Valentine1 Upgrade (09/03) is hypersensitive, gimme back my old one!

Date of Review:  Nov 11, 2003
The Bottom Line: fantastic directional arrows, rear protection, excellent quality, best for sensitivity and range but falses too much for me. hopefully, customer service refunds my upgrade price and returns old unit.
Review: before any valentine loyalists browbeat me, i have owned a v1 since 1997, and it has saved me numerous times. in 2001, it helped me drive from chicago to LA in 28 hours straight with an overall average of 74mph. breaks were only for gas, food,...

The best 400 dollars you will ever spend.

Date of Review:  May 25, 2003
The Bottom Line: Buy it...Use it...Love it. The most bang for your buck, and the best radar detector money can buy.
Review: Let me start by saying this thing has paid for itself many times over. I am by no means that guy you see blowing past at ridiculous speeds, but I often find myself doing 10 to 20 miles an hour over the speed limit. I live in Colorado and do a lot of...

Best radar detector on the market

Date of Review:  Jun 11, 2006
Review: Once you have the arrows you'll wonder how you ever did without them. Valentine One is the only detector with two radar antennas -- one front and one rear -- to scan all around your car and precisely locate each radar threat. You'll always know...

One of the best products I ever bought

Date of Review:  Sep 23, 2000
Review: I've owned a V1 for about 3 years now. It is an amazing product that delivers on every single advertising promise. Yes, it was far more expensive than every other detector, but it was well worth it. First of all, the radar locater feature puts it in...

Life with my Valentine...

Date of Review:  Feb 26, 2005
The Bottom Line: Lots of fun to use. Know where the "enemy" is hiding even if they aren't looking for you. Kind of like participating in a real life video game.
Review: You were ALL so helpful to me when I was shopping for a radar detector that I am happy to provide my input so that it may help someone else. After careful study, I purchased the Valentine 1 (V1) in January 2005 and have been using it for over 1...

Good but has a serious flaw

Date of Review:  Aug 25, 2003
The Bottom Line: Tech-heads should get it. For those who simply want their radar detector to go 'beep' when a cop is near, get the passport 8500.
Review: I've been using radar detectors since the original escort, and recently upgraded to the V1. I won't waste your time rehashing all the points that have been made ad-nauseum in the other reviews. I will say that the V-1 is solidly built, will likely...

Valentine 1 - Simply The Best Choice Available To Ferret Out Police Radar

Date of Review:  Aug 20, 2001
The Bottom Line: The best detector available to protect you from all radar threats!
Review: I travel on business extensively in the three state area of California, Nevada, and Arizona. Since traffic citations are a major Cash Cow for all states and municipalities, the authorities use every means at their disposal to catch offenders. We...

Latest software is a step backward

Date of Review:  Mar 15, 2003
The Bottom Line: Hopefully V1 will correct their problem with the next software release, but until then it still beats the Passport 8500.
Review: I have had my detector for several years and with one previous software update. I also gave my son an early version. In 2002 I decided to update to the smaller version of the V1. I went from what was very close to an ideal detector, to a detector...

I love my Valentine

Date of Review:  Mar 18, 2007
Review: I purchased my V-1 a couple of years ago after I got my last ticket. I travel the southeast in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Arkansas. Last year, I drove over 30,000 miles with my V-1 at my side.

In Mississippi: Sheriffs are not allowed to...

Great detector, but not my choice. ***NOW UPDATED***

Date of Review:  May 6, 2004
The Bottom Line: One of the best detectors available. A little pricey, but provides adequate protection.
Review: To start, I'll admit that I DO NOT OWN THE V-1. I had extensive opportunity to compare it with my (now old) Passport 8500. I got my passport in December 2003 and I went on "comparison test" with my good friend. I wrote about the test (as a comment...
