And not sure about dated technology. The bogey counter and arrows are still much better than almost any other detector in delivering usable warnings, and they roll changes into the V1 as they go along so no planned obsolescence like most others.

It may look dated compared to some, but inside, it's up to date.

Enjoy the remote dash mount on the steering column, hidden laser shifters/jammers (front and rear), and tiny green/red led mounted on my rear view mirror wire cover.

Expensive, but a good ebayer can get it for cost.

2nd, I think having the arrows makes the V1 the best choice

What happened to the woman putting on her jeans. Far better than this

I get more value out of my Blinder laser jammer. Radar use is limited in CT and MA.

I recently purchased a 9500 and it took the place of my V1. 9500 is superior.

IMO, V1 is relying too much on its name and notoriety. They are not keeping up.

And in the end, I'd rather be more accurate than know which direction a signal is coming from.

Respectfully disagree. I love the rear-camel-toe angle.

I have a Passport 6800 and a V1. Granted, the Passport is older, but the V1 is far more sensitive, especially on the K and Ka bands. The laser is TOO sensitive as some SUV's high mounted tail lights will trigger it. I personally think the arrows are a great feature as they let me know if I passed the signal (as in a sign or officer going the other way). I would buy another one in a minute, but it is expensive. Like most things, you do get what you pay for. I have been using radar detectors since I learned to drive over 20 years ago, and the V1 is the best I have ever used, period.

I don't think Passport offers that.
