Can you provide the serial number to check if it has the latest firmware?

Sorry if this is dumb question - I'm not very familiar with V1, I just know that its the best - isn't the firmware user-updateable?

Firmware is factory upgradeable only. Cost and shipping is involved.

"As soon as we receive your old unit (in operable condition with no tampering of the serial number) we?ll install revised firmware and some new hardware, then return it to you in the shortest possible time with a new serial number to indicate its revised capability."

I sold my 4 year old V1 on eBay last year and it was bidded up to $380. Sounds like a good deal to me. Someone should snap it up quickly.

Status Report on Your Valentine One
Serial Number 4441100683

V1 Description: Radar circuitry known in-house as V1.8. This is our latest and best performer on both radar and laser with just one exception?it lacks POP Protection. Of interest to those who drive in Europe, the latest V1 version also has a Euro Mode.

Upgrade Recommendation: You have a sophisticated security system, and we?re cautious about recommending an Upgrade. If you believe in keeping up with technology, particularly if the POP Mode is being used in your area, then go ahead. V1?s approach to the POP problem is superior to all others in the industry. If you drive in Europe, you will appreciate our new Euro Mode which improves protection on photo radar as it is used in the E.U.S

Not my fav radar by far ( I don't get the hype) but a great price none the less. I'd jump on this for the price and sacrifice preference IMO

Won't be here long
