    Re: 8500 x50 REAL remote display?

    Also, turn off auto-mute. Those three together will work for just about any situation short of running a chainsaw inside the vehicle while driving. :eek:

    Re: When do you turn your RD on?

    I do the same for the same reason; all are hardwired to full-time hot circuits, rather than ignition-switched.

    Re: The new Blinder

    Are there vendors still selling J15? I assume that the forthcoming product announcement from Blinder will then be something like the J17? At any rate, I take it that the J16 is about to become "the...

    Re: The new Blinder

    The results that RadarRoy and GOL have shown with the Blinder are really impressive, especially when you consider the dollar cost.

    Re: What to buy: 9500ix vs. Valentine1

    I bought one of those four years ago and recently came pretty close to replacing it but decided that laser jammers are a far better investment of dollars. The x50 remains a very reliable performer.

    I was thinking about buying an Escort ZR3 or ZR4...the ZR3 is really attractive at the current close-out price, but this chart ^^^ just...

    Does the firmware version correlate to the horn version?

    Re: 8500x50 question

    If I understand what you're saying correctly, the reason is that laser, unlike radar, is very narrow-beam. There's often little or no scatter. So, the car in front of you might be painted and you'd...
  14. Re: New forum members: What RD are you presently using?

    You betcha. Did the RD and GPS hardwire and a RVM upgrade last fall, as well as an R&R on the rear springs and shocks. Jeep spent all winter in the garage. Time for a new project!

    Re: V1.. Very nice installation

    We should merge this with Neon's VASCAR thread. This guy's all set in case they ever start using radar from the air. :p
  16. Re: New forum members: What RD are you presently using?

    X50, hardwired above RVM. Auto Mute off, Tone LOUD, volume all the way up. Installed in 2005.

    Considering seriously adding anti-laser this spring.

    Welcome. With laser and instant-on, or even with other radar used smartly by an LEO, if you aren't driving "smart," your RD will *not* protect you. Learn things like using rabbits and the RD will be...

    Poll: X50 Upgrade - add ZR3 or Replace w/ 9500ix

    I was thinking about replacing/upgrading my 8500 X50 with a 9500ix, which I figure would cost me around $350 net. I noticed, though, that the ZR3 is for sale at a reduced price now (closeout?). I got...

    Re: The Break Up...

    If there were some basic flaw in Belscort's business model, they'd have gone Tango Uniform again. And the Belscort product line doesn't contain as many variations as some might think. ;)

    Re: 9500ix Accessories

    The instruction vid on the Escort website actually suggests using a USB/mini-USB cord from your camera if you have one - sort of interesting anti-marketing, but quite honest.
