This review is from: Whistler PRO-3600 Pro Series Installed Remote Laser-Radar Detector (Electronics)
The Pro 3600 is a significant step forward in remote radar detectors for Whistler. I love the concept of not having a radar detector on the dash, windshield, or visor. For many years I have used the Whistler Pro 3450 in several vehicles with great results and reliability. The newer 3600 has the modular design which offers more versatility and also more wires to deal with. I was unable to get an over the phone install price from two local businesses, so I did it myself. Installation is the main reason that it gets four stars. I have had previous experience, but the process is always challenging. If you have not had any experience with this type of DIY project, then get help or have it done professionally. I installed this on my Prius... and yes for those skeptics, the vehicle will go fast enough to get you in trouble. I had to install the antenna in the vertical position using two sided heavy duty sticky tape and the reflector. This was very easy and so far has worked well. Getting...Read more

I recently purchased this radar detector. I ordered it overnight because I was taking a trip in a few days. Ordered on late Friday night and arrived Tuesday by noon. I installed this detector approx 1 hour for installation. It comes with 2 small booklets - install manual and operator manual. I downloaded them off the internet so I could have full page instructions. I took a 4 hour trip and saw a few cops shooting radar. It seemed responsive on X, K, but Ka didn't give a long warning like I was hoping. I later learned that there is a Ka max setting. I turned this on and wow. Excellent warning. I have had Cobra base radar detectors in the past and this one blows them away. Laser does have many false alerts mainly by major airports. It goes crazy around O'Hare in Chicago. I learned that you can silence/store certain lasers and allow others. This thing is completely customizeable.I am currently working on disabling certain lasers that are not used in US. I am very pleased with my purchase...Read more

This review is from: Whistler PRO-3600 Pro Series Installed Remote Laser-Radar Detector (Electronics)
I have been looking for a decent hidden radar system for a long time that wasn't over $500. When I found this I was kind of skeptical until I started watching video reviews, and started reading reviews online. I caved in and decided to order it. Install was straightforward and pretty simple if you have any background working on cars. I didn't purchase any accessories that are offered for it as I just wanted front radar protection. I love the small control that can be mounted horizontal or vertical. Its small and stays out of sight (just in case you get pulled over and don't want the officer to see it). The interface is easy to use and understand. I have the sensor mounted quite low as my car is low to the ground, but that doesn't seem to affect the distance of the receiver. Turning on KA max mode gives you quite a bit more distance. On filter one setting I had quite a few false alerts so I turned it to filter 3 and turned off X and the false alerts have gone down quite a...Read more
