| The revised Road Angel The new Road Angel acts as an extra pair of eyes to keep you alert to approaching danger and improves the safety of every journey. It is also very simple to install and update. Using the latest global positioning satellite (GPS) and Laser detection technology, Road Angel constantly gives you an accurate speed reading and an audible and visible alert as you approach hazardous sections of the road. Should you breakdown, ROAD ANGEL has a unique RescueLoc function which gives you a pinpoint location reading to help direct rescue services to your position. |

"Too many Sat Nav systems make this obsolete now"The Road Angel 2 is just too far behind it's SAT Nav competitors, that have the same features and more. It is worth spending the extra money on the SAT Nav systems for the added guidance features.

"does not work with laser or mobile vans" recommended reviewI have had one of these installed in my car for a year and a half it does not work on mobile laser guns and mobile vans. When I move it to my TVR it constantly says laser alert on rapid motion. Look at other makes if you want laser protection.

"simple and effective" recommended reviewMy Road Angel Plus has proved invaluable in recent round trips to Cornwall, including giving me a timely warning about a scamera van, I had heard that these were a weak spot in the system, but the "laser alert" was early enough for me to slow down. Have e...

"Could be so much better" recommended reviewMost useful as an accurate "head up" speedo, as database has too many ommissions (suspect they rely on users to add new scamera sites - and I do not think it is possible to do this on the move without crashing, as too complex and menu interface quite tric...

"Don't know why I bought it!" recommended reviewSeemed like a good idea at the time, but after a couple of weeks I stopped using it. I kinda figured that I drive with my eyes wide enough open to spot the fixed cameras (and if I don't, then maybe I should be driving a lot slower), and was not convinced ...

"So much potential, so dissapointing" recommended reviewSeverly limited functions on this unit. For this money I expected some decent software on the PC to configure the unit, rather than just a synchronise button. The only way to silence the thing is to turn the column setting to zero as the mute resets to on...

"Very Good"Only problem I've come across is it does tend to end up on the floor under hard acceleration due to the weak magnetic grip.
