A looooot of false alerts
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is good when it's a true alert but there are a lot of false alerts that comes with it. I have an escort x80 in a different car and passing by the same road this cobra is a bit jumpy. On the bright side the volt meter is on the spot for me. I wish I can return/replace it.

Posted .To reduce false alerts, use Medium or Low SEN modes. If you are using the iRadar app with RAD 480i, use Auto SEN mode which will automatically change the SEN mode based on your speed.

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great radar for the price. Having a app to pair along with the device makes easy to lock out false alerts or bands you do not want to be alerted. Only downside is the detection range, but still enough to save you
