I get occasional false laser alarms also on my V1. The thing that irritates me more than that, is that I get strong false K band alarms from the traffic flow sensors on some freeways despite being in L mode. (I think it's worse during commute hours as other times when I drive through those same areas, I don't get the false alarms). I have an older model V1 that doesn't have the filter for that problem.
My V-1 is from 2005 and I have another one from 2006 or 2007.

So whatever sets off the laser alarm is something else and or the CHP when I see them out pointing laser gun at cars.
I wonder if V-1 has any kind of upgrades against the LED lights and or adaptive cruise control on other cars that maybe setting off the laser portion?

I see. I don't get any false alarms on KA band. When that goes off it is usually CHP or police.

I hope they come out with a new upgrade feature for the V1 to filter out the false laser alarms. That and the filter for the false K band alarms from the road sensors would be worth the $200 upgrade cost.

Yeah, I rarely get false alarms on KA band so when it goes off I pay attention as usually it's due to LEO activity.

Yeah, KA band detection is the most valuable for sure. I have X turned off and K "detuned" to not come on unless a strong signal for an extended amount of time. That filter usually works well except for the damn traffic sensors during commute hours on some freeways. I thought about turning K completely off also but I think the County Sheriff cars and local town cops still use it.
