Beltronics Vector V955 Radar Detector

Beltronics Vector V955 Radar Detector Review



Beltronics Vector V955 Radar Detector Feature

  • Full X, K, SuperWide Ka, Ku and laser alert plus Safety Warning System message display in an easy-to-use laser/radar detector
  • New AutoScan mode intelligently reduces unwanted false alarms
  • Ultra-bright 280-LED alphanumeric display
  • Immune to VG-2 radar detector detection, so law enforcement cannot detect its use
  • One-year limited warranty

With the best radar performance under 0, drive safely and save money with the Vector 955. Includes features usually found on more expensive detectors: three brightness levels, VG-2 immunity, digital signal processing, sturdy windshield mount, and more. Now you don't have to choose between driving safely and saving money.

The perfect radar accessory for the economical driver. Click to enlarge.

Superior Detection
The Vector 955 includes full X, K, SuperWide Ka, and Safety Warning System radar capability, laser detection, patented Mute and AutoMute features, audible and visual band alerts, and all the performance you'd expect from Beltronics.

Digital signal processing (DSP) technology and multiple laser sensors give you long-range performance and greatly reduce the number of false alarms. On top of that, the Vector 955 is invisible to VG-2 radar detector detectors, keeping you one step ahead. It also features Highway/City sensitivity settings to tailor performance to your needs.

Easy to Use
The rugged Vector 955 gives you control right at your fingertips. Patented Mute and AutoMute technology allows you to quickly silence alerts. Advanced programming lets you customize several features, and all controls are easily accessible on top of the device.

Installation is also a snap: use the quick-release windshield mount to attach it to your vehicle's windshield, and remove it in a snap. Don't want to leave it in your vehicle? No problem, Beltronics includes a travel case to keep it secure while you're on foot.

AutoScan Mode
The V955's AutoScan mode provides long-range warning, with minimum false alarms. In this mode, the V955's internal computer continuously analyzes all incoming signals and intelligently filters out false alarms.

Includes coiled power cable.

Easily install with quick-release windshield mount.

Ultra-Bright LED Display
Don't miss a visual alert with the 955's 280-LED alphanumeric display. Exclusive threat display tracks and displays multiple radar signals, including signal strength. You can also view Safety Warning System (SWS) messages about upcoming hazards, construction, and more.

Enjoy three different brightness settings or operate in dark mode if you'd prefer only audio alerts.

Total Tracking Laser
Unlike radar signals, which are highly reflective, laser signals have very poor reflective characteristics. Many of today's laser detectors do not have the high sensitivity necessary to detect laser within a large "field of view." The Vector 955 incorporates Beltronics' best laser detection, which uses twin laser ports to detect energy far outside the main laser beam--including off-axis signals--providing a 360-degree field of view. The alerts provided by your unit are the same whether signals are received from the front or rear.

How Safety Radar Works
Safety Warning System, or SWS, uses a modified K-band radar signal to alert users of highway construction or maintenance, highway hazard zone advisories, weather-related hazards, travel information/convenience, and fast-/slow-moving vehicles. The SWS safety radar system has 64 possible messages (60 currently allocated), all of which can be displayed on your Vector 955.

What's in the Box
Beltronics V955 Vector radar/laser detector, coiled power cord, quick-release windshield mount, and owner's manual.

Whistler Pro-3450 Remote Installation Radar Detector

Whistler Pro-3450 Remote Installation Radar Detector Review



Whistler Pro-3450 Remote Installation Radar Detector Feature

  • 360º radar (X, K, Ka, superwide Ka) and laser detection
  • High-gain optical lens for increased laser sensitivity
  • Prioritizes incoming alerts if multiple alerts are received
  • VG-2 undetectable with alert
  • POP, pulse and instant-on detection
  • Full Featured Remote with POP Detection
  • Remote Installation - Installs out of sight
  • POPTM Mode Detection
  • Easy-to-Understand Real VoiceTM - Using the optional Voice Module
  • Three (3) City Modes
Amazon.com Product Description Enjoy total-band protection, with alerts for laser, radar, VG-2 and safety radar bands. Install your control panel 3 different ways and the blue text display will read accordingly. Competitive features like City/Highway modes, Quiet and Auto Quiet modes, or Whistler's own 'Stay Alert' help seal the deal, and you can even add voice alerts with the optional voice module.

Total band protection with the discretion of remote installation.

Directional display allows your control panel to be mounted 3 different ways and the text viewed correctly.

Compact, high-efficiency antenna receives radar signals.

High gain optical lens provides increased sensitivity and field of view for leading-edge laser detection.

Blue Text Display
The intense blue text display provides distinct visual confirmation of signals detected, signal strength, and indicates engaged modes of operation.

Directional Display
This allows your control panel to be mounted 3 different ways and the text viewed correctly.

Audio Alerts
Provides distinct audio warnings for X, K, Ka band radar, safety radar, laser and VG-2.

Remote Installation
The Pro-3450 features remotely installed detection modules routed to the control panel within the vehicle:

  • Radar Antenna--Compact, high-efficiency antenna receives radar signals.
  • Laser Module--High gain optical lens provides increased sensitivity and field of view for leading-edge laser detection.

In addition, you'll get outdoor temperature (handy to know when you need to watch for ice) and battery voltage displays.

Patented POP Mode Detection
There are new guns out there that operate just like the instant-on guns of the past but with a very tough new twist--POP mode! This new gun is a normal K and Ka band radar gun detectable by most radar detectors made in the past 30 years until it's in POP mode. When the gun is in POP Mode and activated, a brief burst of energy, less than 1/15 of a second, is transmitted and the vehicle's speed is quickly acquired. A detector without POP Mode detection capability cannot respond to this brief transmission. All PRO Series have POP mode detection capabilities.

Stay Alert
The Stay Alert feature is designed to test a driver's alertness. Within 30 to 60 seconds after the feature is engaged an alert is sounded; to show alertness, the driver must press the volume, city or the mute button within 3-5 seconds. If a button is pressed within 3-5 seconds, the cycle is repeated. If a button was not pressed within 3-5 seconds the unit alarms at full volume and the display shows an unique visual alert.

3 City Modes/Highway Mode
Highway mode provides full audio and visual warning of laser/radar systems while maintaining full sensitivity. Highway mode is the default setting of all Whistler's laser/radar detectors. City mode helps reduce the annoyance of automatic door openers and burglar alarm alerts by providing an initial alert (same distance as Highway Mode) then remaining quiet unless the signal strength becomes very strong. When the signal increases the unit will alert briefly to notify you of the change in signal strength.

Quiet/Auto Quiet Modes
Pressing QUIET before a signal is detected engages Auto Quiet Mode, which automatically reduces the audio level after the initial warning to a low audio level setting. Pressing QUIET during a radar/laser encounter silences audio alerts, while allowing visual alerts to keep you informed.

Valentine One Radar Detector

Valentine One Radar Detector Review



Valentine One Radar Detector Feature

  • X, K, Ka, and Super Wideband Ka Detection
  • 360° Protection against all types of Laser
  • Rear Radar Antenna
  • Ku Band Detection
  • Directional Indicator
The Valentine One is one of the highest performing radar detectors on the market. One reason for this is multiple radar antennas! The only other detector with two radar antennas is the Bel STi Driver, but in the STi both antennas face forward. In the Valentine One, there is one forward antenna and one rear-facing antenna. Using this combination of antennas, it effectively tells you the band and strength of the radar signal, along with the number of "bogeys," or radar units being detected. It will also tell you what direction the signal is coming from, and provide the best rear detection out of every other windshield-mounted detector on the market. Even when this sounds too good to be true, there's more. The Valentine One has excellent laser reception, consistently appearing at the top of tests in this category. In addition to the super high-performance of Valentine's detector, this model will never become obsolete. The very first Valentine detectors from 1992 look identical to the ones today, and can be sent in to Valentine to be updated with the latest hardware and software (charges may apply). If you decide on a Valentine One, you'll be in good hands with the same detector for the rest of your life.
