    I personally like the Valentine because it tells you which direction the radar is coming from. That's a very important feature.

      Rocky Mountain Radar is supposed to scramble radar and laser. Badass car bro, very jealous of you.

            Unless it scrambles the laser, it's useless. You have to realize that by the time the thing tells you that you've been hit, it's over. Lasers aren't like radar, they are more direct and more LE use laser than radar these days. Your car can detect radar even if it's pointing at a car way ahead of you because of how the frequency travels, but with a laser, once it hits you, they know the speed before you can even hit the brakes. You must get one that scrambles, that way it sends back such a ridiculous reading that they have to do it again. By then, you've slowed down enough, hopefully. lol

              True to a point. There is a device out today that when the laser is used it reads --- on the gun for a full 10 seconds and locks up the gun. It also beeps warning you that it just averted a laser attack so you know to slow down. I personally would get both a radar detector and a laser jammer like that!

                Valentine1 hands down. I own one and would not want anything else.

                It has saved my ass plenty of times.
