Did you ask if they used radar or Laser? Do you know what they use in your area? If it was laser, your 9500ix will be hard pressed to alert or save you. A good set of jammers (LI's, etc) would...

Your 8500 is a good unit. Does it have the S7 or M4 horn? The S7 is more sensitive to heat and may require more frequent tune up's but many prefer the S7 over the M4.

If you are looking at a...

Since you are driving in a state that RD's are illegal, I would choose the Redline or STi. V1 is a great choice for other locations. I would want confirmation that BS/RDR is coming to the STi before...

I would get the new or used RX65. The buy back program is good or go with the factory referb, that is a real bargain. Your unit is showing wear from years of use, I would want the entire unit...

^^^this ia the ideal set up. The Plus is the best radar detector that you can buy. If this is not in your budget and you need to buy a window unit, the v1 would be my first choice and Redline would...

Arrows and bogy counter are awesome.

^^X2

Are you really looking for the cheapest detector or a very good deal. How about the RX65. It retails for 299 but you can get a discount on it. That is one heck of a unit for the money. I would...

Since traffic drones are used in your area, I would want to buy new. V1 is my first choice, if that is too much, I would go with the Black. Sorry we don't have a less expensive option.

It's coming out TODAY!
BTW - Nice car

9500ix is good for the city. Redline and live would be a great combo. Redline is great for the highway.

It you don't have traffic drones in your area, my vote is a referb RX 65. Laser is a whole other discussion. Start with radar than move to laser. You can't get good laser and radar detection for...

I agree, great value!

Welcome to the forum.
The V1 is an excellent choice in a window mount unit based on your driving area. If you want a remote unit, I would recommend the STi Plus. The Plus is the top detector on...

It appears that K band is more sensitive than was on 3.872. Jury is still out on Ka sensitivity....but it is at least as good as it was on 3.872. Hard to say for sure since we all have different...

Great performance from the V1. Not every LEO is running radar all of the time. You will see LEO's without an alert if their radar is not on.

Is the license plate still in the way if the antenna is mounted low in the intake area (mounted on the bottom instead of hanging from the top)? Ideally the license plate will not be in front of the...

I'm with you, no cutting....

I would not put the detector in a location that is prone to damage. My Plus is mounted in the Green area (1 inch back) and performs very well. The problem with the...

Mount it on the drivers side. This is closest to the center of the entire road and will help it see around corners. Mount high is better than low, ideally close to the front of the car but a few...

I've got HUGE Burgers on the grill and some cold ones in the frig and in my hand.

That is a great price for a remote unit.
Best of luck!

Agreed, there is a debate on these two detectors. It's really spitting hairs and based on preference. They are both great.

The V1 is a well rounded detector. It has good sensitivity, excellent response, can be programmed to be quiet, and gives excellent situational awareness. It also has a concealed display. I would...

The Black version has a better lens than the silver version. The Black version now has the same lens as the 9500ix.

Updating is a bit of a tricky subject.

Currently, the V1 must be sent in for software and hardware updates. The good news is that Valentine will upgrade any of their units, no matter how old...
