    My best reply is you shouldn't blow a fuse.
    My radar detector and camcorder are running off the same wire. I've had zero issues for close to a year.

    Radar detetors aren't always for going 105 mph on the interstate.
    Sometimes police and SO wanna give you a ticket for 3 over in a 25/35/45.
    I like to know they are out there

    Can’t say I have had that problem. Truthfully we don’t have many LEO around here, and they tend to look the other way at my truck, or directly at it maybe.

    lol i drive with a radar, even if i dont go 20-30 over the speed limit, its nice to have esp at night in case cops are parked up somewhere waiting to snag you. If it can save me 250 for a speeding ticket, i'll always have a detector. Sure, you can say "well just dont speed" but lets be honest, even if you go 10 over the limit, some cops will still ticket you.

    Like I said they don’t give a shit around here. Only see them in certain spots and when people get pulled over in the 65 it’s because they are topping 80.
