I love mine. Have had V1s for over 20 years. A wonderful detector...
Well I'm sure if it's BRAND NEW that you can just return it, get all your money back, and buy another detector that you would prefer.OK, I have a BRAND NEW unusable item, and they want me to pay even more to make it usable !!!
That's what I did. One for each car...V1 is the only detector I'll use...best $400 I've ever spent! I feel strangely vulnerable, almost naked, when I forget to move it from my work truck to the V. Probably should just buy a second one...
Fwiw, I've noticed the only vehicles that set off the laser with their ACC are Toyota Siennas, Avalons, and several Infiniti models.
