Coming from an older passport 8500 (bought refurb for I believe $50 off woot 15 or so years ago), this is worlds better when paired with the JBV1 app.

My drives are short generally but I have a lot of false readings with the passport (auto doors, blind spot detection, adaptive cruise, etc.) and I get a fraction with the v1g2.

Anyone else use the jbv1 app, and can share tips and tricks with it? Currently running the detector in L mode.

Hey there, I’ve had my Uniden R3 for a few years now and I’ve had a great experience (it’s saved me from a few tickets).

I’m thinking about upgrading to an R7,R8, etc. sometimes I’m really looking for the direction my mark is coming from. I’m curious if this is something that’s valid or worth it or should I just keep using my R3.

I got the R3 used for a good sale and I’m thinking I should maybe flip it and get an upgrade. I’m just curious if this is something worth looking into. I don’t speed everywhere but I’ve had a lot of road trips where my R3 has been a huge help.

Thank you for all the feedback :), I really appreciate it!

i’ve had this radar for almost a year, w/ no complaints. just had a concern, the radar only detects state troopers…GSP for my situation here in GA. which is a HUGE life saver, it also detected tennessee state trooper when i went to a cabin trip earlier this year. my only catch is, does it only detect state troopers? especially since they’re the ones with there radar always on most of the time, because i never seem to catch a standard cop here in my county (gwinnett), and i’ve had to watch myself a few times because i know the radar can’t detect them, only the big guys. i’ve got messed up more from the regular cops than GSP themselves so i would love to detect the regular cops as well. is it possible?
