So like i asked a long time ago, has anyone used the 9500i. I hear this is almost as good as the v1(and i like the design better) and what about the new zr4 shifter from cincinnati microwave(escort), i was planning on linking the two and having a kickass setup for about 900 bucks

 

That's hilarious!!!!


I think most ppl that used 9500 and are serious about radar detection have returned it as it has some bugs that need to be worked out. AFAIK.

 

So i really dont want to get a valentine 1, what should i get?

 

I hear the Bel STi driver is good and the 8500 x50 is OK....not sure what to do i really was planning on getting the 9500i or the Bel STi

 

Just ordered my 3rd Valentine One.

Bel and Escort are out of the same house now. check the addresses. most of there products are similar with a different housing. as far as the 9500i, as stated above there are some glitches with it , like not recognizing signals in a certain area, since it blocks out a bigger frequency range, blah blah blah.

if you really want GPS in your radar, you still need to wait a bit

 

if anyone has a v1 or a blinder 25 or 45 , hit me up please...

 

im a bit of a noob with radar detectors and stuff like that. ive been searching and reading but didn't really get what i was looking for. Im not sure what cops use in my area, but would it be helpful to have both laser and radar dection?? is there one device that detects both???

 

The V1 (my personal choice), Passport X50, and Beltronics RX65 all have radar/laser detection. If you're getting hit with laser and your detector picks it up, chances are you're already too late unless you also have a laser jammer.

 

The Valentine One is the best radar/lidar detector.

The Laser Interceptor, Laser Pro Park, and Antilaser are the best laser jammers on the market.

So these things really work? They jam the signals, and MPH?

 

I've got a 8500 X50 works pretty damn well.

 

The laser jammers do work, yes You still need to be cautious, however.

 

Just go to youtube.com and type in Laser Interceptor, Laser Pro Park, or Antilaser and you will find videos of them in action jamming police lidar (laser) guns.
