   First, this thing is smaller than I expected, which is good, but not a fully-equipped radar detector. It is a GPS enabled camera and red light camera system pressure. It can also tell you the date, time, speed and warns you if a user has selected the speed überschritten.Wie small is it? Smaller than a pack of cards. However, the screen is big and bright enough. It is based on their voice, the voice is a bit subdued, but you can rotate out loud. It comes with two options to install, affix a magnet is a sticky at the top of the dashboard, the other an easily removable rubber pad which rests upon it. I tried this, expecting flights to Whistler on a steep, but it was made even when knocking Geschwindigkeiten.Zurück bumps on the road to feature, if you want to do something for the cameras to these puppies will keep your work and be smaller than most radar detectors. But is this really something anyone wants? I think you’d better have everything in a radar detector with GPS and radar warning. I’m not sure if this is a market for this Gerät.Das, it works as advertised, was easy to install and easy to use. Is this something you use to go ahead. Rating: 5 / 5

   The device compares the location of your database on a red light and speed camera alert you when a possible solution. This is not a radar or laser detector. Sounds good, but in practice this device is fully unzureichend.1. For ~ $ 70 on Amazon, you can use a TomTom ONE, which not only instructions, but also a database of red light camera. This unit has $ 140 half of the double feature for Preis.2. The database is not updated. Through San Rafael (CA), it solves every few minutes, often without crossing Kameras.3. You will receive a warning when approaching a camera, whether it be on the same street or not. For example, if you’re on the road by car and there is a camera to a side road, it triggers an alarm – the TomTom warns you if you expect a camera physically delivered werden.4. The design and the surface is like a revival of the 1970s or a digital clock. There is nothing on the intuitive controls and menu system, you need the manual at hand any time you have something like ändern.5. He calls all who tell a speed camera, and insists on the belt, lay the unfortunate subjects. There are only a handful of radars in California (mostly around LA) .6. The software update is not as smooth as the PC integration TomTom. These have a minor problem, but also shows the technological gap between the two, I would not buy Geräten.Insgesamt this gadget – it has a radar detector component in any value you’ve built. If you intend to run, often red lights, would it be better to buy a TomTom and a separate radar / laser detector. Rating: 1 / 5

   So what you need to know in advance – it’s just a red light / speed camera alert service. This is not a radar or laser detector. It has a database of points of interest which it considers red light cameras /. If the internal GPS tells you approach one of the points of interest, he warns. This is not a “detector” because there’s nothing to see in the area to help you assess whether there is something that has not already in its database. Therefore, this product is only as good as the database is loaded. You can update the database via the Internet and you can manually add cameras do you know a button on the product, as you found the camera that is so important übergeben.Ich funktioniert.Ein Note that the database you need a program update, download comes with the camera on one of these CD-ROM mini. My computer will not play the file, but I’m sure others would. (My computer has a CD-ROM vertical.) I would lay flat on my computer to do. I could download what I need directly from their site. I think you have updated database free for one year. After that, I have no idea how much I cost to subscribe to updates. I do not need the database is still not updated. It took each of the cameras I know on my way to view arbeit.de reminds me of a clock radio that I had in 1982. There is nothing fancy here. One problem is that whenever the device powers said a British female voice: “Hello fasten seatbelts Active Unit” is boring and can not be disabled werden.Ein big plus is that the GPS receiver is also fairly strong to work when the device is inside the armrest of my convertible. There is no reason it should sit on my dashboard, and I can hear the alerts from my armrest. I only wish there was a way to power up Nachricht.Die clock can be set for DST, but I do not really care because I’m not with her, like a clock. I’m not use to measure my speed. My car can be returned with a dafür.Insgesamt line means what it should do, but it’s a bit pointless “properties” and it should start a way to disable welcome – it nicht.Das manual found at dot whistlergroup com.PS. The edge cushion slip not work at all for me. My dashboard has been sauber.Änderung: I now have the opportunity to make some updates. It really proceudre prehistoric but it only works if you follow the instructions. The customer service is absolutely incredible. I proposed a new function (the ability to disable the tower to the seller) and I received an e-mail almost immediately, include the work of a real person on a firmware update to this improvement. Five stars for customer service. Rating: 4 / 5

   I have been using GPS navigation products for a number of years, and I always thought it would be nice if the software in a GPS-camera sites had traffic loaded into it. Whistler used the same idea on a stand-alone device that you know, when you approach the speed / red light camera cross your GPS position with him, we are creating the internal list of known traffic cameras. It is worth noting that, because it works this way, it is not really a “sensor”. The device is much smaller than I thought it would think that a good thing, I have proved. It resembles a typical radar detector, but it is about half as large. The magnet is not what I expected, which was to mount a welcome surprise. Instead of using a magnet over the device to make it to your dashboard (which of course does not fit into most cars of the work), the magnet is permanantly your dashboard, and the detector itself is magnetically attached to the solid support. It is very easy to take the detector on the dashboard and outside, but is also a magnet strong enough to keep it permanently mounted in place. The plastic bit to the USB port on the side panel does not seem to sit still, he falls a few seconds after turning in, I’ll probably just rip it off because it does not serve much sowieso.Da detector Authorities said that whenever you hear your seatbelt – a feature that unfortunately can not be disabled. The unit starts searching for a GPS signal, which seems to find it much faster than most other GPS devices. When I turned on the detector for the first time, he got a GPS lock within 15 seconds. Then lock erreicht.Standardmäßig GPS was generally less than 10 seconds, the detector when the vehicle is not moved. It automatically downloads the time from the GPS satellites. I do not know if it determines where the time zone based on GPS, but I was automatically on Pacific Time, which is in my case. However, it is obviously not the parameters of the DST, so I had a “trick” the unit to display the correct time by the Zeitzone.Es mountain has several functions other than time and tells you your speed, but no they seem particularly useful. The top of the warning time is just annoying. The overspeed warning is just as annoying. The top speed can be useful if you are a racing driver. The meter can be useful if it is broken in your car. . . The PC software supplied on the CD is extremely easy. It’s basically just a big button that says “Update Device.” I was hoping you could scan the database or watch locations on a map or something, but it does not move the Fall.Nun unit to the actual performance: There are no cameras in my area, but I would pose this detector works the same speed for both cameras and red light cameras. I tested the drive home with you on a track that I know has 4 cameras at red lights along the road. There is little warning before approaching an intersection, and it seems remote reading is very accurate. However, the basis for data seems terribly outdated. Of the 4 cameras I’ve come to warn the device, two of them with me. In addition, the device warned me another 2 passages cameras, two cameras, over, but it is clear that in the past (I could see the poles, they are mounted). I really hope they provide a major update to the database bald.Pros: Great, with all the traffic cameras in my area work , pretty blue lights flash faster and faster as you approach the camera position of the camera can record manually places not in the database based radar warning functions perfektCons: No time to cover shipping AnpassungUSB do not stay in place, the PC is pretty low free update is unlimited and it can not be reduced after 1 year werden. terribly outdated database-No way to remove “cameras out there that the base Data is more vorhanden. display are very cheap, they should have opted for something more modern.

   The Whistler RLC-100 Red Light / radar detector comes with one year of free updates. After one year if you want to continue the update there an annual fee, but I could not speak on the website of Whistler. I finally called their 800 number to find that the fee is $ 95 for the 19th year. Sounds pretty expensive for such limited information. Rating: 2 / 5
