looking at getting another speed camera detector for my van, had a snooper s2 in my old one but left it in as it was hardwired and couldnt be bothered to take it out. seems road angel and snooper are the best but anyone have one that they think is a good buy, not looking to spend much as i already have a snooper "garage door opener" fitted which takes care of those pesky lasers but need something for the heads up on fixed etc. any advice welcome. cheers

They will only pick up cameras that they know are there. Mobile ones will only be detected once they fire the laser at you. By that time they have cought you.

nothing to do with cars but m8 on his bike goes through cameras well over over 60 on 30 zones and he has cut his reg in half and put a hinge on it so he just flips it up when he goes through camera.. as for the still speed cameras once you get on the first line you can speed off just a tip if ya racing..

The Road Angels are good and fairly cheap, the show you the current speed limit and warn of any 'potential' mobile cameras..

To be honest detectors just get annoying after a while.
