I love it, but let me pick at a few small details... First of all, let me state for the record that regardless of how my statements may appear, I really stick-by my final decision in purchasing this Bel STI unit. In fact, I rated it 5 stars. With everyone else gushing about how great the STI is, I never really saw a review try to pick it apart, no matter how small the detail or the minor annoyance. I wanted to find the things that I wished were different, or could have been done a little better, and express them here to possibly help someone else<...

best detector. this is the best detector bar none. completely spectre immune and ships with 2 smartcords for hardwire and 12V lighter socket. remember to check your firmware and make sure it is at least a4m9 or later using the procedure outlined in the radardetector net forums. very happy with my purchase.
only problem is beltronics wont honor their warranty if you buy from amazon! you should get this direct from beltronics if you want a warranty.

Wow! A changed from a Valentine One to this, and I am speechless. Makes Valentine One look like a child's toy. This detector, detects EVERYTHING! Completely remarkable! Recommended over anything! You can't go wrong!

Safe speed-undetected This product is invaluable in allowing me to drive safely all over! It is very responsive in doing its job and keeping me 'alert' to my surroundings.

Very good investment I used to own Rx65. Upgrade to STi is worth it, even with the higher price tag.
Compared to Rx65, there are no false laser alerts. And although laser is often considered to be deadly, on a highway in Ohio it gave me a warning that there is a laser alert around the corner before I could be spotted by the police officer.
K and Ka bands work very well too. Around the corner, across the hill and so on.
POP is off by default factory settings and if switched off, seems to give false P...

Saved again last night - I love my Bel STi Driver Ive had this detector for a year now. It is a lifesaver. Again last night, it saved me from a California Highway Robber sitting in a roadside shadow at night with all his lights off (dangerous!) but his Ka radar on, hunting those of us coming home from honest jobs.
I was going 10 over traffic, which prolly means 20 over the govt signage. Perfectly safe, do it twice a day every day. Granted you dont get much warning with Ka guns having such a tight spread, but Ive trained myself to...

Another Useful Tool... I have found there are lots of speed traps where I live. I generally observe the speed limits but the hills sometimes cause speed to creep up. This unit helps keep me honest and avoid getting tickets. It gives ample advance warning and enough time to check and correct any speed errors.
Very robust construction, "dark mode" feature prevents display from becoming a beacon to other drivers who want to tailgate you thinking you will save them from a ticket (Not to mention attracting ...
