I bought the GR-91 GPS radar detector, which requires no wiring, and I also compared the differences with the GR-81.

I need a new GPS radar detector.
I've blogged about it before.The socket-type GPS radar detector from Cellstar is very convenient and useful, as well as reasonably priced at about 5,000 yen."I wrote an article that said something along the lines of.
My husband bought a new GPS receiver from Cellstar, the GR-91, and we have started using it at home.
About GR-91
The new "GR-91" is also a socket type, which can be installed by simply plugging it in with a one-touch operation.
No wiring is required and the compact size makes it easy to transfer the system to another vehicle. It can also be carried with you when renting a car.
Again, theSpeed controllers, speed points, etc. are communicated by "voice" and "Hikari".The features of the system are as follows. As for audio, for example, receiving a GPS signal from a loop coilTwo kilometers ahead, loop coil. Danger. Slow down.It will tell you things like. Then it would warn me 1 km ahead, 500 m ahead, and just before
Camera is in front (right side, left side, etc.), passing speed is ____ km/h
They say.I honestly don't have time to look at the screen while driving on the highway, much less look away from it, which is dangerous, so I really appreciate the audible warning.
As for the "light," the specifications were simpler than before. In the previous version, the glowing part was so small that it was hard to recognize at a glance.This time, the design has only one light in the middle.This lights up "red," "yellow," and "green" to indicate the level of warning content. A quick glance at the cigar socket area immediately reveals the color, so we feel that the new product is still more user-friendly.
Other major new features include
(1) Corresponds to Zone 30
Warns of "Zone 30" (places with traffic restrictions that limit the maximum speed to 30 km/h in urban and residential areas) as published in the Speed Enforcement Guidelines.
(2) Includes points where new control machines are installed
New type of enforcement equipment that can be installed or removed for the purpose of enforcement on residential roads, as well as locations where it has been installed in the past or has been moved.
(iii) Contains areas to be careful of driving on the wrong side of the expressway
Alert people to areas on the highway where they are likely to run the wrong way.
*Quotes.GR Series "GR-91" by Cellstar Industrial Co.
That's what it looks like. Regarding this (3), they actually alerted me the other day when I was driving on the Kyushu Expressway. However, at first"Reverse Running Beware Area."I am not accustomed to hearing the phrase, "What? What? What do you mean, "beware of what? But when I listened to it carefully, I realized that it was a warning against driving in the wrong direction (it can be turned off). (It can also be turned off.) The GPS receiver is of course compatible with the recently popular mobile Orbis system.
Differences between old and new products
Let's compare the new product with the one we used to use at home. First of all, the size is almost the same.
However, the metal part of the plug is a little wider than the metal part of the plug where it plugs in.It doesn't scuff when you plug it in, and it's harder to dislodge."Her husband said.(The earlier ones sometimes came loose when plugged into a 964 or other device, and my husband used rubber bands to keep them from slipping out.)
Incidentally, it could be properly installed on an air-cooled 911.
Regarding the sound, the sound quality is not particularly better than the previous one.(A little muffled, somewhat hard to hear when listening to music or something)I'm just wondering if the color warnings on the light are easier to see... though.New enforcement points are supported, the latest GPS data can be downloaded free of charge every month, and the price is reasonable at just under 7,000 yen.So I think I would prefer to buy a new product now.

Hello. Sorry for another series of questions.
I've only driven about 500 km, but I've used a lot of things.
I will send you my impressions.
(Good point)
It is perfect for running. Acceleration is also unquestionable.
I think the best thing compared to other companies is the cornering.
It responds exactly as expected and does not take a roll at all.
The massage function exceeded my expectations. I wish I had attached it to the back seat as well.
The hardness of the seats is comfortable. I don't mind the hardness or softness while driving.
The touch panel works better than I expected. Not too confusing.
(mmmm point)
I have an underground parking lot because I live in a condominium, but when I went outside, the navigation system was not working.
Takes too long to load location information.
I drive with the steering wheel down rather low, but the rightmost side of the instrument panel's five display rows is the most important one.
(where the navigation display is available) is difficult to see. I mean, it's almost impossible to see. LOL.
I download music to my phone and listen to it, but yesterday I had a bug.
Suddenly there was no sound only music, he said. I went to the dealer to have it checked out.
This is my first case and I don't know what to make of it!" I don't understand this case at all!
I tried with other phones and the same phenomenon. My dealer is the only one in Tokyo that also has a workshop.
I have it, so the engineer came out of there and checked it out for an hour or so.
I messed around with it and suddenly it was fixed. But
He said, "We don't know the cause, and of course we don't know what to do about it. We are just observing the situation.
I think there's probably a system bug in the more involved CarPlay stuff.
I think. I hope there are no other bugs. Well, it's just the sound of music.
It has nothing to do with driving or safety, though.
The man who found the bug! So I wonder if he can give me at least one 911. BOOM!
How to support your life, Mr.
Thank you for your comment!
I can see you're enjoying your Panamera life to the fullest!
As you say, the cornering is amazing.
I still can't believe that huge body bent over like a stinger (laughs).
And yes, I do think the first navigation system is slow to load.
I didn't know there was such a thing as a bug that wasn't just the sound of music!
I've never heard of it before either...!
I'm glad it's fixed, but it's also weird not knowing the cause or why it's fixed ><
>The man who found the bug! So I wonder if he can give me at least one 911. BOOM!
I would be too happy to have such consideration (laughs).
Hello. - Hello.
Nice to meet you, my name is vonvoyage32.
I am a 964C2 rider who recently joined her husband on a tour of the Nihon-daira lawn with their cars lined up.
This article is more than a radar detector.
The location of the orbis enforcement machine and other enforcement points dropped on the map.
It is based on the GPS data of your car and alerts you when you are approaching the location.
There seems to be some new features like Zone 30.
Here is the case of my house.
I use the "Orbis Alert" app on my phone.
As long as I use it (Shikoku, Kobe - Tokyo area), it is very useful because it gives me accurate information.
The only drawback would be that the phone's battery runs low when used with GPS.
Most of them are used while powered from a cigarette lighter socket.
My apologies.

>My name is vonvoyage32. I am a 964C2 rider who joined you and your husband in the "Let's put our cars on the lawn at Nihondaira" touring event a few days ago.
Oh! Nice to meet you, and thank you for the help you gave my husband. I believe it was at the end of October, right?
And you are driving a 964C2!
>I use the "Orbis Alert" app on my phone.

Oh! Such a useful app!
However, it would be safe to use it while supplying power from a cigar socket.
I will install it as soon as possible and try it out next time.
Thank you for sharing all this great information!
Thank you for your continued support.
Hello. - Hello.
I searched with a drive recorder, but isn't it used? The article didn't seem to be there, so I'll comment on the old article.
Are you still using the GR91 radar detector? While I think that voice is enough for radar detectors,
I'm wondering if I should have a drive recorder or if I should have both functions.
If you attach an in-vehicle camera that takes pictures of driving, the inside of the car will be full of machines.
Hello.
You didn't write an article about drive recorders.
I use it, but my favorite is Cellstar's CS-71FW.
This is compact with no extra LCD screen. You can check and set the video on your smartphone, and its operation is relatively light and easy to use.
Moreover, this model is a great deal because you can get your hometown tax.
