Escort 9500CI True Lock K Band Miss 3rd Time

[happya$$]

Well today my 9500CI missed an IO K band hit due to the area being locked out from a previous time. Luckily my V1 alerted me to the IO hit. To those that say Auto Lock works well then all I have to say is that you do not live in an area that uses K and X band heavily!

Yeah but you didn't get a ticket...so i don't see the problem

I did not get a ticket because my V1 alerting me to it! That road USED to be 25mph PSL but changed to 35,ph about 3 years ago. I average about 45mph on this road and I was doing that speed today

Truelock is the most idiotic feature I've seen on a radar detector.

You buy a radar detector to DETECTOR radar but you have another feature to block it? Really stupid.

If it has failed twice before, why do you still have it on? Doesn't seem like the best decision.

I've left it off since day one, I'll always believe I'm smarter than anything Escort will make.

Because I run my V1 too so this gives me a chance to see how broke True Lock is without the risk of a ticket

I like truelock even though i think its broken since my city only uses Ka and when i travel nothing is locked out but i definably wouldn't use it if my city had K or x band, I like that it keeps my rd silent and i don't like turning K band on and off when i go to another city. That was a nice i/o trap since most people wouldn't realize it was a cop. How did you know it wasn't just a door opener on the v1? Shouldn't the v1 have been alerting to door openers?

I disagree with your opinion. I use it all the time and love it. I get that it's not for you and that's cool, but it is for some.

bockr brings up an interesting question. Was your V1 alerting to the locked out false alert?
