Cobra Takes Radar/Laser/Camera Detection to a Whole New Level of Power, Performance and Ergonomic Convenience With Release of Cobra Vedetta SLR 650G
Broad Array of Powerful New Features and Virtually Unlimited Mounting Options Ensures Driving Peace-of-Mind and the Ultimate Driving Experience
(firmenpresse) - CHICAGO, IL -- (Marketwire) -- 06/20/12 -- (NASDAQ: COBR), a leading designer and marketer of award-winning automotive, mobile and consumer electronics, today announced the general availability of Cobra Vedetta™ SLR 650G, a breakthrough advancement in radar, laser and camera detection that sets a new benchmark in performance, form factor, and ergonomics at the high end of the market.
The Cobra® Vedetta SLR 650G delivers a 30 percent increase in performance over Cobra's current flagship model, providing superior range and maximum warning time to react to potential threats. Mounting radar/laser detectors on the center of the windshield has historically been critical for performance, but is not ideal for driver visibility as well as unit concealment. The SLR 650G solves this problem, thanks to a 2.4-inch TFT color LCD display on a multi-axis hinge and a ball-socket suction cup mounting bracket, which allows almost unlimited flexibility to mount the detector virtually anywhere on the car's windshield or dash. The display can be rotated 270 degrees vertically and 60 degrees horizontally.
In addition to setting a new benchmark among detection systems for convenience and driver ergonomics, the Cobra Vedetta SLR 650G offers an integrated GPS receiver and free, lifetime access to its AURA™ national database of speed/red-light cameras and known speed trap locations.
