Bought my first V1 to replace a Passport 5000, upgraded it to a 1.8 (3.864) and was disapointed with the ghosting so I tried a 9500ix. Really liked it and after reading here about the range of the...

I've bought a V1 twice. I now own 2 9500ix's.
Depends on if you like to enjoy driving or like driving white knucked.
I'll let the OP figure out which is which :)[/QUOTE]
Making...
My experience is differnent than most here. My 9500i and ix both had simmilar performance and performed very simmilar to my 3.864 V1. The 9500's were better on Ka (33.8), but the V1 may have had a...
Or market research showed that it would validate a V1 purchase. Take myself for example. I've been trying to decide between my V1 and my Redline. V1 has arrows, but Redline has far superior range....
It's not bad, just take your time.
2 issues I've run into. Newer FWD (my 500 was the worst) don't have any access holes through the firewall to run wires. I had to drill a hole from engine bay...
And there is your ignorance which puzzles me.
What you are pretty much implying is that Escort a company that doesn't run their own database knows very little about GPS camera detectors can make...
I guess I see things the other way and will get an SC55. I always figure when a company has the time to discect the competitors product, they will find its features and go one better. I expect the...
This didn't really answer much for me I already knew these two are supposed to be the top dogs and expected simmilar results. However I'm like the others and would like to see how the inbetween...
Do you have a version which I can stick onto a cop car and have it report the cop's position to Trapster in real time? :D[/quote]
Something, ahem, magnetic and weatherproof?[/QUOTE]
And...
Just got a new price sheet from our Escort Rep and it now lists the SC55. It lists the Minimum advertised price as $159.95 or 179.95 with Accessories, but no info as to what its capeable of, or...
Does anyone have any videos of Cobra's reaction to Q/T. Also Whistler (but its my understanging Whisler is pretty good).
Because if you think LEO's are going to use Q/T in an attempt to defeat...
I can't say for sure since I've only had a few chance to "play", no real testing with multiple runs, but I'd say the X and K are the same on my 3.864 and 3.813. However, KA (33.8) is better on the...
On the 3.872 Ka was off, not the 3.813. I agree Ka off is unuseable for most and that result should be ignored, but the 3.813 results compared to the 3.864 says something.
I also should add that...
I guess it depends on what info you want to belive. If I were you I'd try to find someones 3.872 and do a comparison. Many here don't want to admit it, but its my opinion that the 3.864 is bad in...
Agreed, however, if your radar detector doesn't have the range to warn you of the I/O shot ahead, it is also RD FAIL. Thats the gamble you take. Where I live I'm far more worried about the distant...
I disagree. Maybe if your stuck in LA or some city, it would be useless. But for those of us out in Podunk nowhere, I'd gladly take 13 miles of range (which the Redline won't deliver in the real...

Here in Iowa, I've never seen anything but MPH radar and 70% 33.8 KA (29% K, and occasional X). That said, what brand used determines what frequency. And brand used is determined by 2 things...
Except many like myself don't want an SR7. Most (myself included) consider the radar detector an add on to the car so looks are very important. Most buyers installing a detector on a high end car...
Any pictures of the SC55 yet? I can't even see it in the Video.
I'd say its DEFINATE that Escort is either working on this or already has a solution to it. The real question is will they ever release it or produce it. I think it all depends on if Q/T becomes a...
Any pictures of the SC55? Hopefully its got a good appearance and is small.
Also although it doesn't add trulock, I think that would be an awsome idea for Escort. If they could pull it off...
I prefered my ix to my 3.864 V1, and I'm rural. I found the range basically a tie and the GPS was nice for when I was around door openers. As stated I did miss the arrows.
That said, I'm...
I have one that was shipped 10/20 that has serial number in the 880 range, date code at the end is 4209, which I took to mean the 42nd week of 09. That's pretty quick shipping if true. What is the...
