Review on πŸ” Whistler CR73 High Performance Laser Radar Detector: 360Β° Protection, Bilingual Voice Alerts - Enhanced SEO, Black by Shedrick Roach

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great detector did I push it to the limit?

I was transferred from NC to Alaska and had to drive one of my two cars to get there, it was brutal but that's the way it worked. My configs: all tapes on KA are set to maxid, tfsr to , no pop. I drove at least 10, 20 at most in NC - nothing, VA - the cops rounded up every one of them in the corners and hills everywhere, I had to install it on the dash because it's illegal, it's a lot harder to see there, and it still worked fine. WV- means nothing Ohio cops didn't see - nothing Indianapolis - nothing Illinois - it was hot cops and traffic cams, cop state's first and only full X range, lasers too, but Chicago traffic was so busy that I can't imagine letting the cop chase someone without getting killed. Wisconsin - Decided to turn on pop mode, big mistake, it reduces range a lot, please use at your own risk, I don't know why they didn't stop me there. Minnesota - just show me where I drove past the cops and nothing worked. I don't know if they personally check for speeders and then turn on their radars as soon as you pass. They're all waiting in the middle, so keep your eyes peeled. North Dakota - A cop tries to hide at a gas station so open it gives Whistler incredible reach, FLY! The Montana cops use the old Texan technique where they all drive on the other side of the highway and pick up traffic passing them on the median, as soon as you pick up speed they overtake them, they turn 180 around the median and reach She . Your range will be reduced with this technique but even there you drive 70, the cop drives 70 the other way with 140 difference, you have to be quick here to stop as soon as cr90 warns you. Idaho - nothing, Washington - cops use lasers here and traffic cameras EVERYWHERE still drive by although most cops use ka. Lots of unmarked police cars so be careful Alaska - few cops in open area, many mountain cops can't hide. Canada - Speed limit was 55 for 400 miles when nothing went 70 and hit a cop walking past me. I say it was a great investment. for the price, just because you see a cop in the distance as the cr90 pulls away doesn't mean you have it, but i'm certainly a prime example. Make sure you mount it in the middle of the windshield and not low as this will reduce range. KA-ID is the best feature and also the choice of custom features. You have to be careful on the subway. Do not turn on the music or wear headphones/bluetooth to the point where you can no longer hear the system. You only have a second or two to stay alert.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Secret
