Cool Anyone run radar detectors?

I hear the Bel STI-R Plus is the best and undetectable by K-band and KA-band in Ontario. Anyone have experience with it or with other radar detectors?

Thanks!

Search, bro... V1 and Passport. Lots and lots of info (and opinion) to be found. I run a V1 and it has paid for itself 10 times over, at least. Never leave home without it.

Thanks for the input guys, I did some research already but wanted more input from locals. Where do you guys mount it? I am scared cops can see it if I mount it on the windshield since my window aren't tinted. Is it true it is only useful paired with a jammer?

This is the one I have installed in the car. We don't have issues with them being illegal in Alberta.

As for the laser jammer, haven't had the pleasure of seeing it in action.

I would like to know what people are using for photoradar. The detector doesn't go off and I know most radar detectors will not pick them up. I heard of a product called Data Blocker but it seems to be a startup.

Additionally, I am not sure how the rear jammer will work against photo radar.
