Buyer's feedback: - * Good cheap Radar Detector / without the bells and whistles u never use ...
Ok, this is my 2nd "Cheap" (read below $50) radar detector. The earlier one was from Cobra (very good too). I'd planned to get the same model for my wife's car as well (she recently got a ticket :( ). But while browsing Amazon I came across this model, good / cheap / functional. What i liked was the "Blue" indicator lights (really cool at night) and the visual signal strength meter.

Both are very similar, however for $5 more the Whistler is a little bit more sensitive (both give u enough time to slow down). However the audible alerts on the Cobra are more pleasant... u know the tonal quality and stuff. The whistler audible alerts are very harsh... and if u live in a city zone like me.. that means constant irritating noise from the harmless radar doors, safety radars, etc...

Otherwise, the cobra is smaller (+1 point). Whistler has longer cord (+0.5)

Overall both are good and for under $50 each, I'd say get one of both yourself. Good investments against tickets / insurance rate hike...

Other than the audible alerts, I like the whistler better though :-)

Hope this helps.

Buyer's feedback: - * Good product ...
Best value of money.
warns you every time there is a cop with a gun!!
Though it keeps warning you very often which is annoying

Buyer's feedback: - Good for the price
Had it for a couple of months and am very happy with it. It has regularly picked up police radars long before I spot them, even behind hills (luckily I live in Florida so not many of those to contend with!). The laser detection is fair also. Compared it alongside a V1 and the difference is barely noticeable - the V1 beeps maybe a half second before the XTR did.

Some minor complaints: It gives out TONS of false alarms, especially when I'm driving around town - OK so it's a fun geeky thing to know when I'm half a mile from an automatic door, but still it drives my SO batty when she's in the car! The VG-2 detector appears to give a lot of false alarms (unless Florida law enforcement really do have them scattered every few miles, which I doubt) but it's disabled by default so no big deal. Finally, I would have liked either to see a separate Ka indicator or have it blink on K band detection instead.

Buyer's feedback: - * Whistler XTR-140 ...
Had a Whistler for years, replaced it with this one. Just as good if not better, why spend more? Do a lot of highway driving and never got a ticket. Gives a good honest warning within a mile or so. Just remember when you drive past a cop, they dont always have their gun on. So dont blame your detector. I really like the blue LED's they warn you visually when your radio is turned up. Overall i would recommend this to anyone on a budget or needing a unit for a second vehicle.
