I've seen this detector pick up sneaky police up to a mile away, the VG-2 works great as well,supposedly there are better units out but I'm sure they would cost a lot more.

Info on the Bel warranty issue rating: 3
Based on the reviews here about the Beltronics warranty issues, I called Beltronics just now and asked them "what it would cost to have an out-of-warranty 965 repaired".
Answer: $59.95 (which includes return shipping).
Next question: "If I buy a second one for my wife's car from amazon, is is covered under warranty as being purchased from an 'authorized reseller'?"
Answer: Well, you have to watch out for resellers who sell through amazon, they get detectors from store closeouts and such...
I said, "No, I mean if I buy from amazon itself. Is it covered?"
Answer: Yes, amazon itself is an authorized reseller, and you'll be covered.
I don't know if the company rep was blowing smoke, but that's what he said. If he was truthful, then the detectors that Bel wouldn't cover under warranty were bought from an independent seller doing business through amazon, NOT amazon itself.

Detectors okay - Service is is the worst around rating: 1
The detector had been in use less then 6 months when it died. Sent it back for warranty repair (1 year warranty) and they indicated it was out of warranty because I bought it from an un-authorized dealer. Yet they do not list who is authorized to sell it. If you purchase one you better make sure they are authorized to sell it or you will get no support from Beltronics. They leave it up to the consumer to take on this risk. It would be one thing if they had a list of resellers on their web site, but they don't. They want you to call them to find out if the reseller it authorized before you purchase. I have never dealt with a company like this. They indicated that they did not know how the un-authorized sellers are getting the products so it becomes a customer issues (they did confirm the unit I shipped them was a real Beltronics detector).
There are other detectors out there that are as good or better. I would not purchase another one from them.

not impressed rating: 1
I owned 2 Bels before this one. The new mounting system stinks. Previously just snapped on, now I have to pay attention and sometimes use both hands to mount it when I'm driving. Have to push down a button to lock it in and adjust forward/back at the same time. Wouldn't have bought it had I known. Regrets.
