Not really, if I made up my mind I would have purchased one already instead of posting this!
I want to know why the arrows are so important, so far no one has explained this.
Yeah it shows you where the cops are front, side, behind.. but like I said on my first post, regardless where they are,
if I hear a alert, I will slow down to the speed limit until the alert is gone.
So please tell me how the arrows work in my behalf.. your last example failed.

its simple if the threat is in front slow down, if the threat is behind you and getting weaker then you are good to go

Before I make my decision on a purchase, I just wanted to know why the arrows are important. Your above example is
works similar to any other detectors in the market. With other detectors, when you drive away from the threat the signal decreases, does it not?

Its not the issue with money... the Passport 9500ix is a hundred dollars more than the V1.

some just stop altogether others the time between each beep increases
The arrows give you the exact direction of the radar. That's it. Its not Haitian voodoo or some shit man
