Overview
Having been given one of these for my birthday, I finally got it into use the other day...
Very easy to set-up, and works within the minute by plugging into my slightly over needed cigarette lighter.
Technicals and views
Ideally, you need to update this via the internet once a month, to enable it to update all the new static cameras that appear like new buildings overnight.
The Snooper S3 GPS, Laser and Radar speed camera detector is one of the only systems on the market to combine all three technologies.
In essence it detects: Gatso safety cameras, Specs camera systems, Truvelo cameras, Digital cameras, accident hotspots and Laser guns!
The database seems fairly extensive (certainly round Stafford), and is updated every other day, so less of a worry with new cameras going up and leaving you slightly surprised!
With my Satnav plugged in the main lighter socket, I am 'short' of being able to charge both at the same time... never mind charging mobiles etc.

I am not sure of the longevity of this product, as keeping your eyes on the road and your speed seem a more reliable option!
Fits easily in your pocket or bag at journeys end, and plugs straight into the cigarette lighter for charging.
It seems to me to have moments of incredible laziness, where it indicates problems one way, with a very loud beep, and then goes blissfully quiet on the return journey, which is quite concerning... does it only tell you once each trip?
Have updated the review now I know a bit more about what I'm doing! Cxx

I've often wondered why people need these. If you're an observant driver like you should be then you should see the camera warning signs. Either that or just stop speeding.

Sorry for low rating but what is this product, what is it for and how do you use it? Never heard of it and review doesn't really tell me anything.........................
