Not heard great things about the Road Angle kit navi units TBH, but we recently fitted a Snooper Syrius for a customer and he loves it.

I've got a RA Navigator 6000 and it works just fine for me. £170, no cp0mplaints, does exactly what its meant to

Just switched from Origin b2 to a Road Angel 6000.

Very impressed so far except that it sometimes classes some A roads as motorways when they aint.

I use a Garmin GPS with "Safety Camera" databases. I always wondered how it would locate mobile cameras, but I guess they cover the area where it's been reported.
If you choose a location list rather than a detector then be prepared to be amused - currently it is warning me of a camera on Park Square, Sheffield that traps at 2mph: I think I'd be in more trouble at that speed!

GPS systems warn about mobile cameras by noting their location, nothing more. So there will be a database category of locations where vans are often parked, and that's the warning you get. It's not done by any kind of detection.
