Is there much of a difference in file size between downloading the UK database and the European one?
If I load the European one, will it have an effect on my refresh rate? _________________ TT Go 720 (T)

I hope I not breaching any rules by posting the following:
Quote: | Format: UK - Single file with all cameras
Download Size: 164kb |
Quote: | Format: EUR - Single file with all cameras
Download Size: 86kb |
If you're subscribed, you realise that you can try out as many downloads as you like? _________________ Jock

So if I download both what will happen? Can I load both into TomTom? Will the UK cameras interfere with each other? If I download just the European one, then I am stuck with kph while driving here?
Nothing is ever straightforward is it. _________________ TT Go 720 (T)

The 2 sets of files won't interfere with each other because they will be in different locations.
Also, they don't actually warn you of the speed of the camera detection, only the location of the camera. It makes no difference whether you are using mph or kph.
The only time there will be a serious hit on the refresh rate, is if you Enable them, instead of using Warn When Near.
Someone else was contemplating using both recently and Here he lists his settings for the kph cameras. _________________ Richard
