Yeah, it's a wonderful product... It is the only one on the market that can track how many there are and where they are. It's also very very sensitive, which means more warning. That also means more false alarms, but the count/location really help you determine what's a false alarm or not if you use your head. It's also immune to some false alarms that will set off many other brands. Just the other night, I was on a roadtrip with several other cars and their detectors all went nuts with a real strong signal for quite a while. My V1 remained silent, so I told them not to worry about it, and we got through without a problem. I know it was a false alarm because last time I went through that spot, I had a Cobra ESD-9100 and it did exactly the same thing as their detectors did in the exact same spot.

The V1 also has 2 logic modes which go a step further with the false alarm resistance and in some cases can tell if signals are non-threatening. The city mode for the Cobra detector would do no more than silence X band signals unless they were full strength (in which case it would be too late). The V1 is also by far the best for picking up laser. People say that if your laser warning goes off, it's too late, but I've found that to be not true with the V1. 2 nights after I got my V1, the laser warning went off, I hit brakes, it went silent, then it went off again. It turns out that the first warning was when the car in front of me was hit and the second was my car. There was a car hidden in the darkness running a laser trap, and I saw him go after someone when I was on my way back.

It's definately the most advanced detector on the market, but it's not a license to be a jackass either.
