I don't own one, but I just made a drive from Michigan to Florida and back
to pick up a race car and had a borrowed Valentine One for the trip. I
found it to be excellent. The directional arrows really make the signals
mean something. Once we got accustomed to the detector's various noises
and lights, we knew what was going on just about every time it piped
up. If money weren't so tight right now, I'd buy one today.
