Yes, when they develop something new, old units are upgradable for a fee. For example, you can send back an old V1 to get the latest electronics to improve range or add laser detection.

Ticket, what ticket? Haven't gotten one ever since buying a V1 several years ago...[/b]
V1 does not upgrade it for free (at least not all of them). My V1 is the last model rev before a bigger (hardware I think) change and it was something like $180 IIRC to send mine in and have a new one sent back to me. The differences with the new models aren't anything that interest me so I don't plan on doing it. I've got laser and I don't have a problem with my range, so it's no biggie. Nor do I need Ku detection (don't plan on being in Europe any time soon). I think the cost to upgrade depends on how far from current you are.

You can go to their site and plug in your serial number to get the quote.
