All I hear is that Valentine is the best of the best of the best. Would not know first hand, as VA and DC are, what I believe to be, the only two places in US where they are illegal.

Valentine !!.........You will never go back

Hey Boot, had a passport, gave it to my dad, I have a Valentine, much better and with the arrows you always know in which direction the radar is coming.:D It truely is a great detector.

Solo S2...battery operated...take it with in any vehicle no hassles

Thanks guys ! Is there a model of the valentine ?

Enticer, How long do the batteries last ? that would scare me ! It's like my little walky talkys , I'm always adding batteries just because I don't want to have them not working ! :rolleyes:

We'll see how the cobra is for now . I just needed something fast and didn't want to gamble on wasting 3-4 hundred bucks on some crap !

Thanks !;)

Boot, any car and driver, road and track or other auto mag has them advertised in there, Jeff

Valentine without a doubt. I have had most of the other top detectors and valentine is definitely worth the extra money. It has saved my butt many times. Also, I like the arrows, since I can tell whether they are behind me or in front.

valentine 1. there is no other. period. i have had one for over 6 years and i just keep getting it upgraded. my boss has had one for over 7 years and just keeps his upgraded. it never becomes obsolete.
