Answer 2

The BEST radar detector is relative to the features you like/need.....There are 4 radar detectors with equal performance in most repects and will save you tickets contrary to what some will tell you. The Top 4 radar detectors are(in no specific order) the:
BEL RX65
BEL STi
Escort 8500 X50
Valentine 1

I personally use the Valentine 1 as well as the BEL vector 995 both have saved me huge fines when dealing with police radar. But for dealing with Laser you really need a laser jammer(illegal in some states) I use a Blinder M20 and Anti-Laser laser jammers on my volvo along with VEIL stealth coating and LaserShield plate cover.

For those that say a radar detector is just a ticket notifier obviously don't have experience with a top level detector. Ask any of my friends that ride in my car. My detectors both sniff out cops easily and give me plenty of time to slow down when usually going 10-15mph over the limit.

To me the best bang for your buch radar detector is the BEL 895, for $200 at Radio Shack. The BEL 895 is not the best but it is certainly up there with the top 3 radar detectors[Escort 8500 X50($300), BEL RX65($329.99), and Valentine 1($400)] I personally have a BEL Vector 995($270) and Valentine 1($400) and their is only a slight difference in detection range. I like both detectors equally due to their unique features.

Answer 3

Valentine One.

This is the only one that will show you multiple radars and the directions that they are coming from. That can save you a ticket when there's one after another out there. Very Handy.
