If you don't have one, get one.
 
Review Date: December 27, 2008
Reviewer: Wicked, NC
I've probably used this for about a year now. Still going strong. Saved my a** more than once. I think cobra makes some the best radar detectors in their price range. This one replaced my old cobra that was about 7 years old. I would say this one gives me about twice the warning time of my older one. It does a better job of picking up the radar signal when i'm approaching the crest of a hill. Highly recommended!
Great Service, Great Product!
 
Review Date: January 7, 2009
Reviewer: D. Swiger, Colorado Springs, Co
Had no problems with anything. Site was easy to navigate, and the prices were great. Product is excellent and delivery speed was exceptional especially before xmas 2008.

Thanks,

Does what it was designed to do ....
 
Review Date: October 7, 2008
Reviewer: John H. Derickson, Dale City, VA
I took a recent 400 mile trip in to West Virginia from Virginia and this unit alerted me several times ... with enough time for me to check my speed and adjust accordingly. I picked up a moving police car coming up on my rear several minutes before the police car caught up with and passed me. So, in my opinion, for the money, it's a good unit. TWO things I do not like: I'd like to have a visor mount and I'd like to have a straight, fairly long power cord. For this reason I give the detector a 4.
Good unit, better out there for the price.
 
Review Date: August 1, 2008
Reviewer: Want the best,
The Cobra 9840 has plenty of features that are good. The only major problem is the lack of radar sensitivity. Not close in comparision of other brands of units such as the Whistler pro 78 or xtr 690. Both are within the price range of the Cobra while offer much better performance and detection range. Check out the others before buying the Cobra brand.
SAVE TIME AND LOOK ELSEWHERE!
 
Review Date: February 20, 2009
Reviewer: Tommy Villegas,
My old and reliable Cobra Radar Detector went out and I decided to get this one. I don't know if Cobra made the newer models less sensitive or what. This model has no range and gives too many false alerts. Am sending it back to get a Beltronics Detector.

Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description Whistler's XTR-190 laser/radar detector is as affordable as it is full-featured. With total band protection from radar signals, 360-degree laser detection, Whistler's patented VG-2 cloaking technology, and plenty more, you'll get an effective detector that doesn't break the bank.

An affordable, full-featured laser/radar detector. Click to enlarge.

Easy access to various modes and functions. Click to enlarge.

Brilliant icon display provides visual alerts.

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).

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.

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-190 alerts you its presence, and thanks to Whistler's patented VG-2 cloaking technology provides undetectability.

Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description Rocky Mountain's RMR-C435 alerts you to all radar bands, and offers 360-degree laser detection. It also provides the benefit of undetectability by alerting you to the presence of VG-2 and VG-3 signals, aka "radar detector detectors," and incorporates Safety Alert and Safety Warning System detection. Even better? An on-board radar/laser scrambler for some real peace of mind.

Powerful detection with integrated radar/laser scrambling. Click to enlarge.

Radar/Laser Detector
The RMR-C435 gives you 360-degree detection of all Radar bands (X, K, Ka, SuperWide, Pulse, Instant-On) and all Laser Speed Devices (Pro-Laser, LTI, Laser-Lite, and Stalker). Adaptive laser tracking (ALT) ensures better laser performance.

Integrated Radar/Laser Scrambler
In addition to detection, The RMR-C435 will scramble all radar and Lidar guns.

Brilliant alert screen with dimmer.

Mount for windshield attachment.

Includes coiled vehicle power cord.

  • Laser Scrambler
    Lidar sends out laser pulses and measures how long it takes to hit your car and come back. From the speed of light it can determine your range. It sends out several more pulses and calculates your speed from the change in distance over time. The RMR-C435 transmits pulses electronically timed at 100 feet apart. This only allows the Lidar to see up to 100 feet so it is unable to calculate your speed.

  • Radar Scrambler
    It works on all police radar bands (X, K, Ka, super wide). Inside the scrambler are 3 elements: an FM chirp generator, a mixer diode and a dual ridge wave-guide antenna. When the scrambler is hit by a signal it runs it through the mixer, adding the FM chirp to mix up the signal and using the antenna, reflect back this new signal to the radar gun. The radar gun's computer can't recognize the new signal; it gets confused and won't display a reading on the gun, leaving a blank screen.

Advanced Micro-Scan
Scans the radar bands 2-4 times faster than as any other detector. This allows Rocky Mountain devices to pick up the new P.O.P. radar that no one else can.

Smart-Scan
When Rocky Mountain devices detect radar in one scan, they repeat that scan, instead of completing programmed scans and returning. This means they detect quicker with less false alarms than any other detector.

VG-2 and VG-3 Immunity
VG-2 and VG-3 are devices police use to detect radar detectors. This model provides the benefit of 'undetectability' by alerting you to the presence of VG-2 and VG-3 signals.

Safety Alert and Safety Warning System
The RMR-C435 unit incorporates the Safety Alerts (SA) and Safety Warning Systems (SWS) detection. This safety feature warns you of the presence of potential road hazards by detecting signals from safety transmitting devices.

City Mode
The false-alert are often caused in urban areas by automatic door openers and alarm systems. The RMR-8RD features a City mode, in which the X band is not detected and K/Ka band sensitivity is lowered.
