New V1 - Serial # vs. Software Version

[The Stigs Cousin]

I just got my V1 today. I bought it from the V1 site as a returned unit for a small discount.

I saw the thread about the last 3 digits of the serial no. tell you what version you have. My last 3 numbers are 056. This doesn't match what was in the thread.

You don't need sound to check version. Ill give this to you in a nut shell..

1. turn V1 into off position
2.Hold the volume knob in, turn V1 on whild holding knob, continue holding till it lights up, let go of knob, if version numbers do not flash, push knob in as if you were to mute it 1 time. Then they will appear.

Thank you for that. I've seen that, and was planning on messing with it eventually. I am new to owning a RD, but have done months of research about them.

Got the version to show... 3.812

3.812 and 3.813 are supposed to be the best.

Sweet. Is it an older version then?

I've been trying to hardwire it in my 2009 Civic, using the hot wire that goes to the power sunroof. Went on the civic forum and no one seems to actually know which wire it is. I'd rather not go get a volt meter but I will if I don't find anything online soon. I've already tried tapping into 2 wires that I guess at based on what was said in the Civic forums. Oh well.

So far I've driven roughly 50 miles with it, mostly city. Saw 5 or 6 cops but weren't running radar (there was a sporting event they were tending to). I really want to run into tons of cops running radar so I see how this thing works (still keeping it slow like always for a while and till I get jammers).

I would just get a voltmeter. They are cheap (2.99 at harbor freight) and are really useful for tins of stuff.

thats what Ill do then, I thought they were at least $10 for some reason. I havent used one in forever, do I need to strip wires to get a reading (they all have rubber housing).
