    Default Which radar Detector to use in Europe

    Whats up Guys!
    I have had many radar detectors before and liked most of them,i currently have the Bel RX65 and love it.However i know it wont work in Europe/SWITZERLAND.
    I currently reside in Los Angeles.

    can anyone tell me which radar detectors will work in SWITZERLAND,and what frequencies and Bands they use?I definitely need one that will be able to g into hidden mode,so that i don't get caught with it.

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    I currently own the Vector 995 M4 Platform, and I know it has the Ku Band feature for European driving. Don't know how good the range is considering I live in the states.

    I would go for the V1.

    The V1 is one of the few detectors which is capable to detect the "Traffic Observer" (laser measuring device).

    K-Band, Ka-Band (low powered Multanova 6F) and Laser. "Section Control" is coming soon.

    There are no RDDs in Switzerland.

    I would suggest getting an undetectable Radar Detector. They are illegal in most of Europe and one can cross a border easily. I accidentally crossed the border from Italy into Switzerland with realizing it just a few months ago.
    So - I would suggest a Sti / Redline etc.

    I live in Europe and I'm a V1 user. Even if radar detectors are illegal in most Europe, I've never seen a RDD and I travel a lot. Just hide your RD and you'll be fine. LEO will not try to detect your RD but look for it. Eye detection

    Use a remote detector where the detectors are not legal. STI and redline are still visible in the middle of the windshield. A cop will notice the detector.
    RX65E and 8500X50E are good against low power photo radar.

    A V1 with concealed display and visor mount is virtually impossible to spot by LEO. Also, if you choose V1, don't use it in Euro mode. Send me a PM and I'll tell you the settings you should use in Europe.
