  2. Re: Just picked up the ESCORT PASSPORT 8500 X50 BLACK!

    Escort 8500 X50 Black still like it in 2017, don't know how well it would do against low power K and Ka radar? Impressed with the test results of Uniden R1 and R3 and decided to purchase Uniden R3.

    Also recommend POP on with POP off there is a possibility of missing K band quick trigger and possible Ka. Why take the chance?

    Re: Buying a V1?

    I get better response time with POP on and have Ka guard off. Certain cruise control can set off the V1 laser warning, glad you like it.

    Re: V1 and quick trigger radar

    Firmware updated as well. Want V1 owners to beware of this. POP off is causing the slowing of reaction time on the V1.

    Re: V1 and quick trigger radar

    Got a tune up less then 6 months ago. Not a tune up issue. POP off slows down the reaction time of the Valentine. Purchased in 2008.
