Redline First Impressions...

[PointerCone]

I was confused too. They tested one detector at a time with and open cell phone in walkie talkie mode. That way the shooter could instantly hear when his trigger was detected. For Q/T test that's the only video that matters.

Maybe the shooter could instantly hear when his trigger was detetected but I couldn't. So, my same question. Who detected whom first by what distance or time? I know it's important for Q/T, but C/O is something I'd also like to know.
Nobody else?

I summarized the C/O results in the thread with the videos. Redline won 34.7 and K, V1 won 35.5. However, the differences were neglibile. All would have prevented a ticket, which is what it's really all about. [replacer_img]

On another forum , Upstatedoc had the same results as You and I, so I am pretty sure on the 34.7, the Redline is BETTER than my V-1. I don't believe that on the 34.7, two seconds is negligible.

BTW, my unit tag says it was made in Canada??

]Anyone with enough experience to tell which detector falses less?

[/B]

In two days of testing , the V-1 never shuts the F up. The Redline has been relatively quiet BUT that can be a bad thing too??? MY iX is "too quiet."

From a marketing and sales stand point its a good thing. For us enthusiast no its not good.

Yes, all Belscort RDs are made in a factory in Ontario, Canada.

It's not so much the 2 seconds as he was coming to a stop in both vids, it was like 50 feet. Negligible.

The fact that you are running both detectors together makes your results suspect to most of us here anyway ... maybe they interfere, maybe they don't, but there will always be that "maybe" when running two detectors together.

.............and if you'll read all of my comments, I made that perfectly clear that I was 1. Running BOTH together (that was fully disclosed) and about 48 inches apart and 2. That I too suspected it could affect results so I would reserve judgment on the results till the guys of GOL get a good look at it!! I do suspect however, that the Redline is better on certain Ka bands (34.7) than the two V-1s that I own and I believe that will remain true in the GOL test when they schedule one (soon I hope). Lemme put it this way, and again , this is first impression, the Redline is every bit as good or even better than the V-1 on K and Ka (so far). About the same on off-axis hits.

BTW, at 75 MPH, 2 seconds is NOT negligible, at a stop or near stop, it is almost irrelevant.

at 75mph 2 seconds is 220 feet, basically negligible to manufacturing variances and current road/weather conditions.

Relax dude, I was not challenging you or saying you were hiding anything.

In Cbr's 34.7 vid the difference was 50 feet, which is negligible. It was only 2 seconds because he was going about 10-20 mph and coming to a stop.

I guess the question I asked somehow broke forum decorum as a taboo subject that's never discussed...or I haven't passed the in-house initiation for newbies yet.

I took it upon myself to do the initiation. I drank 2 six packs of beer, ate an entire can of anchovies and guzzled the oil, ate 1 pound of chitlins and hog maws, and polished it off with a live cockroach and buttermilk. I puked. I HAD to pass even after barfing. So it must come down to forum decorum whereby the ONLY test discussed is radar detector against radar detector.

A few months ago before and right after my car was installed with a Blinder M27, I operated the laser gun while someone else drove my car. Before installation the readout was instantaneous. After installation I KNOW what the LEO would have been seeing in distance, time, and speed and what I would hear in my car as far as making an adjustment to my speed after I switched roles from shooter to driver. FYI, the LEO would have seen a bunch of blank lines. We did the test repeatedly back and forth.

So, radar detectors X, Y, and Z pick up the signal from the radar GUN in varying degrees of sensitivity...in the REAL WORLD, when does RADAR GUN A, B, C, and D pick up the vehicle and distance? Is it before, at the same time, or AFTER radar detector X, Y, Z detects it whether it's C/O, Q/T, or I/O? (sufficient time to avoid a ticket is not the answer)
(please don't put me through another initiation)
