Arrow FS: Valentine One Radar Detector

FOR SALE:

Valentine 1 Radar Detector. I've had it for a few years and it is in perfect condition. I have the owners manual, windshield mount and a cable. According to the Valentine website, it is version v1.7. See below.

Asking Price lowered to $225

Please email scwalter@gmail.com if you have any questions.


Status Report on Your Valentine One

Serial Number 5964280501

V1 Description: Radar circuitry known in-house as V1.7 gives high performance on all radar bands. Also,it remembers your “mode” setting when shut off. Has stack of four LEDs on front panel for band identification. Front and rear laser.
Upgrade Recommendation: While this version is not quite up to today’s V1 standard for Ka, it’s almost always good enough, and always better than detectors from other makers. X and K performance is excellent. Upgrading merely to improve radar performance is not cost effective, in my opinion, unless you’re concerned about the POP Mode operating in your area. Upgrading does bring other benefits, including our latest laser warning (front and rear), which outperforms the competitors by a wide margin, and POP Protection. Also, you'll get the new Euro Mode.

Alex only if you want their latest and greatest software. 1.7 works just fine no need for 1.8

I thought refurbs were $350+s/h, not including the hidden unit.

And back on topic, I had a 1.7 and it worked extraordinarily well. Possibly better than my 1.8.
