According to most, they'll pay for themselves over and over again.

V1, probably saved me 6-7k by now I've had it so long. (and btw that is just from fast lane cruising at 80MPH and my trips out to the country on the motorcycle to rail corners)

I have a V1 but most of the time I still use my old Bel 980 and it works just as well.

I use the Whistler Pro-3450 remote mount detector. Much harder to steal, let alone have a cop see. The radar antennae is behind the front bumper and my display is below the dash. It also has a thermometer. Love the thing.
