Does the radar detector i get mess up the Radar's(i mean the 1 the cop's have or the 1's that will be on the freeway)... or is it just that the radar lets me know that there's cop's around or radars around.

  1. actually thebest on the market is made by beltronics...

    sti driver

    and it is also invisible to be read by detector detectors....no rf emissions at all...

    not all detectors have jammers in them to answer your second question....


  2. To me the best bang for your bunch radar detector is the BEL 955, for $179 at RadarBusters.com. The BEL 955 is not the best but it is certainly up there with the top 3 radar detectors [Escort 8500 X50($300), BEL RX65 ($329.99), and Valentine 1($400)] I personally have a BEL Vector 995($270) and Valentine 1($400) and their is only a slight difference in detection range. I like both detectors equally due to their unique features.

    The BEST radar detector is relative to the features you like/need.....There are 5 radar detectors with equal performance in most respects and will save you tickets contrary to what some will tell you. The Top 5 radar detectors are (in no specific order) the:

    BEL RX65

    BEL STi

    Escort 8500 X50

    Escort 9500i

    Valentine 1

    I personally use the Valentine 1 as well as the BEL vector 995 both have saved me huge fines when dealing with police radar. But for dealing with Laser you really needs a laser jammer (illegal in some states) I use a Blinder M20 and Anti-Laser laser jammers on my Volvo along with LaserShield plate cover.

    For those that say a radar detector is just a ticket notifier obviously don't have experience with a top level detector. Ask any of my friends that ride in my car. My detectors both sniff out cops easily and give me plenty of time to slow down when usually going 10-15mph over the limit.

    For test results of pretty much all laser jammers and radar detectors....Check out these links:

    Radar detectors are only illegal in Virginia and Washington DC.

  3. The Valentine 1 is the best by far in all of the reviews.

  4. They are illegal in most states and a big ticket. I don't even look at them.
