Really? Does it work? What can you tell me about it?
I'm thinking about getting one.

A couple of years ago, I'd have jumped on a deal this cheap. Not because I want to speed, but because I'm afraid the ONE FREAKING TIME I'm going too fast, it'll be the wrong place at the wrong time.

But now, I've got a GPS that gently beeps when I go over the speed limit (on highways, at least). That does all I need, since I really do want to obey the posted limit (even as everyone passes me and flips me the bird). So now that the radar detectors are ridiculously cheap... I don't need one any more.

Looks like a ticket detector to me.

this looks like something that has really good range... i wonder how far i'd be able to throw it

The day a cheap ass item brought woot to a stand still..

Somebody get this radar detector the hell away from me.

no mention of X and K bands, and the only help i can find there is an amazon review that says its supposed to.. but doesnt.

They know because they have radar detector, detectors. No, really.

come on guys! think how fast you can go with one of these! everybody should be in4one

"that is what she said"

Finally, a battery operated radar detector that I can use it while riding my bicycle.

Yeah - Golden Earring (Radar Love - 1973)

And I thought these thing were illegal in most states????

90% of all radar detectors are undetectable these days.

When the cop sees this thing he'll probably feel sorry for you and just give you a warning.... So it does work.

she is reported to have said that.

come on who buys these really? people are buying 3 waffles? they're fine ?

I'm putting off doing my homework in hopes of the bag. Let's get a move on here folks, nothing to look at.

haha... Yes!
Good catch.

The only thing this detector does is act as a glorified, hourly timer. After 1 hour the detector makes extremely loud noise (that scares you to death if you haven't been watching the clock) and then shuts itself off to preserve the batteries. Perhaps you have to mount it directly on the hood of your car to detect anything but, right now it's on the right side of my dashboard and fails to alert me even when I'm passing a patrol car on the side of the road in a speedtrap. The flashing green powerlight is soothing, but don't be lulled into a false sense of security with this detector or you'll end up with a speeding ticket, a heart attack from the hourly shut off alarm, or both

You can go to amazon and buy it for $59.99

I'd rather see a woot-off for something that sets off radar detectors. Then I can drive past all the people that quickly slow down.

Difficult to find very many reviews on this. Most of the buyers must not be able to access the internet from their jail cell.

afurball wrote:They know because they have radar detector, detectors. No, really.

And I note that there's a nonzero number of Virginia residents who bought it.

Wonder if the mighty wootlords will be sending the shipping data to VSP.

Is it just me, or have there been more dogs than usual in this Woot-off?

Can't you avoid traps with your phone these days?

Is this a trap? Is this woot going on past the end of day? Is this a two day woot? Can I call in sick tomorrow so I can woot all night and all day?

I need a sign from above... And please make it neon, because my eyes are droopy.

One star review...

If you install new batteries right now will they be drained by the time this little diddie sells out????

That would depend on who you call... Do you have the Sheriff's personal cell number... that would be helpful.

I checked out Amazon... there is only one rating... so it may be biased... but it states:

Bottom line, don't waste your time. This is a terrible radar detector. It detected X and K for the brief time I used it. Ran it along side my Valentine One. The V1 gave me anywhere from a 10 sec to 30 sec warning. The ST goes off only when you are w/in a hundred yards or so and the cops radar is at full blast. By then it's too late and you'll be paying a ticket.

It also only works with head on radar. I drove beside a cop w/my V1 going nuts and the ST was quiet as can be. The good news is that this detector doesn't false alarm. They achieve this by tuning the sensitivity down so low you miss out on true radar signals.

No. Just some states. Google it and it will tell you where you can and can't use them.

That said, I agree it's a sucky item. It's cheap but it's not worth it. Both of my brothers are with the State Police for a long time. Both have said, even the best radar detectors aren't working with the equipment they use currently. This one surely isn't going to help you unless you're in a pack of cars as you pass a cop running radar. Slow down and as Oprah says, don't text or talk on your phone while driving. I feel you can talk if hands free with a bluetooth in your ear or the cars system. No texting, lets save some lifes peeps.

Woot really wants me to go to sleep now. Ok, woot. You win. I'll go to bed.
