Little upset, stupid suction cups gave and my V1 dropped. My baby only recieved a hairline 1/4 inch scratch on the front radar cover. I have to say, the V1 seems to be pretty durable and solid. Anybody else have horror stories about dropping their V1? Thanks!

there is also something about the 3rd brake light (i believe) on the new chevy trailblazers that occasionally set off my V1s laser....

My guess is that it's the vertical lines in the reflector. I think they tend to polarize the light, which makes the V1 think the light is collimated. That, and the frequency must be pretty close to that of Lidar.
