Hi everyone and thanks for your responses. When I called Bel last I did ask to speak to the person in charge or the Company spokesperson to ask why more care is not taken to provide perfect products...

WTH! This is INEXCUSABLE!

I know it is but I'm trying to keep my BP down so I'll give them one more chance. Makes me lose faith in their brand. I think their QC is non-existent. OTOH my V1 is 2...

Hi All

Last topic I wrote was how my new Sti would not pick up K band. I sent it back and got a new unit. Soon as I plugged the new one in it would flash "service required". Bummer. I called Bel...

Thanks thestaton, I live in Va so I really need the stealth. What worries me is that if qc isn't excellent at Bel and my last unit sucked how do I really know that the Spectre proofness is working,...

Ixnay on that. I hope the replacement detector picks up radar! I asked them to please give it a manual test to be sure it works. I'll let everyone know.

My V1 is excellent on all bands. It's been banged, dropped, abused, thrown hurriedly into the back of the SUV when a cop looks like he's gonna pull me. (I live in VA!) and it still operates like...

Milkman--you should send yours back for a fix. You know, you'd think they would test these things out before shipping. Jeesh. I drive in VA so I really need the stealth of the STi, just y bad luck to...

I'll trade ya!

Thanks for the response. I figured I just got a bad unit, that's my luck.

I have a V1 but I decided to buy an STI and check out the fantastic reviews. Nice detector and I want to like it but K band hardly warns at all. Every encounter starts when the LEO is within eyesight...

My STI gets excellent range and I like it better than my V1 in a lot of ways. I live in Va so I wanted the RDD protection but I like the up-to-date features and ease of use. As far as radar warning,...

I own a V-1 and a Solo S-2 and both are about 9 months old. I use them both and keep testing them against eachother when I have the opportunity. I like them both but for different reasons.

The...

Just noticed you have a BEL, don't worry about RDD's!

Asianfire, I live in Virginia and I understand your paranoia as I used to feel the way you do. Probably the only way that you'll get caught with your detector is if you get careless and they see it...

I think I've spoken with that woman too and felt like afterwards she needed a little customer service class. Mike prides himself on taking care of the customer so I'd agree with the other poster to...

Thanks for the pictures, anyone have a picture of Escort's place? Appreciate the Photoshop Carlos!

I knew you were going to take my review the wrong way :P

Personally, I wouldn't trade the convenience and aesthetics of the SOLO for another corded unit. The SOLO works well enough for most...

I have a V1 and a SOLO S2, spent a fortune on them and like both units very much. The V1 picks up radar quicker than the S2 and especially so when ka is being used. I'd agree that 20% less detection...

it's not too expensive if you truly LOVE the sport.

I have a V-1 and a Solo S2 and the Solo is a very capable 1st mate. It's super convenient and easily concealable and in Virginia those...

Dave Kr.....you should have ordered the SOLO as your backup! How's life doin in the Anus State?? :wink:

Karl

VW242---I've seen no difference in my SOLO when using the cord. I know Escort says there isn't. I usually do not use the cord when I'm in VA cause I don't want to get nailed by the cops.
...

I thought the SOLO had the same performance whether you use batteries or cord. Only difference is the display stays lit with the cord.

That's funny davekr about the battery issue at home, same here :)

mauiman I went to Mo Valley in Marshall from 1977-78 then transferred to Rockhurst for 78-79 but left there and graduated from...

Thanks I'll check it out.

BTW mauiman, I went to Rockhurst College on 52nd and Troost years ago.
