Beep Beep... I use Radar Detectors in every vehicle and I have all brands... The most important thing I want to say about this one is... It does NOT have that ever annoying BEEP BEEP that penetrates through your skull that forces you to mute the thing and then you forget it went off and see the source of the detection!! IT HAS A PLEASANT TONE (as pleasant as a tone warning you about a speed trap can be...)!! And it even slowly fades quieter... Oh... I LOVE this detector! I plan on replacing all my others with this model! On a side note.. it is also much moer light weight than others.. so when you hit one of those front-end killing pot holes thatare all over our great nation, it will NOT fall dramatically from you windsheild mount and cause you to swerve throught the highway lane.... Cobra is the BEST I would purchase this Cobra again. I read all the reviews before buying and they were correct - great item. Once I learned the codes (exp: X) then I didn't panic. My hearing is going and like that it alerts me to emergency vehicles. of No Use I've bought the product after reading many reviews and was one of the recommended ones, but it just doesn't work. Calibrating the Compass was an easy thing as if you follow the instructions carefully it will be done in the first go. Mounting on the windshield and taking it off every time when you park in a public garage for safety reasons, it won't just come off the clamp it is provided with, so basically everything you need to remove the whole thing and put it back again is really painful. Now comes the actual part where it should warn the driver of any radars nearby and also when a laser gun is being pointed at you straight from a distance. It failed both the parts! No beeps for any radar even if the trooper's car is on the side of the highway. No beeps even if the laser gun is pointed straight at your car not even from 50meters. All it does is giving unwanted false alarms and that's it. The added feature, where it tells about the approaching emergency vehicle with the transponder on is also of no use and it gives the beep when the vehicle is right next to you.
