He got me doing 67 in a 40 (on an empty road), which unfortunately in CT is an automatic traffic misdemeanor. That means I will most likely get 6 points on my license and a HUGE fine.
What I've always known (but taken for granted until now) is that NO radar detector out there can protect you from a laser. The only way to avoid cops (besides going the speed limit) is to get a laser scrambler/diffuser, which I plan to get in the near future since it seems that more and more cops are switching over to lasers these days.

I've seen them around for $5-600, which doesn't sound bad to me considering how much $$$ it could potentially save me in the long run.

I just got my V1. The best and easiest hardwire is to the rear view mirror. It is the simplest hardwire that I found on this forum. Took less than 1 hour start to finish. Forget about going to the fusebox it is a complete waste of time for the V1 hardwire. Trust me.
