[QUOTE="Pep, post: 249666, member: 3248"] I agree with Cariboo. I have a 3 year old Passport Max 360 and yes, it is useless in the City of Edmonton with their fancy dragon eye photo laser, but it is great on the highway. It has saved me tickets. The beauty of the 360 I really like is you get an arrow pointing in the direction the signal is coming from. That way you know if if it something from behind you or ahead of you and I have found that very useful numerous times. The other feature I like about it is comes with a data base of where photo radar cameras are located permanently like at certain light structures and it will give you a warning/reminder before you get to them. You can add more locations with a press of a button and it saves into the database in the camera. you can login into the interwebs and update the database as well. There is also a lockout feature that will log out a spurious signal that you can get from certain types of door motion detectors so it will never go off in that spot for that type of signal again. Cariboo is also 100% correct there is NO perfect detector. If a cop is setting up a laser and you are the first one he tags all your detector is telling you is you have a ticket and pull over. Ka band radar is used on the highways a lot and you will pick up bounce back signals from other vehicles from a long ways away with a good detector. Laser you will get some but not near as much distance warning since it is light diffracting not radar waves. The only way to be 100% protected is a very expensive AND illegal laser jammer system but you need to be a hard core speeder to consider those in my opinion. This is one of the better Canuck online sites for detectors. [URL='https://kmph.ca/']KMPH.ca[/URL] [/QUOTE]
