does it detect police cruiser and or what else?

It will If the cruiser has a radar unit in it and if the unit is turned on and sending out radar emissions..Police radar units are dash mounted and have a circular or horn antenna aimed down the road in front of them and also behind them it it has two antennas,one in the front and one in the back. They also have radar guns that can be operated from their side windows on occasion but can also be dash mounted. Radar detectors only pick up traffic radar emissions not the cruiser or anything in it other then a operating traffic radar. Police can also turn off their radar and wait for a speeder to come in sight and then turn it on before you have time to slow down even with a radar detector. Luckily they often do not do this but be aware of hills or curves where police often hide with their radar either on or off as a blind cuve or hill will allow little warning for even the best radar detector. In these cases slow down before you approach them. Police radar can be used "on the move" which is often their preferred mode of operation. They drive in the far left passing lane with either their radar on ,which is pretty easy to find,or off in "stand by" and trigger their radar when they see a person going above the speed limit moving toward them. They can also do this with speeding vehicles coming up behind them but they don't do it when they moving very often. Hope this is helpful. Feel free to ask any other questions you have about this topic.

I need to know if it will detect stationary speed cameras. not red light cameras

It works on detection. If the air is polluted, it will automatically turn on higher to filter it, ie..cigarette smoke, cleaning solutions, food odor, kids farts..:)

I bought the max. it has gps, so there is a memory feature on where the red light cameras and other fixed speed traps are, which has proven very useful. it has a broad range of bands. I have had it for 6 months and it has found the police on many occasions. No tickets. It does pick up laser, but I've read that because of the narrowness of the beam the warning basically says "you just got a ticket". I have been very satisfied with the Max.

Yes, the detector gives different sounding codes based on the type of 'radar' being utilized. There's also a voice recorded in the unit to tell you what it is. So you'll get something like "beep, beep, beep, K-Band" or "... X-Band" or "KA-band" or "Laser Alert". It is, to my knowledge and from my experience with the device, 360 degrees of detection with the possible exception of laser. I think the laser is somewhat limited to a wide front angle and a wide rear angle. Obviously since laser is a light-based wave, the side of the car may be interfering with the device's ability to sense it. I hope this was useful.

Both, supposedly. It say 360 radar detection but I never see them clocking from behind me

Police radars mainly use "k" & "ka" alerts. Other car radar detectors use most of the others, so I recommend checking those off the menu list as I did. In town shops with automatic doors will set of the police alerts, and if you pass them often enough, you'll recognize them. Highway driving with the police alert going off briefly with no police in front or behind might be a police car going in the other direction or hills/median concrete walls causing the signal to break up intermittently.

No they do not detect red light camera's. Try downloading the app WAZE as it does everything from DUI road blocks to red light cams.

Not sure about the question. My detector was returned as it was defective as it kept saying 'service required'. I do not recommend this device or the company.

Hi, No it will not. It's for reading engine codes. The Alarm system is an auxiliary system is if it is monitored at all.

Not sure what you mean. It is undetectable, but I believe radar detectors are illegal in commercial vehicles.

I do not have a radar detector. I do not need one. But, I suspect the NAVGEAR UDM will work to keep your radar detector device in place on the dash. If not, just slow down and avoid the alternative. :)

See it does, it has RED LIGHT camera detection, and this is used by the GPS.

No, it won't. Because this has been designed only for Escort Radar Detectors. May I give you a piece of advice though, I'd sell your Cobra iRadar and get a good RD of Escort, Valentine 1 or Beltronics. That RD won't save you from a ticket by the way.

My only answer is.....no it does not have any alarms, but it does send a constant red flashing light. Unless the prowler is brave enough to actually take the chance that this is not sending a signal, I think it will serve as a deterant.

I believe it does. You can add it to, for example, a Redline which has no GPS. It will use the GPS in your phone. But the lockouts are MANUALLY done by the user. It can also reduce some falses on a Max because it knows the Posted Speed Limit. If you are below the Posted Speed Limit it will not do a normal alert. It will go into "Cruise" mode with a short alert and go silent.

yes!, it tells you the type of radar signal and a gives you a different sound alert for each different type of police radar.
