    Good Points: Picks up static cameras but the unit needs constant updating


    Bad Points: An awful product - look around before you buy!


    General comments: I've owned a Road angel 2 for a good while now (over a year) and I have to be completly honest here, it has to be one of the worst products in this line you can possibly buy.

    You have to leave it anything upto 20 mins on the roof of the car to pick up a satellite signal, or splash out £30 on a extra antenna - which works approximately 50% of the time

    The laser / radar system fails utterly to pick up any mobile vans / units (I must have driven past at least a dozen this year alone - and not a whisper) and the laser alert goes off whenever you chance to drive over something bumpy

    If you want something that detects static cameras via GPS and you have money to burn then buy one - if not there are far superior models on the market for the same money or less, or just buy a satnav

    The Road Angel 2 is a brilliant piece of kit. Had now for over 6 months and so far as not let me down. I have not gone past a static camera without it being detected. Very easy to download updates. The only downside to it is that it is quite expensive.

    I have had the Road Angel 2 for a long time now & would not consider driving without it. It gives you plenty of warning for cameras & tells you your real speed, which means no more sudden slowing at a camera site. You do bemoan all those drivers without that suddenly brake for cameras (at times causing accidents) little realizing that they are often slowing to a much slower speed than they need to. Thus this unit reduces accidents & improves fuel economy.
    The database is clearly provided by the ...

    I have just read the review that was moaning about getting a speeding ticket from a mobile camera even though he had bought a Road Angel 2. Well, it does exactly what it says on the box, which is probably his problem, failing to read the box before buying.
    It does not pick up mobile cameras with its GPS database. It cannot. The police do have to advertise in advance where they are going to be but as this information is usually given as a road number and not a precise location it can't be pinpo ...

    I used the Road Angel 2 system for 1 week. Downloading was a nightmare, the staff were not too helpful and then to top things off I received a speeding fine from a fixed camera on a bend which I didn't know was there Ok I was speeding and that's my fault but surely the purpose of this hunk of junk was to provide pre warning to the camera location. I have since found that my Road Angel comes in handy as a door stop, a paper weight or a toy to throw for the dog to fetch back. I am playing with the ...

    The Road Angel in my opinion is not worth the money (£350 to £399). The Road Angel was registered and updated as per instructions but simply did not detect the cameras as claimed. I travel around the country in my job and in the two days that I owned the Road Angel, covered about 600 miles. First trip to Norfolk and passed about six cameras, Road Angel detected about three gatso's and went past a mobile camera without detection and went past a couple of gatso's without detection. Sec ...

    I am a travelling salesman and do a lot of miles each year as a result of this I knew it would be just a matter of time until the inevitable speeding ticket. So I purchased a new Road Angel and fitted it. In the two days that followed I covered about 600 miles and encountered about 20 various types of speed camera. The unit only picked up about four of them which I thought was totally useless. One of the functions is to enter your own speed camera location. If it does not pick it up then why am ...

    On my first trip from the West Country to Manchester using non motorway routes the Road Angel 2 GPS Speed Camera Detector picked up all the cameras, schools and accident black spots.
    Mine was equipped with a laser detector and therefore does pick up the mobile installations.

    I mounted mine in an L200 4x4 pickup and due to the additional instrument console mounted centrally on the dash I perched my Angel on top of this. I expect that I will need the additional laser sensors for the front and ...

    The Road Angel 2 GPS Speed Camera Detector unit picks up cameras that don't exist which is irritating enough but the main issue I have is that I have just received a speeding ticket from a mobile camera. I bought the unit not just for fixed speed cameras (as in more cases than not they are very visable) but for mobile cameras and speed guns and after paying £400 one would expect the unit to pick up signals from both of these but obviously not. Extremely disappointed. I advise just to buy a ...
