Anyways, I personally use a V1. Best detector I've had... plus the magnesium case is durable, having survived a roll-over while sitting on the windshield. I mount mine up high, hardwired.

mine survived a roll over too

Well... there are a few issues with the scorpion:

1) Since 1997, if you get caught with it, that is a federal felony ($10K/1yr)
2) Pain the ass to keep calibrated.
3) Easy to detect as most newer guns will indicate that it is being jammed (RFI)
4) Difficult to obtain, since you cannot legally purchase it.

decent idea, but most people dont look at the radar when it goes off, i know what it is by the sound it makes. i think thats why they make different sounds.

but still i wouldnt mind a christmas tree radar

Haha, I know. My gf is against the idea, but (ironically) she speeds more than I do. I've just decided that I want to be more careful when I do speed.

Right now I have a cable running from my cigarette lighter. I'll hardwire it this weekend if I have time. It'll be in the same place as that pic on the first page. That seems to be the only good place for it.

Yeah, but getting out of speeding tickets is much easier for her.
