I weighed my V1 on a digital scale without any mount(6.4 ounces) and then with the suction cups mount(6.9 ounces). Does anybody know how much the X50 or Rx65 weighs?

The good old weight test huh big/ugly.. :roll: I'm sure they weigh much more than the v1. In fact I have heard it takes two hands just to lift them...! :lol:

right now WOULD'VE been a good spot to give a cheap shot 1 line remark.

but since I am in the middle of radar detector rehabilitation, proper forum etiquette with Roy, and it is my birthday today, I will refrain and say that I dont know how much the X50 or RX65 weigh in comparison to the V1, but I am sure they would be similar.

The 8500 x50 is 9oz exactly (without the mounting bracket).

thanks guys.... i had a great birthday and for some reason my V1 seems a bit heavier today..

maybe my age is finally catching up to me.

Sethy, the x50 and rx65 are not paper weights, they are quite useful. now lets have some wine.

We all got together and first had your M3 unlocked (wow complicated alarm system) then we stuffed something inside your V1.8 (tired of you thinking your V1.8 was super light) We hope you like your new gut swap. Congratulations you made it another year Brent. :D

Good to hear!

As for your V1 feeling heavier, maybe it had a little to much cake? :roll:

BiGeAsYgUy,

Are the suction cups on your V-1 black, or is that just the light?

BiGeAsYgUy,

I took them off and spray painted them with flat black paint on the side of the suction cup that doesn't stick to the windshield for a more stealthy appearance to avoid cops and thieves.

That's pretty cool, but do they heat up quicker now?

They have never fallen off the windshield if that is what you mean.
