Editorial Reviews :
The Beltronics Express 936 radar/laser detector detects X, K, Super Wideband Ka (33.4-36.0 GHz) radar, laser, and SWSTM signals. Sixty-five digital voice prompts and/or audio alerts make the driver aware of signal detection, while a text message display identifies radar band and signal strength via a bar graph. Convenience features include memory retention of preferred settings, a tutorial mode, full bright/dim/dark settings, automatic and manual muting of audio alerts, and instant-on/pulsed radar warning.
Buyer Reviews :
I've tried this unit in two different cars in a wide range of driving conditions. The false alerts will drive you crazy, even on city mode. I find that I'm hardly using it because it's always beeping. When I enabled the VG2 alert, it was constantly false alarming, and telling me that radar may be in use (there's no way there are that many radar guns being used on an empty interstate in the middle of nowhere, or even in heavy city traffic for that matter). My first ticket in 10 years happened on my first road trip using this new detector.
The speaker is on the right side of the unit, so it's perfect for the front seat passenger to hear loud and clear. Hmm... maybe it was designed for right hand drive cars? The volume control is very tedious to use. It's the same button as the power, so you have to press and hold it just right or it will just turn off. Basically, if you have it loud enough to hear clearly, your passenger is being blasted.
If you're thinking that the SWS feature is nice (as I did) take a look at where SWS is in use. I've driven through alot of places with this detector in use and SWS has never activated.
I think I'll go back to my old Uniden Stalker - I have never gotten a ticket while using it and it couldn't be easier to use. It even falses MUCH less than the Bell.
