Free of False Laser Alert with Radar Detector?

For those who have Valentine One/V1 Gen2,

Do you guys still get frequent false laser alerts from the gesture control?

I just had a V1 Gen1 just hardwired, and I'm at the point that it gets so annoying from false alarms, I just want to throw it away...

Like other guys recommended, I tried to block out the gesture control unit with some tapes, and block out the small red circle on the V1 display, and it's better but not perfect.

I hear good things about Uniden detectors nowadays. I don't know they are a better choice in terms of eliminating false alarms?

Any recommendation would be appreciated.

I didn't like it, but if you don't mind wires in your sight of driving, this setup(2nd photo) works fine without any false laser alerts. lol
