Well, I ended up sending in my unit too..It cost $59.95. They were, however, VERY VERY fast in getting it back to me (I got it back one week after I put it in the mail! :D ). And, the top of the...

Well, I ended up sending in my unit too..It cost $59.95. They were, however, VERY VERY fast in getting it back to me (I got it back one week after I put it in the mail! :D ). And, the top of the...
The shielding goes bad over time? Not to be a PITA here but...everything goes bad over time. :? Maybe if I'm putting some really demanding electrical requirement on the system, it will show some...
Well, just so everyone knows, I have the X50 (bought it almost 2 years ago) and I am having the same problem. I drive a 2002 Dodge Neon R/T with an upgraded coil and ignition wires (MSD) on my car. ...
Anybody know a store that sells the correct size of suction cup to fit the X50's mount? Tried looking in a couple places (CVS and Home Depot) but couldn't find anything to fit. Going on a long road...
Wow!! :shock: :shock: If I were you I would certainly go for that blinder at wholesale.
I'm still waiting to install it but I'll let you know when I do.
Do I just open it up by unscrewing the three screws on the bottom? Will this hurt it in any way? Is there anything I need to be careful with?
Thx :)
It does!! :( I tried it today and when I plugged in the speaker, the X50 went silent. Now I don't know what I'm going to do. I really wanted to hook it up to a switch.
Anybody know how I...
Um, er, I knew that! :oops: :)
How would I check that if I have to hardwire it in order to even turn it on?
I'll post pictures either tomorrow or the day after. The speaker is the "external powered speaker" offered as an accessory to the X50 on this page:
...
Just a question about some hard-wiring. I've already hardwired my RD above my mirror with the direct wire smartcord so that's all set. Now I need to hardwire the external speaker and find a good...
Just for the sake of clarity, I realized that I made a little error on the first post so I'm editting it here adn have already done so in the original. When I say that the cop was directly behind...
You're right, cosine error produces a reading below the actual speed. However, a cop knowing this could write a ticket ABOVE what his radar unit was reading. In other words, he would guess how fast...
Okay, I posted here because I thought that more people would see it here and I think it's a relevant topic that deserves some attention. The topic: cops running radar incorrectly just to generate...
I'm getting ready to mount above my rear-view mirror but I'm worried about the mounting bracket of the rear-view blocking radar signals (The X50 will be mounted almost right beside the part of the...
One thing I was also thinking about....are you sure that that little device you have has the same characteristics as a police LIDAR gun? What I mean is, maybe the laser isn't as wide at a given...
Well, I guess if it worries you too much, you can always buy two more sensors for the front and make it an M-40. :)
Yeah, I saw that post and I am seriously thinking about it. If I remember when I get in my car today, I probably will. :D
I don't think the X50 has a POP falsing issue. When I enabled POP on my X50, I probably got two false POPs a week. The reason I turned mine off was due to the fact that Roy mentioned two states in...
Automute just turns down the volume after a certain number of beeps, it doesn't shut if off.
I like the smartcord display because when I'm driving at night with the X50 in dark mode I can see...
I'll be getting my DirectWire-Smartcord and my external speaker for the X50 on Tuesday from Roy. So now I have to find two power sources (speaker and detector). I figure I'll definitely use the...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't Site Admins supposed to be impartial or neutral. Sure you can have an opinion as to which radar detector you prefer, but I think it speaks volumes, and very...
pemarsh, I may have missed it in the first thread you posted but what version of the V1 are you running?
Is it me or does that building look like a shack?
