    This detector has gone off more for regular cars than for police. There have been times where I have saw the cop pointing his laser my way and it still hasn't gone off. That being said, somehow it works when I need it to, I'm just glad I didn't need it any other time.

    I would like for someone at best buy to take that other name off of my account before my credit is ruined. I believe the other name is Erick he used to have that number before i bought my phone at best buy and you gave it to me. I'm getting correspondence related to his name on that number and its not good correspondence that might affect my credit rating. I've all ready contacted best buy headquarters with no satisfaction by email. Take that name off!!!!
