| smokeeee's Full Review: Beltronics BEL 980 Radar Detector |
I Love my Bel 980 Radar Detector with Shadow Technology. It seems to be working great but does have a great many false alerts.
The problem I am having is the power cord. One end fits in the cigarette lighter, and the other goes into the detector itself. It doesn't fit correctly in the detector; is very loose, and is CONSTANTLY shutting the unit off!! Then it has to go through the "Start Phase," over and over and over. It drives me nuts and won't stay on long enough to be able to use it. Previous to this Bel 980, I had a Bel Super wide band 745 and it was EXACTLY the same way. It looks like to me it is either the end of the cord that connects into the receptacle of the detector, or it's the receptacle on the unit itself, where the cord plugs into it, that is the problem. I really need some help on this problem as at this point, I can't even hardly use it.
