I got it to, but for me works yust fine.
Two days ago saved me geting ticket. I was doing 65mph and after catching laser signal I decelerated to 40mph and cops didnt pullover me.
People buy detectors and think that now they can drive 200mph and be safe from radar.
Laser radar can catch your speed in 3 second after activating, and detector if catch that signal it going to alarm you immediately, so you got abouth 3 second to slow down.
So now you just need to calculate how much mph you can kill in 3 sec

I agree with imported D Roc that Valentine 1 is the best but its 4 times more expensive
than Cobra xrs-757, so if you can afford Valentine 1 its better option

It's not strictly 3 second, some time more, it depends of many factors distance, speed, visibility..., but I want to say that laser radar can detect speed very fast, so you have little time to react.
Watch these videos, its intresting test for detectors
