Worth the money

I have had an Escort for the last 12+ years, but finally needed to replace it, and reached out to a friend who I know studies this stuff really hard before he buys something. He talked me into getting this one, even though I didn't want to spend the money for it, but I can see why he did. The distance this thing picks up, front, back, and even to the side is amazing. It has a ton of tuneable features, easy to get in operation, and tune. I highly recommend.

Best one I've had so far

So far it is an excellent detector. One small problem however and I get I'm likely a niche case there's no native support for Linux users. I get I can run a Windows virtual machine, I don't want to have to do that every time I need to update this detector. Windows is getting to close to being corporate malware with their push for AI and apple isn't any better. Bunch of us are picking up Linux as a result. Would absolutely give a five-star if I were able to update easier.
