I bought this radar detector less than a year ago, and I was blown away by it's performance. I no longer need it as I don't drive my car much anymore now that I am in college, and I need money for textbooks. It works very well, and can be used with batteries or with a phone line hooked to the 12-volt power supply. Included is the detector unit, the windshield mount, and two brand new AA batteries.
