I'm a big fan of the Stalker DSR. Great at catching speeders.

Well, it depends.

Do the traffic enforcement officers in your area use radar or do they use laser?

If they use radar only, then I highly recommend the Valentine 1. Sure, it's expensive, but it's a solid detector.

However, if they predominantly use laser, then you're better off just saving your money and never speeding. Not a single detector out there will give you enough warning to slow down before you get popped by laser.

Most people opt to go with laser jammers in those instances, but that can potentially be against the law in your area, so you will definitely want to check on that first.

Redline with the new BS/RDR update will trump the V1 for now.

Laser Jammers are illegal in MN.

Shit, you know better around Fort Wayne! Anything under 8 over is legal unless it's in a zone less than 45 MPH! When's the last time you were heading down Coldwater and traffic wasn't flowing 50+ haha.
