Well, if you saw how easy it was to get to the buttons in my current scheme, you'd understand.

In my case, I've got the thing set down to its quietest volume already, and that's still pretty loud. So I'd only really be turning the thing off if it was bugging me. And that's probably going to get done via the driver's side map-light switch (I never use the driver's side map light).

I've already driven with the thing for a couple days now, and even in highway mode, it didn't chirp once on my way to and from work. So I'm really glad about it not falsing a lot.

I haven't seen any cops at all in the time I've had it, so I don't know what its sensitivity is like with the Real Thing.

Figures. Last month or two, my regular routes have been just LOUSY with cops, they were everywhere. Seemed like they were stepping up their patrols or something. That's part of the reason I wanted a detector. But then, the day I get one and want to test it out, they all scurry off and run away.
