Vector 995 a winner!

Date of Review:  Sep 7, 2004
The Bottom Line: You buy a radar detection for protection. This one has the best ratings compared to others like it - why get an inferior one?
Review: I read the other reviews here that complained about too many false alarms, but I also found some magazine articles comparing this unit to others in the same price range. These articles never mentioned a problem with false positives so I decided to...

Great detector

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2005
The Bottom Line: I would not hesitate recommending potential buyers to purchase this unit. It will save you the expense of tickets and the higher insurance premiums that go along with them.
Review: The absolute best detector I have owned. I have had this for over a year without getting a ticket. 2 nights ago the 995 started going crazy. Ka, Pop and laser. I thought it was developing a problem until I came upon a deputy sheriff cruiser and van...

Good Detector

Date of Review:  Apr 30, 2009
Review: Not a bad detector...minimal false alarms...like others have said, there are the occasional K-band false alarms but other than that, it's not bad. Honestly, I'd rather have it warn me about every little thing than nothing at all. It has a very...

Vector Rocks, unless you leave it on in a 135 degree car........

Date of Review:  Jul 13, 2007
The Bottom Line: Buy it because it works good and is cheap, shut it off when out of car!
Review: I have a 955 and the guy saying it does not detect well must have a defective detector. Mine picks up cops over hills and around corners great, many times at over 2 miles. If he is getting hit with laser these (all detectors) are useless and that...

Very Satisfied, Granbury Texas

Date of Review:  Nov 28, 2007
The Bottom Line: If you want a radar detector that works then this is the one to get. It was rated for a reason.
Review: Recently I found myself on the hunt for a new Radar detector. After doing some research I chose two 955's one for my wife and one for me. I do alot of driving so I took
my 955 back and swapped it out with a little more money a picked up the...

Beltronics Vector 995

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2004
Review: I have been a consumer of beltronics radar detectors for the last 17 years. My current 8 year old Bel served me well but was not picking up the new POP radar and the laser detection stopped working. Armed with $300 I proudly purchased the Vector...

Very poor customer services from Beltronics and bad detector

Date of Review:  Dec 14, 2005
Review: I got this Bel Vector 995 for about 1 year and lost 6 points as this detector do not do its job as what it stated from Bel. It also comes with a fault message and I contacted Beltronics. They asked me to send back this unit to the State from the UK...

Date of Review:  Jul 2, 2007
The Bottom Line: Will never recommend. Very expensive, no protection at all.
Review: I bought the V955 first in preparation for my long trip from washinton State to Nevada. Test drove the V955 for over 200 miles. It was terrible, saw the cops first before it went off. I returned it and got the upgraded one V995. This detector is the...

Good range... but WAY too many false alarms

Date of Review:  Aug 10, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you're on a tight budget, go for a Vector 985 - older generation, but great detection and filtering. Otherwise, try the RX65, Escort 8500X50... stay away from the 995!
Review: My previous radar detector was a Beltronics Vector 985. The 985 had become one of those 'industry standards', and most reviews will tell you that you cannot go wrong with that unit.
Well I decided to upgrade, and give the Vector 995 a try...

Worst radar detector ever.

Date of Review:  Apr 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: Get something else, you will have no warning at all from this detector.
Review: I bought this detector from Frys a few days ago it has a lot of features and was well reviewed on the radar detector test sites. After a day or two with it, it seemed like it had worse range than my previous detector, because it wasn't going off in...
