i got the escort passport srx and its awesome. they go for like 1500 bucks but got it for a few hundred dollars brand new.

 

that is awesome!!!! that took sometime to do

 

I have a built in K40 radar/laser detector with laser jammer. but i have no clue what all the beeps mean considering i didnt put it in.

 

I have always used cobra. My father-in-law is a truck driver also so every christmas we get the newest one. lol

 

Jamars are illegal. The V1 is the best radar detctor because they have the arows and the counter, not just a signal strength indicator.

 

Lets put it this way...

Would you rather spend $300 on a decent radar...

or

$300 on a speeding ticket, with possible points on your license AND your insurance will go up.

 

rx65 is amazing.....except the ONE time i drove with out it (going down the street) i got pulled over and lost my licence for 6 months

damn cops!

 

I am using a whistler something or another.... paid around 140 bones at Best Buy...

The output voltage of the cig adapter was exactly 12 volts, so I spliced into my drivers side vanity mirror, and hard wired the detector in....
That way, I can mount the detector in my tint strip, and from outside the car, you wouldnt even know it was there... Plus, above the mirro, i almost blends in, and when I got pulled over (these arent perfect), the cop didnt even notice it, or mention it at any means.....

 

Depends on what you want it for.

If you have a lead foot then plan on spending some money for one. THink about it. A ticket of going 85 in a 65 will be more expensive than a $300 detector.

If you just want one for speed traps and only travel moderatly over then only $100 will do.


Here are my pennys:

You don't speed but just want to know where the cops are:
Cobra or Whislter....$100-150 but don't spend more than $150. Those detectors average range in the open is 1 mile.

You travel speedlimit to 10mph over:
Cobra, Whistler, or Escort (7500). These will be $150 to $250. These detectors average range in the open is 1-2 miles.

You travel 10-20mph over speedlimit:
Escort or Valentine. These will cost around $300 and have a range in the open at about 3-4 miles.

You travel 20+ over the speedlimit:
Escort SR-7 with the Lasershifter ZR3. Or the Escort SRX which comes with both. This price is around $1000 but you can find for less at wholesale places. This range is about 3-4 miles and the shifter will cause to cop to read 3mph or 300mph on his gun...meaning he cant give you a ticket by laser. This requires professional install too.
