    1. was meant to say “win anything” or something.

  42. Any of these would be sweet to have. Hope I’m on the list. Thanks to all who made this possible.

  43. Dashcam would be sweet!

  44. Thank you so muck

  45. This giveaway is awesome. Thank you for helping me make the choice to get a R3. I think now it would just be fantastic to have a dash cam as well!

  46. Love your content

  47. Would love to get a radar detector for my daughter. Driving home from school would be safer.

  48. Hello Again,
    Well I have of course done everything you have directed me to do with my ALP all 6 heads (2 TX sensors in the center-front & Rear) and my R3 on the blend mount. Also your guidance and session helping my installers with ALP and proper best setting for my R3 has been a real game changer.
    All that said next would be a DASH CAM so the Blackvue speaks to me as you have made it your fav.

    Ive been a very good driver this year and have recommended you so many times to to others due to the excellent results of your sound advice and passionate research.

    Hope Santa thinks as well and I get one in my VORTEX STOCKING as a winner 😀

  49. Good luck to everyone. Hope I can win the Uniden R3 ?

  50. Thanks again for all your hard work!
    The Antilaser Priority would be awesome!
    Happy holidays!

  51. This is an awesome way to get the public involved and let them know what your about. I would like to win the M1, but i would be happy with anything, or not anything, just being able to be involved is fun

  52. I would be happy with any of the items your offering… hehehehheheh Except the cup.. HA! I have plenty of those.
    I’m too broke to afford any of those products.. 🙁

    btw, thanks a bunch. I really enjoy your youtube channel.

  53. Thank You

  54. Great info found here! Love to watch your videos on new and up coming technology.
    R3 or Blackvue D900S would be nice.

  55. Uniden r3 or laser jammers would be a merry merry chChristmas

  56. Unidentifiable R3

  61. Thanks for all of your informative videos! I bought a Uniden R3 after watching your video. Love it. Replaced my Valentine One.

  62. Congrats on your marriage! Thanks for the great giveaway. I am hoping to win those laser jammers 🙂

  63. Appreciate all your work! Been a follower for awhile now and one of the BV900 heat issue reporters.

  64. Thanks for all your videos. Merry Christmas

  65. Thanks for all the info you provide. Very enjoyable to watch!

  66. R3 will be nice…

  67. R3 for me please. Thank you

  68. Been wanting a Uniden R3 knowing I was going to move from Albuquerque to San Antonio. Having lived here before it is sometimes wise to set your Cruise Control to posted speed limits be it highway, improved roadways where speeds are 45mph or residential. The Uniden R3 would at least eliminate that!

  69. I bought a Uniden R3 with your honest review of the product. I’m very happy with it.
    If I were to win anything it would be the AntiLaser Priority that would round out my protection.

    Keep up the good work that you do!
    Have a Merry Christmas!

  70. I need the Uniden R3 to save my butt from getting a speeding ticket here in San Antonio, Texas. What a great Christmas present to find under my tree.

  71. i have the uniden r3 so anything elce will work

  72. neat

  73. I hope I win the anti laser, I got a ticket, while running Max 360. Need Anti laser or Dash Cam

  74. I want to win the Uniden R3

  75. ThinkWare!

  76. ThinkWare please…

    Oh, and happy holidays as well!

  77. Aww man, great stuff!
    Vortex always ahead of the curve, i love this lil corner of the web.

  78. I love those Radar detectors

  79. R3 or Blackvue DR900 would be nice!

    Thanks.

  80. I’m sure you’ve saved lots of your followers money and big headaches with your channel. Very informative videos your doing. Well done.

  81. Awesome job Vortex. You are a blessing to others. I would love to win the R3. I still have a LRD950. I’m also a RDF Member Dreyzx10r. HAPPY HOLIDAYS to you and your new wife.

  82. Thank you for your time and effort. Honda/Acura and Chryslers are making my old Sti Magnum crazy! Its like getting hit with K band instant on! Please help. Radenso for me.

  83. I have found your videos so helpful and informative. Thank you very much.

    With your guidance, I purchased a Uniden R3 and it has already saved me money. But this raises a question about your giveaway. Is there a way for me to select which prizes I would like to use my entries for? Obviously, I have no need for a radar detector, but I sure could use a laser detector or a dashcam.

  84. Happy Holidays Votex. Been following you for awhile. Your advice and knowledge is legit. I’m a big fan of Uniden. My DFR7 stop functioning couple of months ago for no reason. It works very well here in WA. The R3 is the obvious choice.

  85. I would love a detector to introduce my son to the world of radar detectors.

  86. Thanks for all you do. Would love a new Uniden.

  87. Appreciate you doing stuff like this . Hope the machine randomly picks me for an R3. Would really help my foot get a little heavier and have to worry about the fuzz as much. Waze isn’t always on it with the cops. I’ve marked plenty of them for others but in the early am there arent really many others out and about. My gut usually keeps me on my toes though. But an R3 would make life easier. Lol. Thanks again

  88. Love your channel and how informative and unbiased you are! Keep up the good work, looking forward to see what 2019 has to bring.

  89. Beggars cab not be choosers but the radar detectors would be useful to me… Dashcam scares me…

    I have to see how my wife is driving….

    Oh I am so dead for that!

    Merry Christmas everyone and thank you for all your hard work.

  90. I would really really really really REALLY! want the Anti laser ??

  91. all of them just scream happy

  92. Pro M for wife car,,, She complains my DSP is always calling out CAVE MAN “k-band”

  93. Awesome and very generous giveaway. Thank you for providing us with information and comparisons on the best products.

  94. I would love any Escort or Radenso XP since that is cords I already have set up in my cars.

  95. Uniden R3 for me please.

  96. Thank you so much. R3 for me.

  97. Enjoy watching your informative reviews. Hoping for R3 or Blackvue DR900s-2ch!

  98. Been a subscriber on Youtube for a while, just signed up for the Newsletter. ALP for me please as I need something to compliment the R1!

  99. I did both of the twitter requirements but am not getting credit for it. Not sure what is up with that. Following and tweeted a few times now. Just letting you know I’m having an issue with that. Thanks

  100. I’d like to win 1 of everything, then I would give my family and friends goodies from you

  101. Winning anything from Vortex Radar would be sweet! Much better than winning the leg lamp from the Christmas Story movie, that for sure! But, If I could really pick from the gift bag, I’d like to have the Radenso Pro M, because MRCD is a real big deal in my area…. Vortex Radar said it was the best on MRCD detection and his opinion is good enough for me!

  102. Blackvue DR900S-2CH & Power Magic EZ

  103. goodluck to us! congratulation to the winners next year!

  104. Thank you for the chance to win a radar dedector.

  105. R3 or Blackvue DR900S-2CH & Power Magic EZ Please!!!

  106. Watch youtube channel all the time, would like escort ixc and m1 to upgrade from 9500ix.. Wish I had a dash cam when I was in accident in Nov.

  107. thank you for all your effore and giving back

  108. thanks for all of your great videos. I’d love to have the uniden r3 or the radenso pro M 😀

    Thank you for doing this

  110. R3 for me! Well we can all hope!

  111. I have really enjoyed your cometary on the many evaluations on radar makes. I’m especially interested in radar jammers. I remember way back when the Jammers where the under ground apparatus to build.
    I can’t believe that now one can buy one over the counter !

    1. Radar jammers are still highly illegal. Laser jammers, like the one being given away here, are a different story. Those you can buy over the counter, but not radar jammers. 🙂

      1. Nice

        1. Merry Christmas

  112. Hey Vortex! a secondary radar detector or my first dash cam PLEASE!!! Also, keep up the good work your input to the community is so helpful…

  113. R3 please.

  114. A R3 would be of great use.

  115. Thanks to you I am back using a radar detector after 20 years without one!

  116. I want that antilaser. Super handy & it just sounds cool lol.

  117. Thanks for the time and hard work!

  118. Any radar dectector is greatly needed. I cannot afford for my insurance rates to go up.

  119. I’m liking the GPS on the Radenso Pro M & XP

  120. I would love any Escort or Radenso XP since that is cords I already have set up in my cars.

  122. i love your channel. i am looking fir a good radar detector ans money is an issue. i don’t have a lot to soend. i want gps. and web app capable. escort s75g or uniden r3. and valentine 1

    1. all i have now is a crappie cobra 360 16 channel. so many false alarms. drives me crazy

  123. love your channel very informative. i am looking for a good radar detector without braking the bank. maybe a escort s75g, uniden r3, valentine 1

  124. Very informative on all products. I think I’d prefer the Uniden R3 for my driving use.

  125. I love your detailed analysis on all of the equipment. Thank you as it really helps to understand which units are the best and how we can best protect ourselves. Keep up the great work….. Dave

  126. Radenso Pro M for me please

  127. I really wish to win the AntiLaser Priority, good luck everyone :).

  128. An Uniden R3 would really help me out.

  129. i appreciate the giveaway. however i couldnt wait so i got the uniden R3 and mirror mount. but i could always use a camera or laser module. or a valentine 1. He He
    *<[ ; ¬)

  130. For me the Dashcam set from Blackvue would be great…

  140. your awesome channel savex me from two big tickets Christmas day in South Florida . the R3 gave me plenty of time to slooow down . I had an old cobra piece of gunk before. its like I cant even give it away. no one even wants it.
    ROFLMFAO
    my friends call me Ron K4GET is my ham radio call sign. have a safe new year

  141. Mr Vortex Radar, winning anything from you would be great but, if I could pick, it would most definitely be the Radenso Pro M because in my area, MRCD combined with Red light cameras have become a real big deal now and as you stated, the Radenso Pro M was good at MRCD detection.
    Your truly a Radar Wizard in my book! The Best Consumer Report on Radar & Laser Technology! Your reviews are outstanding and nobody else does it better…. I deeply appreciate the hard work and effort you put into every review and podcast on You Tube. Thanks for everything and Happy New Year to you and yours.

  142. R3 please, Thanks for all you do!

  143. Uniden R3

  144. i love your reviews and channel.
    witch is the best budget dashboard camera?

  145. I really need good quality dash cam not only for incidents on the road but also for short film making. But they’re expansive and the ones I can afford isn’t good for filming.

    Regardless, happy holidays to everyone. Taking a big hike to film the fireworks on New Years Eve!

  146. Uniden R3 please, it’ll go perfect for my ZL1.

    1. Thanks

    2. When are they announcing the winners

  147. Uniden R3 please. It will go perfect with my new ZL1

  148. AntiLaser Priority Laser Jammer would be a blessing…..lol. But would be happy with anything really.

  149. I’d love the blackvue dashcam! Or a laser jammer! Or anything! Thanks for the awesome giveaway

  150. 5 hours left! Come on Uniden R3. Big bucks, big bucks, no whammies! Thanks Vortex Radar!

  151. Woohoo! Who won?!

  152. No results?

  153. Did anyone get an email saying they won? Maybe the winners were already emailed… ? I can’t recall ever winning a raffle in my life, so this would be par for the course.

    1. I just finished selecting the winners now and am emailing people now as wel speak. Over 3,000 people entered. I wish I could give something to everyone.
      🙂

  154. I don’t think they posted the winner results yet.

    1. nah, I have to tell it to select the winners after I wake up in the morning. It doesn’t automatically do it at 12am. 🙂

    2. Wish I would have entered and more so, WON.

  155. Nothing comes for free! So this whole thing was a scam most likely. But I do like the channel.

    1. Scam? Interesting. The winners are now posted on the website. Thanks for the comment though and Happy New Year Ben!

  156. Has anybody won anything? Where are the winners?

    1. They are all posted on the website.

  157. I agree. It does seem like a scam.

    1. Note: “Winners will be randomly selected by Gleam”
    2. “I just finished selecting the winners now and am emailing people”

    Do the people on the “winning entries” list exist?

    1. Yes. They were randomly selected by Gleam yesterday and are all listed right on the website. Please look at the Gleam entry area and you’ll see all the winners. It seems like it’s not loading for certain people so I’ll copy and paste them into the giveaway page again.
