Re: Radar detectors

Basically $150 trademe one's won't have as good range as V1's and Bel's. Also cheap trademe ones will give false alarms all the time. Although some people prefer this.

Re: Radar detectors

Look at the bottom of this thread... there are about 50 billion links (slight exaggeration). Have a read.

Wrong forum btw. ICE/Electronics kthx.. did you not think this was an electronics related thread?
