    Re: My Escort Live impressions and review

    I have been using the Live Cord for a couple weeks. It has a connection issue with my 9500ix causing power interuptions. The green light stays on at the power outlet, but the detector turns on and...
  2. Re: Trying to decide: Escort 9500ix Vs Escort Redline Vs Valentine 1

    From a newbie, I'll plug the 9500ix. It has been fantastic in the 3 (or so) months I've had it. Already earned its keep and paid for itself. I live in an area with lots of speed/red light cams at...

    Question - Northern California and Nevada

    I have some driving to do in these states with a rental. I'm very reluctant to even use my spanking new 9500ix, I'd be..some choked..to have it confiscated.

    Could someone please give me a risk...

    Cruising along, 20 over (that's in Kee...lometers) yesterday. Came over a rise to a Mountie with I/O KA. My spanking new 9500ix went bananas, braked, skated right by.

    A LEO friend of mine suggests taking a Fridge Magnet (preferably a kiddies one) and modifiying a digit. Make a "0" an "8" etc.

    Re: Just purchased a used 9500IX off of ebay.

    With the $80 trade-in Escort is offering (go to a pawn shop and buy a 30 year old RD for 5 bucks,) plus they were offering the $50 free accessory kit.

    You could get the 9500ix for $370, brand new.
  9. Sticky: Re: Trapster Speed Trap Sharing System for mobile phones!

    Thanks for that, I did some further research and gave it a go on my BB. I subscribe to a limited (500mb) data plan, so was a bit concerned about the usage.

    It worked very well and it has more...

    Hi Sean:

    I'm hooked on Trapster on my Garmin, awesome product.

    A couple questions.

    I don't see where to change the alert distance for the Garmin?

    For fun I loaded it on my BB, however...

    Re: Driving in China

    In over 10 years of going to China, I have never seen an accident. Coincidence with a smattering of good luck, but that's the case.

    For the most part, they are pretty damn good at it. I know I...

    Re: Extended Warranty Question

    Thank-you for the quick reply. Since I get 90 days of free updates, maybe I'll wait?

    It will give the 'war dept' time to calm down from the original purchase. Told her it was equal to "one" of...

    Re: Radarbusters.com International Shipping

    Here's the kicker, for what it's worth.

    "UPS" and Fed Ex" charge exorbitant broker fees, whereas "USPS" (United States Postal Service) doesn’t'.

    As a guy who does a fair bit of Internet...

    Re: Travel Case for 9500ix

    Thanks, I picked this one up for $13 at a camping store.

    Garmin 010-10117-02...not at 15 post yet...can't do a link.

    Fits the 9500ix nicely, felt lined but no room for cable or mount.

    Re: Can somebody explain Trapster to me?

    No, just a certain type of beep. Same if you were to put any type of other point of interest on the Garmin[/QUOTE]

    Thanks, I gave it a go yesterday. I was suitably impressed.

    I'm new to RD's, but have been using GPS and Sat Radio for years. My own view, is leave nothing in sight, including cords and suction mounts.

    Extended Warranty Question

    I am generally not a fan of Extended Warranties, just cash grabs IMO.

    But, I'm re-thinking it here. Partly because it included 36 months of Database Updates. Which I suspect a guy will end up...

    Re: Going to Canada for 2 weeks

    Thanks, that answers my question. If you are tagged by a RDD - the gig is up?

    I'll have to ask some Cop'er friends, regarding the legal ability to search your vehicle.

    Re: Going to Canada for 2 weeks

    So, how does this shake out in jurisdictions where RD's are illegal? Buddy knows you have it (RDD) but you've tucked it away in your wife's purse.

    Now what? For future reference.
