Talex Achieves 'Recommended' Status In Auto Express Group Test

TALEX, the UK’s most affordable voice-based safety camera warning system, is one of only two ‘plug and play’ units to be recommended by Auto Express in a recent test 2 of 11 GPS-based safety camera locator systems. The test involved reviewing each unit’s ability to detect both fixed and mobile camera sites. Marks were also awarded for features such as a GPS speed check, clarity of voice warnings and the data update subscription period included with each unit, as well as the cost of then extending the subscription.

The TALEX unit was praised as a "brilliant debut for a new name at a good price" and the unit’s clear voice warnings and GPS speedometer were noted as useful features. Auto Express also recommended TALEX as being "ideal for those buyers on a tight budget".

Costing just £249 (including VAT), TALEX is an affordable alternative to other systems costing between £350 and £500, yet provides all the features and benefits associated with more costly units. Taking less than a minute to install, the system warns drivers of both fixed and mobile safety camera sites, accident black spots, nearby schools and congestion charging zones. Each unit is supplied with six months’ subscription for updates downloaded from the TALEX website, which can be renewed for just £29 for 12 months, or £59 for three years - again, much cheaper than most other GPS-based systems on the market.

TALEX can be purchased from selected retailers, online at www.talex.co.uk

"The achievement of ‘recommended’ status from Auto Express is a fantastic endorsement for TALEX and confirms our philosophy of making the latest GPS-based safety camera detection technology available to all motorists," comments Nigel Carter, Sales and Marketing Director of TALEX. "Recent reports of temporary safety cameras on the A27 at Falmer, East Sussex, capturing around 12,500 speeding motorists and generating fines of £750,000 in just two months, are a powerful reminder of the need for drivers to remain vigilant at all times. TALEX enables motorists to ensure they stay safe and legal on the road, at a price that won’t break the bank."
