Home > Consumer Reviews > Whistler DE1740 Laser Radar Detector with Voice Alert

Every feature is very good, but but the light indicators were faded/gone within one month. I don't know whether I got the defect item or the poor quality of indicators. So I decided to request the replacement for Amazon.com

As a fan of the whistler products, I bought the 1740 as a birthday present to myself. I've had BEL's and Passport's and even a Uniden detector, and for the money you cannot find a more solid detector than a whistler. On the highway detection is fantastic and around town in the city mode, the unit works near flawlessly. This machine is a big bang for the buck!!!

I bought one for myself from a wholesaler and its been a top selling item on e-bay for me ever since. What's make it different is that its speach activated. It actually talks to you. The only thing I might change is the space age look, but other than that its a good item.

I bought it thinking of it as a cheep reminder to slow down. But its been the best investment iv ever bought just make sure your not leading the pac of road warriors and youll be well informed of when and how foar a speed trap is.

the availability for this item is not worth the wait. i have been waiting since march 4th for this item to be sent to me but all i get is emails saying the estimate shipping date is delayed. supposedly im not getting this item till may 10th? i think. anyways im not expecting it anytime soon...
