V1 and Waze.

And If you really want to be as protected as possible, a very high quality laser jammer.

Interestingly, Valentine has been out of stock the entire month of May and is now out as well as I was trying to get the upgrade. They are supposedly waiting on parts, but I think something bigger is planned

Having waze on CarPlay is really great on my Panny. It’s a lot easier to report traps as well so I become a human detector LOL

I would recommend an Escort Max 360 + Waze. They complement each other nicely!

That’s interesting. I have two V1’s and love them but I do wish a major upgrade was coming soon.

I've been a V1 user for over a decade - excellent option. Experimented with some Escort and Uniden products over the years as well but the V1 has always been my preference.

My daily driver uses a V1/Uniden R3 (configured for red light camera and speed trap detection only) combo.
Looking at the newly-released Uniden R7 for the weekend vehicle.
