Cobra 480-i
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love having a great Radar detector for my car again. I was having trouble finding a detector that worked with one of my cars and this Cobra solved that problem. I haven't learned all the functions yet, but the more I learn the more I enjoy it.

Everything I need in a radar detector at a great $
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Using the cigarette lighter makes install a breeze. I'll hardwire it in the future but for those that don't, work install and setup is easy. Added benefit of Bluetooth connect-ability gives you an extra edge on the police. Definitely recommend!

Cobra radar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picks up everything. Loud and no way to silence it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Cedar Electronics Team
Posted .To reduce false alerts, try using Medium or Low SEN modes. To change the SEN mode, repeatedly press the SEN button until you reach the desired mode.

Will Save You From Speeding Past The Grocery Store
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This doesn't seem to pick up actual police radar/laser/etc. However, it works great if you want to be warned about the grocery store you're approaching. I've passed local and state police while they were parked and on the highway coming towards me, and this has yet to pick up anything. I guess they all could have had their radar turned off but not likely. I've checked several times to make sure the detector is set to “on” for each type of radar, very disappointed.

Posted .There are several things we can check to ensure your detector is working as expected. Please contact us for assistance at 800-543-1608, option 3 on the menu for Cobra. Thank you.
