Any of the pogo products are good, I use Alert plus, have several cradles and one unit which I move from vehicle to vehicle. £90 for three years updates is a bit strong but it has saved my arse so many times and also comes with laser detector 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

hello simple 1 i just googled one of those and see they are pretty expensive at circa 250 quid but i noted thay had built in alerts so i didnt see the requirement to pay a subscription (unless im missing summat?)

Do need updated as they cover all types including average speed cameras on motorways which move, obviously static cameras don't

I have Pogo Alert (plus? It's a small diddly one with colour touch screen) but I never use it anymore. Just use my eyes and ease off the throttle. Got caught while using it once, 38 in a 30 or something, because I mistook it for a 40 limit... so what's the point? L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso

I have a Valentine 1 which is brilliant, it saved me twice last weekend alone. This is the only State where they are legal. We have hidden cameras in bushes here so you need technology to beat them. Not sure if they are available in Blighty? Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6

Law in uk is a bit grey about detectors. Not like rest of Europe where they are banned and incur €1000 on the spot fine. If the devise gives safety warning, ie a school, they are legal, if they only give speed trap warnings then illegal. 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

Don't forget speed cam database can be installed as poi on models from I believe 2012/13. I use the ones from pocketgps. & they work fine. |
