  1. Thinking about selling V1 for STI-R+

    I've been driving with a V1 3.872 for almost a year and 20k miles now and allowed me to save a lot of travel time ticket free. I drive in NC mostly, with trips to SC often. I run with X, pop, and Ka...

    Poll: Re: V1 or Redline

    I had both and sold the Redline. Went for $420 on eBay and got it for $300 new (in a package deal).
  4. Re: I have a 9500ix. Do I need Escort Live?

    If you want gps and your detector already has it I would not get live if it was me. With your detector you put it on your windshield and plug it in when you get in your car. Reverse that when you get...

    Re: Unmarked cars in NC

    Hmm, guess I forgot about these... they also use the newer suburbans. Saw a black one which was very easy to spot the blue lights inside the windshield. Saw a white one around Burlington but had...
  6. Re: Help me decide what Radar Detector to get

    Always a huge debate on choosing between Redline and V1. You don't drive in VA so I think that makes the decision easier. If I were you I'd save $140 and go with the V1. You can read about the...
  7. Re: Using the Valentine 1 with Redline issues and recommendations

    My suggestion, don't do it. I ran them together for 3 months and over 10k miles. They were as far apart as they could be.

    The Redline was super quiet. Never alerted to anything but constant on....

    For me I don't think I would find the cancelling...

    The main reason for trying the escort live, for me, is the truelock and defender database. If this brings my redline a little closer to the 9500ix as far as features then it is already worth it to...

    Exactly. Unless we see the retail process that...

    Yeah $140's a no go. $80 is probably the top limit that they can charge and expect enough people to buy it for it to work. Still bothers me they won't say what the subscription fee is... probably...
  10. Re: Would you compromise safety for stealth?

    I have halogen DRLs that I disconected just cus I think it looks dumb driving with your lights on during a bright sunny day. I agree it makes it harder for a Leo to notice you from a distance so...

    Re: Unmarked cars in NC

    I looked at pictures I see the antenna now, above the driver. I did take a picture of the unmarked and it does not have one. Also looks like a lot of them come with roof rails. The unmarked one...

    How often do belscorts false on Ka? And isn't it only from moving cobra users? If so i wouldn't be too concerned about an occasional Ka false showing up that would quickly go away as the next live...

    Re: 8500 X50 Disappointed

    After you told Escort you think its broken and they said no it sounds fine, was that it? Did you say, thank you but I'd like to send it in anyway just to make sure? Or were you too pissed that they...
  15. Re: What detector to change to from my 9500ix? Redline, V1, the choices!

    Get the one that you choose after your research and weighing the pros and cons of each choice.

    Didn't think about that. Do the stock suburbans come with black wheels mirrors and door handles, and dark tint on front windows? I don't think they do so that's a give away its probably a cop.

    Unmarked cars in NC

    I don't know if anyone else on here drives around Greensboro, or the surrounding areas bit I've noticed more tricky unmarked LEOs lately...

  19. Re: Is turning off X and K band a good idea?

    3 lines is laser. If you have the volume up it makes more of a siren noise. After the alert do you ever see a stationary Leo? Lot of laser falses are out there now though. I pick up infinitis with...

    Re: Why use cobra

    You really have to go spend $65 on a bushnell, it will make driving with Ka guard off Mich more tolerable, even fun at times.

    Like was said earlier, a lot of people don't care to do any further...
  21. Re: Escort Live, is it just me, or is it a bit gimmicky? Anyone else disappointed?

    Can it talk back to the detector to basically give the false filtering function of the 9500 to all escort detectors by using the smartphones gps to filter known falses?

    Re: V1 upgrade from 3.872?

    Not trying to spoil anything but without hard numbers from testing I feel like a lot of the comments about increased range are just placebo effect. Yes I could be wrong but this happens all the time...
  23. Re: Has anyone had your detector alert when...

    Happened to me a few days ago driving to work where new road construction is going on. V1 pointed to the sign so I didn't have to wonder, but thought it was pretty odd.
  24. Re: First LI Save - finally confirmed my unit works!

  25. Re: First LI Save - finally confirmed my unit works!

    Sounds like a fun drive. I always look a few years down the road at what weekend car I'm gonna buy. Lately the Elise seems like the perfect fit for me. I've been reading the lotustalk forums a good...
