameras that affect you

    Keep in mind you'll have to pay for the installation and many installers will charge an arm and a leg to install a zr4 on your...Most charge insane amount for rear install on your car

    if u do get ur laser jammers professionally installed, be to tell the installer to NOT mount them behind ANYTHING. lots of installers like to make the install as stealthy as possible by puttin the jammer heads behind the grille

    Exactly. While it is more expensive to run a Cheetah and a V1, instead of just a 9500, it is a much better solution, giving you much more functionality. Separate devices dedicated to separate solutions is just almost always a better approach than a single all-in-one device.

    Im just not really a fan of the V1... im more of a bel/escort man myself..... i would go with the 9500ix... and a dual LI.... but to help u gauge how some of these radars perform in a real world scenario... look for vids on here or on youtube...
