Should I keep a Valentine one radar detector I got on discount or sell it to get an Escort 8500?
I got the valentine for 200.00 dollars(cheap), but I like the blue display on the Escort 8500. Would it be worth it to just keep the Valentine? I mean, is the valentine that much better?
What version is the Valentine 1? And what the software number?
The most current V1 is the V1 1.8 with POP2 version 3.826
The V1 has much better radar and laser performance that the Escort 8500 X50.

If it's the most current V1 I would keep it cause it has better range and if it's not the most current see how much the upgrade is.

Type in the serial number and it will tell you the cost of an upgrade and what version you have…Please post it after you got the version of the V1
