I had less range when it was mounted low which is where it normally is. And I had no alert at all when it was mounted up near the top

the poliscan was parked at the end of a small hill near one of the train stations. i think unless you're driving on flat ground with no hills or bends the v1's detection range is really poor. i'm now scared of these new cameras. this one didnt have 2 cameras, one pointing each direction. this set up only was facing one direction like normal multanovas.
That's not good! I've seen at least 5 operational poliscans now and always had quite good warning, but they've all been forward-facing so far. I've detected them when going the opposite direction, but only very briefly after passing them.
