This Cobra Radar detector is for those that dont need all those extra bells and whistles.  It offeres 360 radar detection for all around protection.  It does get some false readings but that you will find will come with almost any radar detector.  I find that there are not too many false readings that I get but when the time does come and it keeps beeping it offers a quick mute button on top to mute that alert.  The design is sleek and lightweight and the suction cup design is good.  I have not had any problems with the radar detector falling off my windshield at th...

I enjoy driving.  Like most drivers, I've sometimes found myself going a little bit faster than the posted speed limit.  And, on more than one of those occasions I've actually been pulled over and ticketed.  Now, I'm not going to pretend that I'm innocent and say that I've never exceeded the limit intentionally, but by far, the majority of the times that I've been pulled over it's been simply because my mind was focused on something else, and I just wasn't paying enough attention.  Since I drive alone most of the time, I decided that I wan...

There are two really good radar detectors out there: the Valentine One (and higher up models of it) and the best model Passport Escort.  Other than those (which are very expensive), you have to realize you are getting what you pay for.I got my Cobra knowing it wasn't the best radar detector out there, but it has served its purpose well.  It more or less serves as a reminder for me to watch my speed, but it has definitely paid for itself in that it has warned me of speed traps and police on a few occasions when I wouldn't have seen them otherwise or didn't realize how f...

When my husband used to travel three hours to come see me when we first met, he though he would try to save a little time and go a little faster then usual ( maybe 80 instead of 70 mph here in MI 70 is the speed limit ) so he bought himself what he thought was a great radar detector. The Cobra radar detector worked when it wanted to. One time while on his way down to see me, he noticed lights behind him and heard the dreaded sound of a cop car. He couldn't beleive it! The radar detector didn't even light up a little... ten minutes later a speeding ticket. So we thought maybe it was ...

I recently tried Bel RX65 at fry’s electronics because I was interested in watching radar. What makes the RX65 great; well the quality is what makes this great. It has a very clear LCD screen that is still visible in the light, and the audio alerts are very loud so you would be able to hear them a mile away. This radar device has excellent filtering capability, and the unit uses a RJ11 telephone jack for a power source, this is the first time I’ve seen this done with a electronic. In terms of quality I would rate the RX65 very highly; this is a great looking little device. I l...
