Great CHEAP Radar Detector!
I bought mine almost 3 years ago from another site for around $50, and it still works and works great! I leave it on and in the sun with no damage to it thus far. I get anywhere from a half mile to almost 2 miles radius with mine (I'm guessing that maybe I got one of the possible very few "highly-effective" rather than "defective" models, lol! Anyway, I lucked out!). If you're a first-time radar detector buyer(like myself) and not looking to spend much, I'd recommend trying this one out to determine if it "gets the job done" before investing in one of the super-duper $250 models that talks and has all the bells and whistles that you may not even need or want.

Radar/Laser Detector and Scrambler
I purchased this item for my partner for christmas and we believe that the scrambler doesn't work; because he drove by a drive smart speed detector and it registered the speed he was going. Finding this out now is a little to late.

You get what you pay for.
So far this detector only picks up false signals. Like they say, you get what you pay for.

Piece of garbage
The little box with a few lights arrived in good condition and on time which was the good bit. I fitted it in my car even though the lead is highly sprung and a bit short so it kept pulling out of the cigarette lighter hole especially when I went over bumps in the road. After pulling the lead tight and wrping it around the glove box door I managed to get enough slack on the wire to stop it pulling out and all was well. This weekend I went on a long journey and passed many stationary radars. At the first one the little box didnt give a peep but I still had hope as the radar might have been turned off. Passed another and another and still nothing. I got my wife to drive and tried removing the box from the mount and pointing it directly at the next radar incase my mounting was not right, still nothing. I tried using it in city mode because the piece of paper they laughingly refer to as instructions does not explain the difference between city and highway mode and still got nothing whatsoever. I reread the box and the 'instructions' to see if I was missing something but only found out how to stick the mount to the dash board and turn the thing on. I did notice that it said the box detects all types of radar gun, which could mean it only detects gun type radars and not the static boxes so I am waiting to see one of the mobile radars to test this but I'm not too hopefull. I will continue this review when I have tested this out but for static radars it is completely worthless which is why I refer to it as a box with little lights on it rather than a radar detector. TBC
I have had the box of lights for about 6 months now and have passed all manner of radars with it set up and plugged in pointing up the road. Not once has it done anything at all. I have tried it on city and highway mode as it does not explain what these actually are without any joy at all.
To sum up, this item is a rip off as far as I am concerned. I would like to have someone take it apart and see if there is anything inside it other than some LEDs and a buzzer.
If you are thinking of buying this piece of total garbage them take the $50 and give it to a poor person instead is my advice.

High quality - low price
You can't go wrong with this radar detector for the price. I used to see patrol vehicles ahead of time, but never knew if they were running radar. Now I can often "see" them before I actually spot them. It has saved me in a school zone when I didn't even realize I had entered the school zone(I was doing 30 in a 20), so I can honestly say it has paid for itself.
