Oh and I almost forgot, I mounted both units where I usually run them on the road, right below the RVM on my chevy pickup, so about 6ft off the ground....
Sorry I posted last night at work and didnt have time to do a full rundown.
I only did testing at short distances (<500ft) because the parking lot wasnt bigger than that and I havent gotten a...
So where I am working this summer, I managed to get my hands on a Laser Atlanta Advantage range finder. Looks exactly like their current speed laser models but yellow with black rubber end caps as...
Thats just something you have to put up with on the V1, the arrows get "confused" from time to time especially if you are get really close. 100 ft is pretty close considering with good line of sight...
My chevy is a 2000 so those dots aren't there and if I remember right from working with windshields all summer, then the GMT900 (+07 model year) chevy's dont have the dots they use a completely...
Throw it 70mph into a cement wall, then send it in!!![/quote]pull a craig peterson and bake it on the dash of the car until it throws a service required message and send it in, if its under...
yeah Alpine you're 100% right, and Kennedy was killed by a magic bullet too, it all makes sense now....
:shock:
that being said to stay on topic I drove a jeep for 3 years with no front plates,...
well maybe now you can see why everyone on this forum is so against buying electronics on ebay. Everyone lways has their "I got a sweet deal" story but imagine the possibilities to get screwed, even...
Too bad you sold your blinder phoz... I would have liked to see how my work mounting the heads would have stacked up against the laser.
The v1 can even detect the presence of Chuck Norris hiding in ambush, although much like laser alerts let you know you are getting a ticket, the Chuck Norris alert is more a warning that you are...
Alright, I rarely go on rants but this is something that is bugging me recently...
If you have reprogrammed your V1 stop telling people you enable improved Ka sensitivity, THIS IS A LIE. It bugs...
in previous tests by GOL against constant on radar sources the S2 was at the bottom of the pack even scoring below some of the lower end models and having about half the range that some of the high...
the V1 picks up more K band because it is about 3dB more sensitive (which is actually a lot, at least with sound waves 1dB translates to a double in amplitude) on K band than any other detector out...
more food for though,
since we are going with worst case sceenarios, especially in the day and age of selective officers and increasingly sneaky tactics, the extra range extends your ability to...
if you are meaning a friend disabled the bands, after it does the power on self test, the x50, at least, makes two audible beeps and flashes the band or bands that have been disabled it would be...
hope yo werent running both at the same time. Interferrence between the two makes this result completely bogus...
If you werent running them together then there is no way to tell which one...
wel considering laser is infra-red light and infra-red light is what heat is essentially, it makes a lot of sense in this day and age to block that from coming in such a large area as the windsheild....
I am not 100% sure but from reading Roy's blog when this thing came out you have two options for cameras:
1. you see a camerra or hear of an intersection, you then drive to this location and...
they arent having problems with X-band door openers alerting... Back when this thread started over a month ago, it was at random places that didnt even seem to have a radar source anywhere around
did you mean .17 or is your roomate under 21, because .08 is the legal limit, under that and they dont have a case anyways. If he is under 21 though then anything higher than .001 is illegal... You...
my point was if the 8500 is working well it wont get you a ticket, and unlike the V1 when the 8500 falls out of tune it will self-cal and let you know, something you wont read much because the...
Really wow, great tip. Ill let you know if it works, but i am hesitating to order.... My 8500 works, but i don't know if it cuts off range... help anyone?[/quote]well to start, if your 8500 works why...
Dont apologize to the trolls, you were right the accepted terminology for any alert coming from something other than an LEO is a false alert. Its not false radar, just a false alert.
Notice how...
that sure was relevant :roll:
If you want the features of the 9500i then I would wait. A lot of people are finding that truelock doesnt work quite as well as it should. Escort will probably iron the kinks out in the next year...
