I've had a V1 for 5 or 6 years and love it.  The connectors have worn out and need replacing, but the cables are fairly cheap.  Other than that it's been problem free, and I do use it everyday.  IMHO, the directional arrows and bogey counter are why, for the price, the Valentine is my pick.

the v1 seems like the best their is i never knew its been out for sale for that long ive seen 8 year old units going for 200 bucks or more i might just buy a new one from valentine ity seems like its worth it
