Well I guess if people want to spend $700 more to not clutter up 1% of their windscreen.. thats their choice.. I'd still buy 2 V1s instead

Why pay $700 more for essentially the same thing, and lose portability?

Yep V1 is the way to go for W.A

Unbelievable... this must be first time in history Australia has got something better than you guys.. well when it comes to electronic gadgets at least...

So let me get this straight... the STI-R is available in Australia... but not in the States? And you can't even order one of the bel website??

A freind of mine is thinking about using the GPS mirror to hook up his sti in his bumper

Hey guys, Ive done some searching but came up with nothing. Im sure there are people out there who have put there detector in some sort of weather proof container and mounted in their grill or bumper...

Wow I never knew Canada was officially a part of North America... i guess I always just associated North America with the USA...

im really lost as to the purpose of this thread and what people are angry about, but i know for a fact that Ive had a defective X50 used in different cars that has given crazy laser false alerts for...

lol could be

I was talking to a guy today with an BMW M5, and he said that it came fitted with a remote detector and laser jammer that performed well against the multanova.. meaning it has to be decent.. but he...

Oh ok, no worries dude, thanks for your help thus far

If it only plugged into the audio port on the belscorts, how would the mirror get info about what band it was picking up? Wouldn't the output signal only contain info on which sound to produce?

how does it plug into the V1 then?

Do you plug your detector into some sort of interface that then converts the alerts from the rd into a wireless signal that the mirror than picks up? Does that interface also power the rd?

I've looked on the bottom of my unit, and in the manual, but I can't find where it actually says its made... anyone know?

Even if it did mostly just cut into the Sti market, surely it would be still be worth it for the small proportion of rd buyers who know about the advantages of narrow ka against the multanova, and...

Can anyone speculate as to the chances of Escort releasing a software revision with narrow Ka? I've tested it against the multanova and it did worse than the X50.. alot worse. It seems like it would...

Ah ok that makes sense thanks

Why do you disconnect the negative from the battery and not the positive? What if you accidentally short a circuit and provide an alternate route to the ground, couldn't you blow a fuse that way?
...

Maybe, but why would you sacrafice the clear best performer right here and now for something that might be better on something that might or might not come out several years down the track..

Why is it bound to happen? They've already got hand held laser guns working just fine and there in-car radar units on K band doing the same. Why would they replace them just for the sake of it


...

That aint gonna happen. They've already blocked the bill trying to ban them twice in 90s, and it hasnt been mentioned since 2005 when they said they were gonna do it, but it never even went to...

Being in Perth aswell, and having used all top end detectors including Sti and the Valentine 1, I can without a doubt say the V1 is clearly better on detection of the Multanova, which is the main...
