In the top of the tank bag I could see the V1, so when the VA went off I'd glance down, and nothing. The false alerts were all VA, not V1.

Here is the V1 Audio Remote:
IMHO, less wires is better - not because they tend to be a PIA, but there are so many more single points of failure...Not so long ago my setup included my GPS, Sat Radio and Radar all feeding into an Electric Ave. Apmlirider - this worked great when it worked, but it was complicated and weighed a ton.
I now use a two pronged approach:
1)The HARD system has been perfect for me so far, and it has never given a false alarm.
B) When the HARD indicates radar, I glance down at my V1 remote indicator mounted on my dash for type any other info that is available through the V1 when it is setup in my cage.
I have yet to disable my X band. Although I still occasionally get false alerts near box stores or strip malls, when it does go off it usually indicates a busy area that either cops might be around, or clueless cages might be pulling out of. More than anything, false X alerts are a render to slow down for my own safety.
