    This cobra gave me nothing but false alarms and endless beeping. I knew it was a piece of crap when I was driving through the country side and it kept saying K alert which means there's a radar gun pointed at you but I could literally see miles of wheat fields ahead with no police in sight. When I would actually pass a police car on the highway it was silent which lead to me getting a speeding ticket. I've bought Cheaper radars that did a better job and saved my butt. I only had it for a couple days before I returned it to pay for the ticket which was the reason I purchased it so I wouldn't get a ticket. The App is a lie when it tells you where the police have been spotted because we drove around to see if it was accurate, it was not. I bought it at the costly price because I believed cobras were the best. They suck and I will never buy this brand again.

    Purchased as gift Valentine’s Day for husband. Not sure if radar detector is becoming out dated due to new technologies. Has different readings. Seems to pick up ATM machines and gas stations. Does have different indicator for radar detectors, ka. Seems to work

    The K Band non-Police K Band alerts were annoying. I believe that a lot of these were from the newer car collision avoidance systems. I returned and bought a more expensive Cobra Dual Pro 360 which has very few false alerts and updatable firmware and software capabilities. It also has GPS, Bluetooth and other features. These extra features come at an additional $300 cost.
