 Decent radar October 6, 2008
C.S.
I rate this radar as a 4 star b/c of the great price for what you get. I recently used the radar for a 1 1/2 hour trip and worked ok. It beeped when a cop stopped someone for speeding on the side road but it didnt beep when there was a cop in the next lane but I believe it was b/c the cop was not lasering any cars but just driving and got off the next exit. Its pretty annoying in the city so I suggest to keep it on city mode II. Also while on the road it did give false alarms but I think the $150 ones would as well b/c its SUPPOSE to detect all lasers and you would visually have to see if its a cop. Hey its better than nothing and saves you $$ on tickets. Better to be safe than sorry (even if its annoying).

I purchased this detector for my son who would be driving from Texas to North Carolina. That fell through and I ended up using it here in San Antonio. It works well and as described, it has it's perks. It does pretty much what others have said and is a good value for the price. It has alerted me to a few law enforcement officials and probably saved me from at least one ticket. Just remember, if you jam on the brakes - they will get you. Slow down a little and coast it out, and this detector will serve you well. Unless you want to go 20 - 30 over the limit, this gives you ample time to slow down. I usually am not more than 5-10 over the limit, so it gives me plenty of reaction time...besides, it's just nice to know the fuzz are about right?

I recently bought this detector for my wife since she racked up a few tickets lately, and it has blown me away! I have an older Whistler 1545 detector that is pushing 10 years old now, and this one destroys it (even though the old one cost twice as much). The blue lights are a real attention-getter and the volume dial is a treat (something my old one doesn't have one). This baby picks up waaay farther than my old unit. It picked up a county Sheriff last night over half a mile away, over a HILL! It also caught the splash back from one of the automated radar warning signs they park on the highway (the "Your Speed Is__" things). We were coming up to it, it was 100 yards ahead of us facing oncoming traffic (away from us), and the detector caught the reflected radar waves bouncing off the oncoming trucks. Unbelievable. You would expect his level of performance in the $100-$200 detectors, but not from one that was under 40 bucks. This baby is a real gem.
Needless to say, I am buying another one to replace my old Whislter! Highly recommended.
Pros: Inexpensive, easy set-up, user friendly, exceptional performance.
Cons: None yet.
Great radar detector at a great price!! July 30, 2008

I have always used Whistler products and have never been let down by them. The XTR-140 adds blue flashing LED lights for added warning and they work very well. I have one of these in my car and I bought one for my father as well. A really great product!
