..and found some comments that people thought the author was biased against V1

I, too, have read this somewhere, but I do not recall where.

I didn't study the radartest article in depth, but my brief scan of it seemed to show that their biggest complaint against the V1 was lack of "features".

How many features do you need in a radar detector, anyway? As far as I''m concerned, only two things matter: Is there radar pointed at me; and how far away/from what direction is it?

I'm not terribly worried about whether it is K-Band, or KA-band. I just want enough warning so that I can stop doing Bad Things (tm).

My V1 has proven to be nearly invincible -- I got stopped once with instant on radar, but was not ticketed.
