Yeah Baby!

It's the M1A1 Abrams of Radar Detectors. If you get car jacked, use it as a shield!

I used my Redline across the Causeway this morning and I got some pretty incredible alerts. I will post some video up later when I get home tonight. I had some really long 34.7 Ka band alerts.

It seems like I drove forever with an alert and then a cop goes passed on the other side of the bridge, but it wasn't him that the Redline was alerting to. I kept driving forever and then I see him. I don't know the distances, but my feeling is that it blew my Whistler XTR-690SE and Escort 8500 refurb out of the water.

The Redline is very compact, heavy, and seems very well built like the V1. I might even go out on a limb and say that it feels a little more quality than a V1. I like the black stealth look and even though the V1 and the Redline have magnesium cases, the Redline's case feels more like a metal where the V1's case feels more like a really strong plastic. Maybe somebody who has owned a V1 and Redline will know what I am talking about.

I left my neighborhood this morning and immediately got a K band alert from a door opener that is far away. I haven't detected this K band false in this location since I had my V1. My Whistler XTR-690SE and Escort 8500 never alert to this false from this distance.

I also got many alerts from K band sensors as I drove down Poydras Street in New Orleans. Neither my Whistler or my Escort 8500 alert to these falses. I don't even have a clue where they are coming from.

Things I don't like:

With detection distances that the Redline seems to be able to achieve, arrows and a good ramp-up are a necessity, but the Redline has neither.

I like the Redline case, BUT I wish it had the "stippling" effect of the paint on the V1 and STi Driver. If you owned the original Escort, the Redline has about the same finish to it.

I also notice more falses on K band sensors, and from much further away. I think it's due to the crazy off-axis detection the Redline is capable of. The other day it went off K band, then I went 1/2 mile make a 90 degree turn to the left, went another 3/4 mile, and there sat the unattended LEO with the radar still on. Crazy.

Vid deserves an award

If the Redline acts anything like an stir (I imagine it could be better because of having the antenna higher) You'll miss the arrows, and bogey counter. The stir does miss QT but I almost never run into it and you're PWNT anyway...

Be cool to see if you move out of your crib

Awesome vid!

The STi-R is better than the V1 at 35.5 QT when in 2/5/8 RDR-off
