So I just went on Valentine website to find out the cost for a new Gen 2 upgrade. The message I got was "No UPGRADES are currently available for this modelDue to the ongoing chip shortage compounded...

Thanks for that info Roy. Question: Are there any good radar detectors that also have a speedometer on it?

My C100 went airborne and out the window of my truck after ALL the LEDs conked out. Never again. Zero support, other than "buy a new one". Fool me once, shame on you, etc.

where the heck have ya been dep?????????????????[/QUOTE]
Hi CM!!!!:) I been around. Just not posting on the forum. I need to send in my Valentine for an upgrade.

I've got the C100 and all the LEDs on it have gone out/defective. I e-mailed Cheetah in GB about getting it fixed and they said buy a new C150. Wow...guess they think us Americans are really made out...

I agree with this 100%. Never had a problem or regret with my V1. I have X turned off and everything else on.

Is the XRS-9990 a new unit or has it recently been discontinued? I looked on the Cobra website and it isn't listed and there are none for sale on E-Bay.:confused:

I've been thinking about getting either a "high end" Whistler or Cobra. I also watched the YouTube tests for the Whistler PRO-78SE and they were impressive. It's hard to make a decision about either...

Oops...never mind. I found the software :)

I looked all over the Cheetah website but couldn't find the updates for the C100. Is it no longer supported?

I'm done posting here... <snip>

MOD EDIT: Yes, you are. And so is Silverado12. If either of you post here again, you'll be banned.

Resume thread.

What version of the database?[/quote]

EA1A0920

I also tried to sign up again for e-mail alerts of the updates, but it kept rejecting the attempts to do so. Guess they don't do that any more....

Gotta ask the C50 owners that question
My updates are free. :)

Interesting. BTW...I did the update on my C100 today.

CM: Regular updates are a definite plus. But I don't want to pay for them, I'm a cheap SOB. :D I'll have to unhook my C100 and bring it in for an update tonight. Remember, I bought my C100 more for...

Good question. My only gripe with the C100 is the lack of info on updates. I signed up 3 times for e-mail notification of updates and never got ONE. I didn't even know there was a 0920. I am still...

I'll stick with my C100. I don't need a detector going off every 2 seconds for "possibles". This was the biggest gripe with the sensitivity of the V1 radar detector. I also like that I can integrate...

What's the difference? :confused:

Hey Dep. Good to see you back on the forum. I don't know about the Cheetah 100 as I have the c50. The latest database as far as I know is 0014. We need to set aside some time so we can meet in your...

I signed up for e-mail notifications but I never get them. What is the newest database for the C100?

Thanks

It's actually spelled Florida ;)[/quote]

I'm a bit confused. Is the C100 a legitimate replacement of a car speedometer or is it way off from my actual speed??? A 20% grade is fairly common in my...

I believe you. :)

That's if Obama approves the spending and the Russians don't shoot it down or Chinese don't pull our credit :p

No joke...in my town we have hills that steep and WORSE!!! If I had a bicycle I could ride all the way into town and NEVER do any pedalling!!!! I'd actually have to use the brake a lot because I...

I have heard from some folks that the accuracy of the speedometer on the C100 varies when you are going up or down a hill. Is this true? How much variation are we talking about? I have both mountains...
