What's great about it: Accuracy of detecting all radar/laser types.
This is the most accurate device I have had to date. My hubby is in law enforcement and we were able to test this unit against his radar. Passed every test we could think of! This will save anyone money versus a ticket and points!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Great price, easy to mod bands, easy to use, 100% reliable right out of the box!
What's not so great: Hardwired kit not included.
100% High end quality. Very easy to enter program mode, allows you to turn off bands such as the annoying useless X band. Standard settings: city, highway, and auto. Auto has amazing range, on a straight road it would detect Ka band at a distance of more than 1.5 miles away. This would give you time to zip on your coffee and then slow down. I never got any false Ka or laser signal. This is not my first radar, so when this alert me I know its accurate, compare to the one I used to have, I've got a ticket. This is definitely worth the money, you'll never have to buy another.
Recommend this to be hardwired. The standard smart power cord is great and everything but its just silly to have cord hanging in front of you which then becomes more of a distraction. If you have experiences, cost me $6 to make my own hardwired kit with fuse. It has a useful feature that display your car's voltage.
I would recommend this to a friend!
