I've got a $70 whistler that works better than my friend's beltronics that he spent 300 bucks on (and sold shortly after)
I'll get the model number later.

My only beef with it was that one of the suction cups melted in the sun

I have a V1, but in that price range Uniden made decent detectors many years ago, sounds like you need to google.
