I'm sticking with my V1. Yes, the price is high but so is a 15-20 mph-over-the-limit- ticket(actually I got mine on Ebay under $250). Once you are used to the detector and its noises, it's VERY user friendly, and like the tests claim, it's one of the best in sensitivity, and I think that what counts the most. The V1 has picked up LEO's twice as far as my Cobra ever did! Ok now, Mike Valentine, I'll be expecting my checks soon, right?
"This year, the measurement of the radar and laser detection abilities of each of the over $200 units gives the Valentine One ($400) a small edge over the competing BEL Vector 995 ($260) and Escort Passport 8500 X50 ($300 with red display or $340 with a blue display) units."
