Bel 995 has POOR photo radar detection!

Date of Review:  Sep 12, 2006
The Bottom Line: Avoid by all means! Your eyes will detect a photo radar van before this! Look for BEL 980 via EBAY auction. My next try will be a valentine one.
Review: My name is Brad, and I have owned radar detectors since the early 80's, and have always read up on all the tests, and experienced how they work from my own perspective.

Back in 1987, photo radar was introduced in Paradise Valley (a...

ROAD TESTED

Date of Review:  Sep 11, 2007
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a good reasonably priced detector I would definitely recommend this model.
Review: Ok. I had read many reviews on radar detectors before buying the Beltronics Vector 955. I found that this detector was the most bang for the buck. If you are looking for a detector that will keep the average intelligent person from getting a traffic...

Great detector

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2005
The Bottom Line: I would not hesitate recommending potential buyers to purchase this unit. It will save you the expense of tickets and the higher insurance premiums that go along with them.
Review: The absolute best detector I have owned. I have had this for over a year without getting a ticket. 2 nights ago the 995 started going crazy. Ka, Pop and laser. I thought it was developing a problem until I came upon a deputy sheriff cruiser and van...

Good range... but WAY too many false alarms

Date of Review:  Aug 10, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you're on a tight budget, go for a Vector 985 - older generation, but great detection and filtering. Otherwise, try the RX65, Escort 8500X50... stay away from the 995!
Review: My previous radar detector was a Beltronics Vector 985. The 985 had become one of those 'industry standards', and most reviews will tell you that you cannot go wrong with that unit.
Well I decided to upgrade, and give the Vector 995 a try...

Works just fine so far

Date of Review:  Sep 30, 2004
The Bottom Line: if you can live with the occasional false (just like any other detector) This unit provides Wonderfull radar detection capabilities.
Review: new update this should help sort out the people who actualy used the detector and those who just talk I emailed radartest.com and here is the responce-

I found your site to be very informative and useful. I made a mistake...

Feeling Comfortable

Date of Review:  Apr 12, 2008
The Bottom Line: Try it out! The reliability has been awesome for me!
Review: I admit, I drive too fast, always have...always will. After having a Whistler for about 7 years, I got hit with a laser that neither of us were ready for. Thankfully I had a front door and they got nabbed...so I went to the market to save myself...

BEL Vector 995

Date of Review:  Aug 10, 2005
The Bottom Line: Get this detector espically for the KU band since its coming 2006.
Review: I did lots of research on this model and the Rx 65. Wanting something with Ku ability since in 2006 this band will be available to law enforcement by a major radar gun manufactor.

According to Bel this unit has the same enternals and is...

Better than all others... but it's still missing features

Date of Review:  Apr 30, 2005
The Bottom Line: Read the review, better than most but I need something that works with POP radar
Review: First take a look at my Vector 940 review:

Vector 940 review
I replaced the 940 for the problems you read there, the main reason was it'd suddenly, for no reason at all, go to level 5 K band about a minute after it was turned on...

Very Satisfied, Granbury Texas

Date of Review:  Nov 28, 2007
The Bottom Line: If you want a radar detector that works then this is the one to get. It was rated for a reason.
Review: Recently I found myself on the hunt for a new Radar detector. After doing some research I chose two 955's one for my wife and one for me. I do alot of driving so I took
my 955 back and swapped it out with a little more money a picked up the...

Date of Review:  Jul 2, 2007
The Bottom Line: Will never recommend. Very expensive, no protection at all.
Review: I bought the V955 first in preparation for my long trip from washinton State to Nevada. Test drove the V955 for over 200 miles. It was terrible, saw the cops first before it went off. I returned it and got the upgraded one V995. This detector is the...
