Cobra XRS-9830

Overall a good impression of this product. It's well built and works well. Going through all the settings and disabling warnings for unwanted radar types takes some time. It was sent with all alerts enabled, which is a bit annoying as the alerts kept popping up almost every minute. With all the settings to fine tune the alert types for different radar types, this is very useful. Another feature is the ambulance alarm. He emits a special beep along with the display when he sees ambulances like…

Pros
  • Radar detector

  • Some small things

Great detector. or not

I bought this radar detector about 7 months ago and since then it has saved me at least 4 times from cops who had all turned off their roadside headlights (so you wouldn't see them until it is too late). This detector usually lets me know about 0.4-0.75 miles ahead of the radar signal (more likely 1000-1500 feet if the signal is blocked, i.e. the soldier is parked behind a concrete barricade). Overall I'd say it's worth the money as a speeding ticket in Pennsylvania costs around $200! Again…

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Only available in black

Good value for money

I have been using this radar detector for over a year now. This is the best detector in this price range. Be sure to read the instructions completely as some lanes need to be activated in city mode. Once I started using it every day, I quickly realized where the false positives were. Blushing warnings are the ones to watch out for. The laser warning went off a couple of times (the alarm will actually get your attention) but with the laser you're probably in an accident once you get the signal…

Pros
  • Car electronics accessory
Cons
  • Very expensive
