Probably not, but at least there is a Buy option with lots of delivery country options on their website. Not sure about
https://eu.igpsport.com/de-de/products/sr-mini
To my German location it even had free delivery.

This is the international listing that ships from china for slightly cheaper. As someone else mentioned elsewhere, IGPSport definitely has a disadvantage in serch results. Many of their products are not findable from a simple search, you first need to get to their store page.
~84€ with coupons for me is getting very tempting
Another positive for me compared to magene is the app. It's the same as the app for their computers. Magene had a (shitty) app for their computer, and another even shittier app for their radar
I don't know how I feel about their provided mount on the saddle. The magene one isn't perfect but I have a bike with the saddle so far forward I can't clamp anything on it.
Would also love to know how good the computer integration is. I can't display more info on my IGS630 from my L508 (which performed horrible on today's ride with many many false positives and one unforgiveable false negative) like battery status (much needed), light mode and vehicle speed

They've supposedly completely changed their detection algorithm since that video so it might be outdated? I hope Petr can give us an updated review soon. I don't hate my L508 but the battery life is poor, and since IME IGPSport puts magene to shame when it comes to GPS unit battery life I'm hoping the same remains true for their radars
I'm not sure if you are referring to me, but I've just finished the written review, which will go live next week. In short, I'm surprised that the SR mini was accurate and gave the fewest false positives among Asian radars. However, the detection occurs about as quickly as on Varia, meaning the 160m detection range was not achieved. Also, the battery life is a bit short. But overall, I'm mostly surprised (considering how bad the SR30 performed after one firmware update). :-)

so will you recommend to purchase it? What was the battery life?
I am considering it over varia, as it is cheaper.

I would recommend it at this point. Looks great, good, firm mount, bright light - esp. compared to Magene.
Also connected with a person from them on WeChat about the German light situation - the blinking can be disabled already with an iGPSport head unit, but app option is on their road map (in Germany, it's forbidden that mounted lights blink at all - which this radar does)

I made a German video about it, comparing it to Magene L508.


Stationary warn range (bike not moving at the side of the road) is about 120m, but if you are moving it's a little bit more, more like 150m, even the "car" dot on my Wahoo is outside the lane when it gets red.

False positives almost none! I had like 1 in 300km now on an iron passenger bridge, Caveat: I am not riding a lot on roads though, prefer bike paths.
False negatives: nothing that stood out, of course there are "late" warnings when the cars are driving really fast (this is germany, so 120km/h on a road is kind of normal...). Also motorbikes had been warned, but with less distance.

Cyclplus L7 can turn off the blinking
I do experience false positives, but then the dot isn't moving, so it doesn't matter

If you don't mind the short battery life (~8.5 hours in day flash), then yes.

Is this not better than the L508 in your opinion? I get around that in radar only mode, flashing only on detection

I would say the SR Mini is better than Magene L508 or Gardia R300L, as it gave me fewer false positives. Basically, only about 3 within 20 hours of use.

I meant in terms of battery life only. I get false negatives and a lot of false positives with my L508 but I can deal with that. It's the shitty battery that makes me want to sell it the most

8.5 h in flashing mode sounds way better than my L508, feels like it's more like 5 h for me. Heavily considering switching to this one.

I bought the sr mini, no issue work like a charm with my Garmin 1040. Only got 1 false positive, but it was a strange situation a car leaving a parking spot on the side of the road. Overall very happy with it. I recommend. Next I will see if I can connect it at the same time to both my Garmin and the wife bsc200

Anyone able to compare this to the Bryton Gardia 300L?
