Radar Detector recommendations?
 
Can someone tell me what is the best detector on the market right now? I used to be pretty up to date with this kind of info, but have since not put much attention into it. I recall there was a website testing (independently?) radar detectors. Does anyone have any of the info from that site? I know the Valentine 1 was a long time winner and favorite amoung BMW owners; what is the general consensus now? Thanks!

No research really necessary. V1 is the way to go. Once one has used the arrows, there is no going back. I was saved by the arrows a couple of times this past weekend!

I have the remote Bell RX75 plus - works perfectly and always keeps me out of trouble. It's worth looking into.

Valentine One (plus Stealth One, if you can find it and you have an iBus BMW (E53, but not E70)).

I have a Escort and my next one will be a V1. I am also considering a Blinder laser jammer for the front as I have received 2 tickets with the Escort only.

Escort 9500 is a good one but if you want integration then go with V1 with S1. S1 is discontinued but you can pick a used one on ebay or from some member here.
