radar detectors !

LOOOOOOOL!!!! Do you even know what you are talking about with bands and such? Go search radar detector forums where people have tested most detectors fairly extensively, everyone knows Cobras are utter pieces of crap. You might as well save that $60 to pay the speeding ticket when your useless plastic paper weight fails to detect even a stationary constant-on. Next time do some research before you waste your money on a worthless detector.

Haha not really to be honest. Still don't understand where the hate for these are coming from? Mine alerts me long before I would ever see a cop so I don't see how these are crap. Yeah the ****ty cheap cobras probably suck but what makes you all think every cobra sucks and is a paper weight? It's been working for me and I don't have one single complaint.
Also you dont need to be able to detect 14 bands of radar.
Cops only use Ka, K and ku in europe and laser. The other bands are unless since its not used by law enforcement.
Do you really want your radar detector going off when ever someone opens there garage door?

i know, but instead of unclipping the invisicord wire and unhooking it from the windshield mount, i keep it plugged in to the cig lighter and just unhook the windshield clip and lay it on the ground out of sight... saves a few seconds

it is a mount that clamps to your Rear View mirror shaft, and holds your Radar detector Under the rear view mirror. NO suction cups on the windshield. It hides under the mirror, with my 20% tint you cant even tell its there, but if you wanna be safe, you slide it off the mirror mount just like you would the windshield mount. then unclip the cord... But there really is no point to have to unhook it.

Thanks for all the imput guys, i ordered a 9500ix and it came about a week ago, im loving it. saved me numerous times! They have an incentive right now on the Escort website, you get an 80 dollar rebate for sending in any radar detector. So the POS cobra is gone. The 9500ix's ability to store false allerts is awesome... after driving around my local area i never get falses, if it goes off, its a cop.

everyone has personal opinions on brands and models
no radar/laser detector is 100%
ive used V1, 8500x50 and the 9500 all of them have no chance if a cop is using instant on or laser.
I got pulled over the other day by a cop using instant on. I didnt see him at all and when I barley saw his lights my radar lit up "Ka 34.999"
If a cop leaves his radar on, then you have a much better chance, but again, not 100%
