Valentine 1 version 2.0

Anyone upgraded from generation 1 to generation 2?
-Thoughts?

Looks like a decent deal to upgrade, $389 verses $499 as a new unit.

I just did that. The G2 is a nice unit.

Not much more to report at this time...I’ve gone nowhere that needs me to plug it in.

Maybe even try Cobra.

I recently bought the cobra road scout for 449.95, brand new two in one dash cam radar that can be mounted to Bmws using the blend mounts and hardwired. The thing is amazing, never had any false readings and it always detects police. Dash cam for safety reasons too!

Video quality is great on there and has an app for live viewing and downloading the looped recording. It's definitely good to have one for the people who love to cut off Bmws lmao. I think it's 1080 p 60 FPS recording with a mic too.

Definitely look into it, it also has directional detection just like valentine
