Thread: *SOLD* Any interest in a Valentine 1 radar detector?

  1. #1

    Default *SOLD* Any interest in a Valentine 1 radar detector?

    I have a used radar detector in excelent working condition and great shape. will come with a case for it. has springy short cord or a long cord if you want to hide the wire behind your pillars for a nicer install. also comes with instruction book. this is version 1.7, serial number is 0839020488 if you want to go to the website and check yourself.

    I would like $250 for it

    This is a good deal on a great radar detector. I already have one but someone really needs to jump on this.

    Exactly the same one.

    V1 Description: Radar circuitry known in-house as V1.7 gives high performance on all radar bands. Also,it remembers your “mode” setting when shut off. Has stack of four LEDs on front panel for band identification. Front and rear laser.
    Upgrade Recommendation: While this version is not quite up to today’s V1 standard for Ka, it’s almost always good enough, and always better than detectors from other makers. X and K performance is excellent. Upgrading merely to improve radar performance is not cost effective, in my opinion, unless you’re concerned about the POP Mode operating in your area. Upgrading does bring other benefits, including our latest laser warning (front and rear), which outperforms the competitors by a wide margin, and POP Protection. Also, you'll get the new Euro Mode.
    ...and across the line.

    If you mean the concealed display, yes. I have the same detector.

    Quite happy with 1.7 myself... The added features in 1.8 aren't good for much other than letting you know you're busted. It's all a matter of what you want.
    Maybe 4 wheels aren't so bad after all... wickett.org

    Probably... but it's a tradeoff of false alarms vs. how many departments in North Texas use POP...

    You might ask the guys at Cop Stuff in Howe. They install the radio and light bar equipment for quite a few of the departments.

    Don't mean to make less of your V1, I've been in a couple of cars with them & they kicked the hell out of anything I've ever owned.

    If I was just a bit richer, I'd buy yours in a heartbeat.

    I've got this exact radar, Version 1.7 and every option. This is hands down, the best radar I've ever found and used.

    This is a great deal. I bought mine last year for $325 on ebay. Don't pass this up.
