Wow! $1300 for install. I can't see myself putting out that much money to jam cops.

as many have said V1 or 9500, if you dad likes simple things the v1 may be a little bit better

I use the V1, had one for the last 10 years, and they are great. Also using a laser shifter. But recently, this has caught my eye(seems to be "the next generation" in radar).

Yes, it's expensive. But if you want the best then.... you get the idea. Not for every one.

It's not a bad feature. Most radar users tend to look at where the signal is coming from and the V1 is the only one that allows you to do that.

I have an Escort SRX and I love it. I feel that a built in unit is the best way to go

radarking, we get it you like the v1. The test you keep referring to is almost 2 years old.

The 9500 ci and srx were not used in that comparison, the V1 has no laser jamming capabilities. Lets keep this open.

However, I do have 2 V1's and they have performed well.
