Yup, you read it correctly--I don't know what I have.
I just purchased a used car (2007) that came with an "Escort SR7+". I didn't pay anything extra for the Escort, so I consider it simply "icing on the cake".
But, I'm curious what it really is. I don't believe the SR7+ designation is correct, as I don't find this used often in my Google searching. Although I do see some occurrences of its use here.
It was advertised by the seller as a "laser jammer", but as I understand it the SR7 does not inherently have "laser jamming" capability, unless you addon.
Perhaps a description will help:
o small, slender control unit with front display mounted in the glove compartment
o small single LED (two color-red/green) mounted on steering column
o two front sensors mounted/concealed in the front bumper
o one rear sensor mounted at the top of the rear license plate
o small, clickable control button (volume/mute) conceal mounted within reach of driver
When the unit is turned on, it reads on the display (in part), "shifting ON" and "laser N/A" (or something close to that
).
Is this just a SR7 unit without laser "jamming" capability? If so, is it safe to call it "just" a radar detector and as such is undetectable by LEOs?
Is it worth running the SR7 in concert with my Valentine 1?
Thanks!!
