Radar detector?

Okay,I think it is time I finally get one. Just need some help, what is the best one out there? And what is the best "affordable" one (if you know what i mean)? lol.

I have had way too many close calls...

Bell/Escort/V1 are all worthless when it comes to laser.

Unless you want to skirt the law and try jamming laser, any warning from a detector will come too late.

you sound bitter


and

laser jammers work, and some setups are very stealth. If laser gets more used around these parts and I start driving more then 2 minuets to work, I'm going with a laser jammer setup for sure.
