Whether you commute to work or school on the freeway, drive for a living, or just like to go on an occasional recreational trip, the Cobra XRS-9430 Radar/Laser Detector is an invaluable addition to your motor vehicle. Designed for the convenience of 24-hour use, the XRS-9430 has an extra bright digital display that can be dimmed for nighttime driving. Measuring 4.40 x 2.70 x 1.30 inches and weighing just 5.15 ounces, the XRS-9430 can be set just about anywhere within easy view when you're driving, and then stored in your glove compartment when you're parked. The XRS-9430 detects six different radar signals, including the Ku wavelength band that is widely used in Europe and that has been recently approved for use in the United States. In addition, the XRS-9430 is completely invisible to the VG-2 and Spectre radar detector detectors while it alerts you if either the VG-2 or the Spectre is in use in your area. The XRS-9430 is also sensitive to four different laser signals, and with its LaserEye feature giving you a 360-degree detection range, you'll always be able to tell if you're driving through a surveillance area. And perhaps most importantly, for your own safety and the safety of other drivers sharing the road with you, the XRS-9430 detects two emergency alert systems to give you advance warning of road hazards, keeping you prepared when emergency vehicles are nearby. In addition to detecting the Safety alert system, the XRS-9430, like most of Cobra's Radar/Laser detectors, offers Cobra's exclusive feature of detecting the presence of the Strobe alert system, which emergency crews use to control traffic signals. So get the Cobra XRS-9430 Radar/Laser Detector for your car or truck, and you'll be prepared for just about anything when you're behind the wheel. Note: Radar detectors can be used without restriction in well over 40 states, but restrictions apply in a few states. Please check with your state department of motor vehicles or highway patrol if you have questions about whether there are restrictions in your area. What's in the Box XRS 9430 radar/laser detector, windshield bracket, coiled power cord, hook and loop fasteners, and owner's manual. Equipped with 12 bands for monitoring radar and laser detection, the Cobra XRS 9430 is an ideal solution for anyone who spends much of his or her time on the highway. The device scans the X, K, Ka Superwide, and Ku radar bands--which covers the bands used by most radar guns--while also keeping an eye out for VG2 and Spectre 1 appliances, which officers use to locate drivers with radar detectors. Thanks to this latter technology, the XRS 9430 is virtually invisible on the road. The device also offers a 360-degree LaserEye function, which detects LTI 20-20, Ultra Lyte, ProLaser, and ProLaser III signals coming from any direction. And to top it off, the XRS 9430 comes with both Safety Alert, which scans for emergency vehicles and road hazards so drivers can avoid traffic snarls, and Strobe Alert, which looks for ambulances and fire trucks using traffic-light-controlling strobes. The Safety and Strobe Alert functions let drivers avoid accident scenes and other perilous situations, so the only traffic they'll face is during rush hour. Many radar detectors sound false alarms when traveling through dense urban areas, which is why the XRS 9430 includes both city and highway modes. The city mode filters out weak X-band signals--often set off by automatic garage door openers or burglar alarms--thus reducing the likelihood of a false reading. The highway mode, meanwhile, operates at full capacity. The XRS 9430 also includes an UltraBright data display, which helps drivers easily recognize the band detected via a series of matching icons, and Voice Alert, which audibly announces the band. Additional features include IntelliMute relative speed sensing; a digital signal strength meter that measures the proximity of a radar or laser gun; an AutoMute function that instinctively mutes the alert tone for convenience; a dimming mode that lowers the display brightness (ideal for night driving); an electronic memory function that preserves the settings indefinitely even after losing power; and a system-ready prompt that notifies the user when the radar detector has completed its self-test. The XRS 9430, which measures 2.7 by 1.3 by 4.4 inches (W x H x D), is protected by a one-year warranty against defects.

Does the job!!!!! Any one looking for a good radar detector, here it is. Of course I could have spent $500-1,000 on a better radar/laser detector or system, but who wants to do that?? It does it's job and everything I expected it to do! I traveled out of state during the holidays (holidays=many cops) and it saved my butt 3 times on the way there, and 2 times on the way back. It already has paid for itself and then some! Not to mention the two times it saved me this morning on my way to work! The only thing I was worried about when purchasing a detector was, would it give me enough time to slow down, the answer is YES. By the time I brake to the desired speed limit, I look around for a few seconds, then when I think it is a false alarm, there's the cop. Overall, great purchase and worth every cent! B A This thing is awsome, i have had warnings long in advance to seeing a cop. This is handy fella. good product this radar/laser detector is very good detects the police radar and the best is do not false signals
