Looking for something that will work really good like a Valentine One or higher end device, though the cheap the better.

 

dont you have another thread about radar detectors or was i seeing ****?

 

I had a thread for suggestions on what to buy

9500ix- 400 bucks

i want that redline : )

 

What type is that? Better than a Valentine One for that much?

 

i think its better then the valentine. its also got gps and auto learn which the valentine does not.

Best radar detector reviews from the world's most respected authority.

 

i got the Valentine One.. **** is beast mode! lol
but isnt for sale sorry haha

 

That's what I think I want, just have to find a good deal on one hopefully.

 

only thing i dont like on the valentine is if you driving the interstate it picks up the dumbest **** in the town's your driving throu. but hey i guess rather be safe then sorry.

 

oh and also im not sure how much reasearch you have been doing on the valentines but if you find a good deal on one, get the serial off the back from the person and go to the valentine website and check what version it is. you might have to get it updated which then might make that sweet deal turn into crap. depending on what version the valentine is programmed to you might have to pay 200 just to get the newest version on it.

 

is the valentine worth the money?

 

if your a speeder then yes it is.
if you maybe speed once a week then it probably isnt.

ive had my ss/tc for 6 months now and every day i speed around and to this day "knock on wood" i havnt gotten a ticket.

so for me IMO id say deff. worth the 400

 

YES.

Protip: Call Valentine Research up directly and ask for an open box unit (Many people buy them for a long trip, then return them afterward). It'll be $350 instead of the usual $400.

I have an Escort Solo S2 (wireless) for $225 shipped. Pm me

 

I was just thinking about buying one of those because my whistler has had it

How good does that thing actually pick up?

 

How well does it work? I've read the cordless ones don't work quite as good

 

not sure if your looking to meet with someone to buy one or get it shipped but heres a pretty cheap on in CT i think that is only 290 and it comes with all the wire and the concealed display.

Valentine One + Concealed Display

hope this will help you out.

 

That's quite a ways from me, shot an email to see if they were interested in shipping. Good deal though, thanks for the info.

 

no problem bud just trying to help.

 

When buying a used V1, always run the serial through Valentine before buying!

 

wireless will not be as good if you are looking for performance because they are only 2 AA battery powered.

i think escort 9500ix, escort redline, or V1 are the detectors you are looking for

I have the 9500ix and it has been excellent. very good performance and very live-able because it filters out false signal so well

 

They agreed to ship it for me for free. Bought a Valentine One.

 

sick man! good luck with it!
so ill give you my paypal account and you can hook me up for getting you such a good deal? haha just kidding bro.
