Dude, no offense meant here, but if you are not going to buy the whole thing because of a $40 case, it seems a bit childish. She already authorized enough cash to buy the V1 and the display. That is...
Tell her the extra $50 for the case will protect the investment. If she doesn't buy that, just get the refurb unit and a remote display. Then ask for the case for Xmas. In the mean time, put the V1...
If the V1 was so finicky as to be susceptible to damage from that small power spike, I would be looking for another RD. Every piece of equipment designed for use in a vehicle (RD, radio, GPS, cell...
No, it will not damage it. the power being cut to it this way is no different than if you use the remote audio adapter to turn the V1 on/off.
When you initially start the V1 and it goes through it's opening ceremony of lights and sounds, does it ever display a "P"?
Well, technically speaking, the charge of "receiving stolen property" in MA is what's called a strict liability law. In other words, the Commonwealth does not have to prove you knew or intended to...
In MA, it is a felony to steal anything that is valued over $250.
It is also a felony to possess any stolen item valued over $250.
But, if no one is complaining, who's gonna care? I guess.
I don't know how much the shop is charging to do the mute switch for you, but again, that guy on ebay is selling the mute switches for $14 shipped and ready to go. It will probably be easier/faster...
The beauty of tracking numbers!! No one can BS and say they didn't receive it!!! You will have a new V1 befroe long. Between this thread and the other one, it seems as though Mrs. Valentine is...
You are correct that unclaimed items go up for auction after being held for a while at the PD. I am not sure exactly how long we hold it for, but I see the guys in the evidence room getting things...
All of this does not take away from the fact that it is a STOLEN V1. What if it was stolen 3 years ago... Maybe the original owner is in the military and moves frequently, would you be notifying VR...
There is some guy on ebay selling a plug and play switch for a few bucks. Save some time/money and pick one up from him.
I am glad to hear you got your V1 back, because you were in a bad situation having un-knowingly bought a stolen V1. I don't quite know how I feel about VR giving a reported stolen V1 back out. On the...
Do you have your V1 programed for the city? I drive by a huge mall and shopping area and never get any false alerts unless I am in A mode by accident.
Again, thanks for the kind words guys. If you guys can post pics of your units, please do because I am having trouble doing it. The problem may be where I am trying to host them, I don't know.
Thanks for the good words, Ace.
To clarify, The display that Ace pictures IS a lifespeed one. I do not drill my units out. I prefer to carefully remove the red coloring for a cleaner look. Ace...
Must be for belscorts. When I called originally to change the serial into my name, I had asked what the procedure was for repair/tune. They told me to just send it in packed good enough and write a...
When I first got the unit, I called VR and gave them the serial # and asked that they put me as the owner for that unit in case it ever got stolen or something. About a week later is when I sent it...
I swear by my 813 that I picked up this spring. When I got it, it was way out of tune and I sent it in with a letter asking that they do not flash the software at all. They fixed/tuned it for free...
Congrats! So, now you have one in each of your cars? Very convenient. I should do the same so I never go unprotected.
thanks!!
Hi, I am still doing the mods and am also the guy on ebay doing them (sireousrex ebay ID) so you can check my feedback. Prices are:
Brand new displays: $40
Band LEDs changed: $30
Signal LEDs...
Congrats!!! Welcome aboard!
same happened to me. I asked that they keep the 813 software intact and they tuned it for free along with free next day shipping back to me. I was EXTREMELY happy.
This may be a great set up for someone who gets alot of J outs...
Whenever you get a bad J, flick the high beams to reset the unit :lol:
