Sorry, but that SKU is no longer available as a Price Mistake of the Day

Available now for 24.95.

Mine came in today and it looks darn good. Bad thing is you have to calibrate the compass and to do that you have to drive your car around in circles a few times.

103 remaining in stock.

After you calibrate it, does the compass work well?

Yes, seems to be working well. Though I haven't tested it with a real compass yet.

I geuss you've had that detector for long enough to decide how you like it.

Got any tickets with it yet? I see it is back down to $19.95 again right now, 105 left in stock, looks to be free shipping on it.

Should I buy 2 of them, or have you had any problems with yours?

The range isn't very good. Tells you a cop is nearby when they are too nearby to slow down. My old uniden tells me in more than enough time. You need to hit the brakes as soon as it goes off basically. But no, no tickets.

The compass seems to work just fine.

The whistler one they have for 29 might be a better deal. Though all whistler ones I've had in the past were bad.

Maybe I'll skip it then, or just buy one.

Around here there are so many tailgaters if it went off that close it would be a choice of get a ticket or hit in the rear!

Don't speed much anyway, just got alot of cops along the 50 mile drive the wife makes for work each way.

Don't need the compass really, every one tells me where to go and how to get there anyway
