I'd much prefer to not deal with a cord, and I don't want to hard wire the detector into the car.
Thanks! |
Hello, Mr. Gurney. I have no experience with the S3, but have a great deal of experience with the S2. It is a very capable unit. Although I use a 9500ix now, I keep the S2 for use in rental cars and occasionally in the Juke (when my wife lets me drive it).
As far as hassling with the cord on a corded unit, I agree that it is a bummer to deal with the dangly, curly thing. So, I installed a Stealth cord for the 9500ix. It taps into the power and ground lines that go to the rearview mirror, if you have the Homelite unit. It was about 11 dollars and powers the unit perfectly. I hope this helps.
