The Pro-78 SE is Whistler's latest upgrade to the Pro-78 Rev C detector for 2009.
Similar in features and performance to the XTR-690 SE, the Pro-78 SE has "Ka max" for further increased detection on Ka-band, as well as improved false alarm filtering, Ka-band "signature ID" as well as laser ID - allowing users to lock out false laser alerts based on the pulse rate.
Here at DelonixRadar we no longer sell the Whistler Pro-78 SE , however for Australian or New Zealand customers, we recommend purchasing from Radar Detectors Australia - as they have the cheapest price in $AU dollars / $NZD offered by any online or offline seller in Australia and New Zealand. Otherwise you could risk it, and try buying one off eBay.

The new Whistler Pro-78SE has taken the best features of the re-engineered Pro-78 Rev C and added more features and a fresh new look for mid 2009. The Whistler Pro78SE further improves the performance of these budget priced radar detectors by Whistler.
The Pro-78SE Laser-Radar Detector will pick up all radar bands (X, K, KA) as well as all laser radars and has POP mode detection. The Whistler Pro-78SE Radar Detector has a quiet mode, city/highway function, and dual alerts to warn you if multiple threats are received.
The Pro78SE also includes an auto dimming display for a easier to read screen in both the day and night. Another nice addition is the included hard wire kit which will allow you to wire the unit directly to the electrical system and not use the cigarette lighter cord.

Installation and Programming the WHISTLER PRO-78 SE Radar Detector
The Whistler PRO-78SE is easily installed onto the windshield by attaching the metal bracket supplied to the unit, and then pressing the two vacuum cups at the desired position on the windshield. We recommend mounting the detector in the middle of the windscreen, either up high next to the rear vision mirror or down low at the dash level, as long as it clears any physical objects such as the windscreen wipers. For a detailed explanation on which position is best to mount it, see our FAQ page.

Hi mate, i recently came across a new radar detector that is made in oz suited for oz conditions, called "Vengeance" - I was just wondering how this compares to the Valentine 1, as couldnt find any info on it. Would like to know your info on this and which one would be more suited for wa, ta.
It's an Asian manufactured radar detector (it's not made in Oz) imported solely by radars.com.au
I haven't tested one myself, so I cannot comment on it's performance.
But for a proven track record on being one of the best performers around, look at http://www.guysoflidar.com/radar-detector-test-august-2009/staged-real-world-tests.html
