my first radar detector

By chris from woodstock, il on 07/07/2009


Pros:

Easy To Mount, Clear Alert, Good Sensitivity

Describe Yourself:

Commuter

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

First time i've owned a radar detector. I was somewhat skeptical and did quite a bit of research online before deciding upon this model. It paid for itself last week by picking up a police car/radar gun and doing so from much farther away than I would have expected.

used once.... 1 ticket!

By Mikerad from Tampa Bay, Florida on 11/22/2008


Cons:

Inaccurate

Describe Yourself:

Occasional Daytripper

Pros:

No Warning

Best Uses:

City Driving

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Around town, at slower speeds, workes fine. Used it once on my first trip and got a ticket. It doesn't read or pick up anything if you are on any kind of hilly roads. I am very upset that this product was touted as having great distance coverage, but in reality, it didn't pick up the cop until I was on top of him and couldn't even hit my brakes. I would not reccomend this for anyone going on a long trip. Unless you are in the desert and the ground is totally flat.

Excellent detector

By David Verified Reviewer from Greensboro, NC on 10/26/2008


Describe Yourself:

Professional Sales, Practical, Road Warrior

Pros:

Good Sensitivity, Variable Setting Adjust, Neat Features Or Extras, Excellent Range, Clear Alert

Best Uses:

Highway Driving, Rural Driving, City Driving

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Works very well as I travel 4 states for my job and drive the majority of it. It has excellent sensitivity compared to my older Cobra. It gives better alerts and I love the adjustment levels that you can do to fine-tune it. The cops here don't play fair and I generally don't speed but it gives me piece of mind when they lay traps out along rural roads and the interstate to be aware. I drive 40K-50K + a year and have seen it all.

"The product works ...

By Raja A Verified Reviewer from Undisclosed on 10/27/2006

The product works extremly well. I am more than surprised at how accurately it can determine the radars in the area. Occassioanlly there will be a false alarm, but i don't mind as long as it gets the real stuff.

Description

Why Buy a Beltronics Detector? Performance! Beltronics is the industry leader in technology and innovation. Our all-new varactor-tuned microwave receiver delivers the longest possible warning on all radar bands. In fact, Vector 955 provides 8 times the sensitivity of any imported radar detector (Korea, Philippines, China, etc.), and it's made right here in North America. Faster Response Vector 955's lightning fast microprocessor can detect and process a signal in less than one second! This "attack time" is crucial against laser and instant-on radar. Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Beltronics' patented AutoScan feature continuously analyzes all incoming signals and automatically rejects unwanted false alarms. This gives you, the driver, the perfect balance of sensitivity and selectivity! New Level of Laser Protection Our Total Tracking Laser circuitry continually searches for laser guns. Maximum range, including superior off-axis protection, is standard. Easy-To-Use Options and Controls Vector 955 is simple to own and operate. Preset at the factory, Vector 955 is optimized for highway driving. Or, customize the Vector 955 to meet your specific driving style. The easy-to-use selectable options make it simple to change. Clear Digital Voice Alerts Easy to understand digital voice alerts let you keep your eyes on the road. Or program unique audio tones for X, K, Ka, Laser and SWS. Brightness Control with Full Dark Mode Vector 955 has four levels of brightness to choose from, including full dark mode for discreet night travel. VG2 Immunity Exclusive Shadow Technology keeps you unseen by Interceptor VG2 (radar detector detector). City Mode Filtering Choose from two levels of City mode filters, including Low X and No X for quiet operation in town. Mute and AutoMute Vector 955's AutoMute feature automatically reduces the volume level during an alert. Or, simply press the large top-mounted Mute button during an alert to instantly quiet the audio. High Definition Text Display Using a high-bright alphanumeric display, the Vector 955 is easy to read from any angle. Standard bar graph display provides band and relative signal strength for radar and laser signals. Comes Fully Equipped Vector 955 comes complete with a comprehensive owner's manual with quick reference card, quick-release windshield mount, and high-performance coiled power cord.
