The Valentines are great. I had one, but someone decided that I needed to replace my window and he needed a new detector. I have not had the opportunity to replace it. I like the fact that you can upgrade the firmware with them.

My recommendation is Valentine. It's got good range and
the arrow system points you in the direction of the speed-measuring
LEO.

Thanks.
I got the idea when I used to ride motorcycles. I had a bright orange laminated card attached to my jacket zipper that had a lot of info on it. If you get into accident or emergency situation they will always look for the ID.

great ide on the sticker, I will certainly be making one of these when my new DL comes in (address change before CHL class )

I live in SA and work in Austin. With my long commute I tend to speed.
I was nailed by DPS on I35 Northbound right before I entered Kyle.
The officer approached my car and introduced himself as Officer XYZ, informed me of why he pulled me over and asked for my DL and proof of insurance.
I told him for my safety and his that I was a valid CHL holder and I was carrying my weapon on my person. He said fine and took my DL and Insurance. I did fail to give him my CHL and he never asked for it.

He squinted to look at the sticker since it is small. He asked if I was a officer. I told him I was not commissioned at the time. He indicated I would be receiving a warning, and that it would not show up on my driving record and he would be right back. He was back in about 1 minute. He asked what kind of pistol I was carrying. I told him a Glock, and he nodded with approval, and told me to be safe. The whole incident lasted less than 3-4 minutes one we came to a stop. This is the first time I have been pulled over since I have had my CHL or graduated from the Police Academy. The PID# may have gotten me out of the ticket, who knows. But he was very polite and professional.
