I believe that the tests on some internet sites may be biased. I remember hearing that the site asks for payment from manufacturers, and Valentine refused to pay them.
I wondered when this FUD would pop up.

I guess Escort must have paid off Motortrends, BackRoads, Speedzones, Forbes.com, etc etc..

And Bell paid off RadarBusters.com as well....

That must be why Valentine1.com don't reference any 3rd party testing to show how superior their product is over the competition.

They didn't want to pay anyone to say their product was the best...that must be it.

Why else would they have no links to independent testing of their V1?

That sounds perfect, can you post pics? Perhaps the best of all worlds...
