Escort Solo S2

I've also found myself wondering about how far off the replacement for the S2 might be, as the S2 has been on the market for several years already. (Of course, it's still a baby compared to the "classic" V1 :wink: !)

HERE IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR SHORT VERSION

OK here it is!
Please remember, this was more of an experiment than an actual test. For a few of the detectors, we did a second run, and the results seemed to be consistent with the first run.

Radar used:
Kustom Golden Eagle, 35.5 GHz.

Results in number of feet from source at which the detector alerted.

Valentine One v3.826
1072 Feet

RX-65 S7 v3.6, USA Mode
788 Feet

Solo S2 w/Cord
433 Feet

Solo S2 No Cord
421 Feet

Whistler 1788 w/Cord
93 Feet

Whistler 1788 No Cord
66 Feet

PNI Silver Bullet RX7600 w/Cord

I have the Solo S2 in my truck, and it's fine for the truck use's. However I used to have another one in the bimmer and replaced with the V1, after getting no warning 3 times after being hit w/ laser.

You going to get a jammer Jeff?

I haven't played around with the other batteries yet, but do have a spare set in the car and will probably switch to rechargable NiMH when these die out.

Not to pop your bubble but did you see the latest test GOL did? The S2 detected KA at like 390 feet, the V1 was at 1100 feet!!!

You look at these tests, or the one that radar roy put up on his site. Who are you going to trust more? I know who I am, at least his matches what I've researched on the internet. Besides the word unofficial...

There is going to be people that always put down cordless detectors because they automatically label cordless as sucking. Sorry, but that is the case.

No, but I should. My car is a lease so its not really worth it, and high speeds on the truck are scary and dangerous.
