I did plenty of research and ended up with the V1. I seriously considered the 8500 X50 for $300 at the local Best Buy, but then they salesguy said I'd have to buy a "hardwire adapter harness" separately in order to hardwire it. The harness was $50 or so he said. So I went with the Valentine 1 (it has everything included, even down to spare suction cups). Had it in two days for reasonable 2nd day air shipping $.
I'll say the arrows and signal counter are VERY NICE features. It's nice to know where the signal is coming from. Got blasted this morning by a cop car running Ka. As I passed him the arrows showed him passing by.
