• Q: PLEASE HELP... Which one is the best radar/ laser detector: Valentine1 v1.8 or Beltronics STi Driver?
  A:In a perfect world, no one would ever make mistakes and we would never go over the speed limit. However, it's good to have a radar detector and/or laser jammer as a reminder to watch your speed as you're going down the highway. The Beltronics STi Driver is the best windshield-mounted radar detector in annual independent testing by Speed Measurement Labs and 1stRadarDetectors.com. The Bel STi Driver provides the best detection over the greatest distances with the least number of false alerts and 100% invisibility to police radar detector detectors. The Valentine One radar detector comes in a close second, with the following 3 radar detectors rounding out the top 5 radar detectors in the world: Escort Passport 9500i, Escort Passport 8500 X50, and Beltronics Pro RX65. See the source link for a comparison and links to all of these products. Speed Measurement Labs and 1stRadarDetectors.com just finished this year's testing in El Paso, Texas. The Bel STi Driver still provides the best performance, with the Valentine One in second place. If you are concerned about police laser (used more and more these days), your need a laser jammer, which jams the police laser gun, allowing you time to adjust your speed if necessary. Like radar detectors, laser jammers are also LEGAL in nearly every state. I use a Bel STi Driver combined with the Blinder M45 X-Treme Laser Jammer. I have never had a speeding ticket with these devices installed. (I had one speeding ticket before I installed these devices.) I have picked up dozens of radar signals and blocked several lasers. I keep both devices hidden in my sun visors, and that also keeps the Bel STi up high where it can pick up signals from further away.
• Q: beltronics sti driver or rx65?
  They are basically the same...but should I actually worry about cops detecting my rx65 because it's legal using radar detectors in my state or pay the extra $100 to be so called invisible?

  A:either or......
