Product Description

STi Driver, a powerful digital radar and laser detector which is invisible to even the most sensitive of radar detector detectors. Drive worry-free with the STi Driver leading the way. The STi Driver features a new platform for radar detection, built from the ground up by Beltronics. A magnesium housing provides extra durability and shields the STi Driver from detection. Beltronics' TotalShield™ technology removes all radio frequency emissions from the unit, so it can't be detected by the latest devices, including VG-2 and Spectre. The STi Driver offers nine programmable features to optimize the detector for your own unique road needs, including text display mode, brightness, AutoMute, and voice alerts. You can program the STi Driver's sensitivity for highway or three different city modes, and the generous 280 LED alphanumeric display, including bar graphs, keeps you informed. Go into full dark mode for the ultimate in stealth.

Summary

I purchased the STI Driver a year ago, and at first it seemed like it really worked. It provided advanced notice of Ka- Band radar. But as time has gone by, I get the feeling that it either needs calibrated, or it just isn't working as well. It stil picks up K-Band and X-Band way in advance, but it seems to be losing its ability to pick up Ka-Band as far into the distance that it used to. As a result of this decline in sensitivity, I'm considering purchasing a Valentine 1 and having both the STI and the Valentine mounted in the windshield to make sure I get maximum reception. I've followed all the recommended suggestions for handling the unit. I keep it out of the windshield when I park. I run the air conditioning in defrost mode to keep cool air on it while driving in Idaho and Utah in the summer where it can get blistering hot inside the car. I don't jostle it around or bang it on anything. I've treated it like a delicate instrument. I'm not confident any more that it's detecting like it used to.
