(This will be just as fun, but different from the mirror conversation)
Much like small mirrors are better, arrows are totally overrated on radar detectors.
There, I said it. Fight me.
I'm in lust with my Uniden R1/R3, for two great reasons-
First, it's range is beyond the ability of anything on the market currently. Really, the range on this thing is just awe inspiring.
Second, I have disabled (
read: totally don't need around my neck of the woods)) the X and K bands, so I get no, none, nada, not even a squeak, false alerts from either old school x band store front door openers or, much more importantly, those gawd damn BSM systems (Really Honda/Acura... Really?? Somebody pay you guys to use those frequencies or something??)
Arrows are just another LED. Don't care. There's a /real/ trigger out there, that's enough.Is it nifty to watch a signal go front>side>rear? Sure.
Does that change my behavior? Nope.
Arrows or not, don't care- If it's alerting I'm respectable. I've owned radar with arrows before, so have been there, done that. From the far side of that experience I say they don't matter.
