Do window tints on sides and rear windows interfere with the RD?

.....

that is very stealthy indeed
do your passengers ever try and move the sunvisor to block the sun?
i may have to keep my radar on suction cups when i direct wire because my GF likes using the visors

1) Yes, window tints have a metallic composition to help them reflect the sun's rays... which unfortunately, also has the effect of reflecting radar waves. Fortunately, the majority of RDs have only 1 antenna... and it's facing forward out your windshield which is obviously not tinted. So having tints on the side windows will not have any impact, and even the rear window will have minimal impact as radar from behind you is detected by the waves coming up from behind you, bouncing off another object in front of you, and then coming back toward you.

2) Haha, funny you should mention that. That is the 1 drawback I have to my install... my girlfriend complains about not being able to adjust the sun visor any which way she wants to. It can go to a slightly further than straight up-and-down position, and if you detach the one side from the clip, you can pull it back slightly and then rotate it even further toward the windshield. But you can't push it ALL the way forward because of the RD. Hence, this summer, I'm going to retest the effects of the windshield tint/black dots on detection and consider moving the location slightly... however, she admits it's not the end of the world the way it is right now. Plus, the visor allows me to conceal the detector from being seen from behind for when I'm traveling in Virginia or a cop happens to be tailing me.

I've always kept my detector on suction cups. They work very well and never fail <knocks on wood>.

Does it film straight from the RVM or a camera mounted in a remote location? back/front?

It's an all-in-one design. It records onto a SD card. The camera is integrated onto the back of the rear view mirror housing.

Here's the link where I got it: http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/ca...-recorder.html

I'd like to hear more about your opinion of this product.

Is the video as good as the website examples show? Can you use a bigger than 1GB SD card to record even longer?

Oh wow, that's pretty cool.

what would be one of the main benefits of the RVM Cam?
i would imagine it would help find speed traps and maybe if you get pulled over by an angry cop one day you can have at least audio. what else?

Here is where my 9500i was mounted before I sent it in for the firmware fix:

voice alert is awesome.

[djrams80]

voice alert is awesome.

Not according to my woman. She thinks it's stupid. She especially hates "powering down". She says, "what else tells you that it is turning off"?

[EvilCelica]

women just dont understand us and our gadgets.

i like that the voice alert on your RD is a feminen voice.

Oh for the love of god this better be a joke.... The AN/APG-68 of the F-16 will not be doing speed enforcement on your car...

But the sign says speed enforced by aircraft......... :P :wink:
