| Valentine One V1 Radar Detector: V1, The Porsche of Radar Detectors rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author veilguy - Like the 911, the Valentine One has steadily improved over it's long 15 year history. But it's changes have come slowly and methodically. Fortunately for us, Valentine Research has resisted trendy fads that have made their way into lesser detectors (that have come and gone) and instead has stayed absolutely focused on consistently providing the highest levels of detection across all bands of RADAR and all forms of LIDAR. It is true that Valentine's competitors have managed to just about equal or exceed [in some cases] its RADAR detection performance, at times, but it has taken more than a decade to do so. Laser detection performance remains the platinum standard. One of the real strengths of the Valentine One is that it has virtually no weakness across any of it's reception abilities. RADAR sensitivity and signal ramp is the most consistent of any detector, past or present, regardless of the band. This enables you an intimate connection with the detector. Like the handling of the 911, it enables it's owner to feel "connected" to the road and to know exactly where one stands within it's limits. Of course, this is the only detector capable of taking the guess-work out by identifying and indicating the directional location of any radar or laser threat. This has been a unique ability for the V1 for more than a decade, now. The V1's superior police-laser reception ability makes this detector a perfect companion to the Veil anti-laser stealth coating. When you couple these abilities with lifetime upgradeability, you have a very compelling driving tool, indeed. The V1 may very well be the last radar detector you ever have to buy. More...  |
