    radar detector.

    Just had some bad news...
    My valintine one needs a service and the company won't send it back to n.z no freight fowarding or anything. Unless I know someone in the u.s it's now a $1000 paper weight.

    When I got it k band was turned off. I havnt been up with the play... but now k band is used for cameras. So just a heads up.
    I'm looking at something new.
    Either escort passport max or red line.
    Anyone else up with the play...

    Before the valintine I had beltronics sti it was good but for some reason my bike didn't like them. Only half an hour ride and it would need a service. But no n.z servicing so they would give me a new one. But I got sick of that and got the valintine as a replacement.

    Valentine one would be my favorite but after having 3 flogged out of the cars I went to the built in Beltronics, bloody good but you have to remember how to set the right frequency's for NZ and after getting it installed into 4 different vehicles I have now brought the RX65.

    Valentine won't send it back?
    Unusual - he'd not had any issue at sending them back to NZ before after upgrade/service!

    Did you have KJ in the vehicle?

    Gwh.
    Valintine themselves.
    And radar direct who told me about it first.
    Should be able to turn your k band on for cameras.
