 Beware of this radar detector - IT IS NOT GOOD. June 19, 2008
This unit is NOT worth the money. I was impressed at first, as it gave fewer false alerts than my $400 Cobra. The detector, however, MISSES THE POLICE!!!!! I was sitting at a traffic light today on my way home from work. I noticed that there was a motorcycle cop sitting on the opposite side of the intersection clocking cars that were coming across the overpass. He may have been using a laser - he would raise and lower the gun as cars came at him. Anyway, I watched this for the 3 minutes or so as I sat in traffic at the light. The light changed and I went on and began to enter the freeway. All of the sudden, it hit me - the Whistler Pro 78 radar detector had not even gone off! I checked the detector and it was on, so it just didn't pick up what ever this cop was using. Needless to say, I unplugged the Whistler and powered my remote mounted Cobra back up. I paid $128 for this detector new from Amazon, and now it's gone up to $186. Maybe I got a defective unit, but I won't be getting another one. I am buying a high end unit. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS UNIT. I was really excited when I got it, but I won't buy Whistler again.
 Whistler Pro-78 Works Great. June 5, 2008
Whistler Pro-78 Works Great. It has saved my wife and I many speeding tickets. The best I have seen.
replacing a pro-73 June 4, 2008
Works better than the old 73 pro. Catches more from the side.
The only down side is the extra LEDs are a bit bright at night so I leave it in dark mode rather than dim as I used to on the 73.

I am happy with this product. Except for a few false reading it works well.

I love this unit. It has saved me numerous times (not that I speed, LOL). I have even been alerted to laser guns from over a mile away. The only drawback is that is does "false" a little more than the more expensive brands (BEL and Escort) but it is very sensitive and easy to use. I highly recommend it.
