I'm going to watch those other videos. My Pro-78 absolutely OWNS 34.7. That video was probably a 2-mile or so alert. I've had 3.9.

Watched all three vids, and I gotta say, the 695 is pretty impressive. I wish I'd been able to see the display to see it display frequencies, but it handled even the very difficult 35.5 pretty nicely. Obviously not as sensitive as the two $400 detectors Veil Guy had in the car with him, but still did very well.

Yes, I think the 695 is worth the wait and the extra money. Just not if you ALREADY have a Pro-78 and are me.

Nah, hold tight on the 695. I think it'll be worth it. I wish I could tell the frequency of one particular false I keep getting...695 would be nice right now.
