Customer Reviews For Cobra XRS 9545 Voice Alert 14 Band Radar/Laser Detector with POP Radar Gun Detection and DigiView Data Display

Great radar for the money!
 
Review Date: November 17, 2009
Reviewer: G. Miller, Florida
I got this radar detector after doing research on them for a few days. It was the best value out there for a radar that picks up so many different bands of radar. Thing thing has already saved me a few times from Sergeant D-bag. If you are looking for a good radar, then pick this bad boy up.

Note: Automatic doors may set off your radar. I get false alerts on city mode maybe 2 to 3 times a day in extremely busy areas with lots of stores that have automatic doors.
Perefect in all generalities
 
Review Date: July 7, 2009
Reviewer: William White, Tampa, Fl
Bought this item after looking over many other different detectors. And decided on this one. Had a little trouble with hard hard wiring it to the under the hood fuse box but figured it out after a little tweaking. After that had no problems. Product had me extremely satisfied with its performance. Very sensitive when its needed to be, granted not many if any false alarms. And the programing the product allows just adds to another great aspect to this radar detector. Great price, great buy...
It's working great!
 
Review Date: March 17, 2010
Reviewer: levon83, Yerevan, Armenia
I never had such a thing to compare with, and was surprised when it worked, worked great (like other products from this manufacturer!). Can't say anything about the range of detection except that I was able to slow down when needed and in time! The only thing that annoys is false detections in the city, even in "city" mode there is lots of them. Overall I like it much, and will recommend to my friends!
Cobra XRS 9545 is a solid buy!
 
Review Date: May 5, 2010
Reviewer: Joshua Joseph Jimenez, Houston, TX
This is the first radar detector that I have purchased and I am very satisfied with the product. I bought it based on the price and the good reviews that followed. The detector goes off every now and then for me when I drive by certain gas stations, because their doors set it off, but it doesn't keep beeping or anything. The times that I have seen cops, it lets you know from quite a bit away that their radar is near. I have had no problems with connections or functionality. I would only recommend spending a lot more money on a radar detector if you are doing some serious speeding all the time.

For those of us that like to speed every now and then and have gotten tickets for it, this is a great product to help ease getting caught speeding.
Works good

Reviewer: John Kessler, WV United States
This product works good. Has saved me from getting many tickets. The voice is very annoying but you can just turn that off.

Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description Whistler's XTR-540 laser/radar detector gives you full band protection from radar signals, 360-degree laser detection, Whistler's patented VG-2 cloaking technology, and plenty more. The brilliant blue text display, along with tone alerts and Whistler's unique alert periscopes, mean you'll never miss an alert. Competitive features and competitive pricing.

Competitive features and competitive pricing. Click to enlarge.

Battery Powered
The unit can provide approximately 15 hours of laser/radar detection with three rechargeable AA Ni-MH batteries, or you can plug it into your vehicle's cigarette lighter adapter (this will recharge the batteries).

Blue LCD Text Display
The XTR-540's brilliant display provides distinct visual confirmation of signals detected, signal strength, and indicates engaged modes of operation.

Patented POP Mode Detection
There are new guns out there that operate just like the instant-on guns of the past but with a very tough new twist--POP mode! This new gun is a normal K and Ka band radar gun detectable by most radar detectors made in the past 30 years until it's in POP mode. When the gun is in POP Mode and activated, a brief burst of energy, less than 1/15 of a second, is transmitted and the vehicle's speed is quickly acquired. A detector without POP Mode detection capability cannot respond to this brief transmission, but the XTR-540 can.

Low Profile Alert Periscopes
Whistler's Low Profile Alert Periscopes provide an added attention getting visual alert. The two extra LEDs flash on and off when the unit alarms to provide a unique visual alert.

3 City Modes/Highway Mode
Highway mode provides full audio and visual warning of laser/radar systems while maintaining full sensitivity. Highway mode is the default setting of all Whistler's laser/radar detectors. City mode helps reduce the annoyance of automatic door openers and burglar alarm alerts by providing an initial alert (same distance as Highway Mode) then remaining quiet unless the signal strength becomes very strong. When the signal increases the unit will alert briefly to notify you of the change in signal strength.

Brilliant blue LCD text display.

View features diagram. Click to enlarge.

Stay Alert
The Stay Alert feature is designed to test a driver's alertness. Within 30 to 60 seconds after the feature is engaged an alert is sounded; to show alertness, the driver must press the volume, city or the mute button within 3-5 seconds. If a button is pressed within 3-5 seconds, the cycle is repeated. If a button was not pressed within 3-5 seconds the unit alarms at full volume and the display shows an unique visual alert.

Quiet/Auto Quiet Modes
Pressing QUIET before a signal is detected engages Auto Quiet Mode, which automatically reduces the audio level after the initial warning to a low audio level setting. Pressing QUIET during a radar/laser encounter silences audio alerts, while allowing visual alerts to keep you informed.

Alert Priority
When two or more signals are received at the same time, the alert priority is: Laser, VG-2, Speed Radar, Safety Radar.

Example: If X band is alerting, then suddenly a VG-2 signal is detected, the VG-2 warning will override the X band alert.

Vehicle Battery Saver Mode
The Vehicle Battery Saver Mode automatically shuts off your detector within 3 hours if you forget to turn it off. The timer is reset if the detector is turned off, unplugged or any button is pressed before the 6 hours have expired. The detector will alert you with an audible and visual warning before it shuts off.

Safety Warning System--SWS
This relatively new radar is not for speed detection at all, it is used to keep you informed of highway safety. Transmitters are installed and programmed (for example: in emergency vehicles) to make you aware of possible situations that may require your attention, such as: ambulance vehicles that are moving or stationary, road hazards ahead, road construction delays or detours, etc.

VG-2 Detection Mode
The VG-2, also known as a "radar detector detector," is a special receiver used by police to detect signals radiated by a radar detector. The XTR-540 alerts you its presence, and thanks to Whistler's patented VG-2 cloaking technology provides undetectability.
