  1. Re: What is the percentage of drivers using a radar detector?

    I would say 2-3%, if I had to guess. The majority of those are running low end/worthless detectors.
  2. Re: Has anyone ever modded a detector to reduce leakage detectable by Spectre?

    In the time it took you to modify your existing RD for spectre, you could have worked a part time job at McDonalds to earn enough money to buy a Redline.
  3. Re: Why is the new Passport IQ's Black instead of Silver frame edging.

    I also have an 9500ix, I would say it's equal in range.
  4. Re: Advice for First RD Purchase - Large City & Highway Driving Conditions

    The Redline with Escort Live is the ideal set up right now.
  5. Re: Why is the new Passport IQ's Black instead of Silver frame edging.

    Did you change it because the metal facing on the previous ones rusted? (like mine has)

    Rust on my Escort IQ

    I've had an IQ for about a year now (great detector and GPS btw) and the metal plate on the front of the detector is starting to show spots of rust. Has anyone else ever experienced this before?

    Re: Cheetah gps C50

    I do not have personal experience with this product, but most people have told me it's by far superior to anything else on the market in terms of photo and red light detection. This is just what...

    Re: need help making final decision

    I do not recommend the 9500ci at all. I would plead you to get the Bel Sti-R and get either a Blinder or Laser Interceptor jammer. The LI is the best unit on the market, according to most of the...

    Re: Buying a radar detector HELP!!

    If it breaks it will cost at least $75 to fix at Escort, so buy at your own risk. A new one will come with a warranty....and less germs.
  10. Re: Pulled over for flashing on-coming vehicles

    I'm surprised you were not ticketed for indecent exposure. :D
  11. Re: Mixed driving locations -- 9500ix or STi Magnum?

    9500ix. Anything else will drive you nuts in any decent sized city.
  12. Re: Help me choose the best detector for my needs

    Redline if you're rural, 9500ix if you live in a city.

    Poll: Re: V1 or Redline

    I'd sell the V1 because the Redline is a superior detector. If I wanted a false signal detector, I'd keep the V1.

    Re: City vs Suburbs vs Country

    I have a lot of experience driving in Chicago and the suburbs, even on the highway, I think are going to have a lot of false signals.

    Re: Is it Really Worth It?

    It depends on your area. Where I live, there are still plenty of police using radar.

    But in an ideal world every cop would use laser and we'd all just buy laser jammers and never get tickets.

    Poll: Re: POLL: Run V1 and RL Together?

    I'm glad someone on here is making some sense instead of being a fanboy about V1.

    Redline is a better detector, hands down.

    Re: Redline better than V1?

    I know it's a great detector, the question is, is it better than the Redline? Because why buy the V1, when the Redline is just a little better?

    The V1 is a great detector, but it there is a problem when researching this detector. Many people here and on review websites give the V1 way more credit than what's due simply because they like...

    Re: Need some help deciding...

    I would avoid the Whistler.

    The 995 is going to be your best value. But if you want a bit better performance and do not mind spending the money, I would stick with the 8500.

    Re: V1 or x50 question

    OP, why not consider the Redline?

    It performs better than the V1 and has less false signals.

    Re: Higher End Bands Are Being Used More & More

    It would be my dream come true if police only used laser.

    Everyone would just buy laser jammers and we'd never worry about a ticket again.

    Re: Need some helping with V995 pricing

    If anyone is selling this product for less than what we sell it for, they are NOT an authorized reseller, even if they claim it. Call Bel and ask.

    Do your homework first.

    Re: Thinking of buying a 9500ix

    That's a trade off because you're giving up auto-filtering.
  24. Re: V1 + M45 or Passport 9500ci in Cayenne Turbo with Adpative Cruise Control

    Agreed. The 9500ci is overpriced and overrate. The laser jammers on that unit are substandard and I think give Escort a bad rap. Escort is a great company and it's a shame their jammer is not...
