Do not buy into all the shit extras that they might offer, such as a compass, VG-2 blocking (only useful in Virginia where detectors are ILLEGAL), emergency warning. Those things are fucking useless. I have the 2nd cheapest Cobra and it works fine but sometimes the safety thing goes off and there is no firetruck/ambulance in sight. And when one cruises by, nothing.
The Cobra has saved my ass several times, mostly at night on highways.
They are not as useful in the day because you can see the cop most of the time.
I have been saved at least 8 times with it so it has mroe than paid for itself with NO TICKETS!!!
Was pulled over though with it but the cop let me off even though he saw the detector....maybe my lucky day or something.
I was thinking about the V1 but it just so goddamn expensive, the Cobra was $85 bucks.
