Quite a few members own a V1. You can search the forum for answers. I own one and have been pleased with it since buying it.

More than worth it. I kid you not, mine paid for itself at least a dozen time over now since I've had it the last 3+ years.

Its good, no doubt about it. But there are other ones out there that work just as well, you just need to research it. On here you'll hear mostly nothing BUT the V1 - I don't own it, I own the passport 9500ix. Haven't been pulled over since, and it has an unbelievable range. You do the research and make your decision - you won't go wrong with the V1 or the 9500x.
