To Bob a.k.a Veil Guy

[happya$$]

Bob,

I have been trying to get a hold of you via email. Did you get a chance to send my RD850 back yet?

[happya$$]

Yeah he emailed me and said "man I really like this thing, it is the BEST and you are not getting it back". No I am just playing. He has it and is testing it as I am typing this

As I thought you were aware, I have been away for the past two weeks - first at CES (in Vegas) and then in conducting an extensive real-world driving review of the latest and greatest detectors:

The Bel RX65 Pro
The Escort 8500 X50
The Valentine One v1.8 /w POP2
The Valentine One v1.7

Just got back this evening and need to crash (figuratively). We ended up putting about 1500 miles on our vehicle and racked up a number of speed trap encounters and did not get nabbed once with any of them!

I am in the process of preparing a report based-upon the raw data and will be posting the results shortly.

I replied to your query personally (off-line).

...Right now I need sleep. :?

Thank goodness you're back we had near riot conditions on this forum while you were gone!

[Veil Guy]

LOL!

...And I thought I WAS going to the WILD WEST?!?

Seems I missed the REAL SHOOTING MATCH! :lol:

I am compiling all the data today and will try to have something new to read about all these great detectors ASAP while the events of the trip are still fresh in our minds!

Mind you...given the biases (which I probably had myself going into this test, myself - or perhaps better described as our own histories) that exist, I sincerely hope this article will place the performance of all these detectors in their proper context.

BTW, I have brought with me four Colt 45s (2 V1s, Rx65, x50) :twisted:

I hope all y'all will find the information helpful - as it was intended - and not contentious.
