Digital camera reviews of Escort Passport 8500 X50 Radar and Laser Detector (Red Display)
Digital camera Review: Don't know if this will prevent a ticket or not
Summary: 3 Stars
I drive 20 miles south into Atlanta every day. It takes me approx. 40 minutes. Of those 40 minutes, I have an X reading on my Passport about 50% of the time. Sometimes on going. Sometimes intermittent. Various intensities. I have it set on City. Even on roads in more rural areas, I get constant X band readings. I have yet to link a signal to a cop. I've been using the detector for about 1 month. This product may help me on backroads and roadtrips, but as far as being effective in Atlanta, it is pretty much useless.Digital camera Review: Dont leave home w/out it
Summary: 5 Stars
Dont leave home with out it...it is a great Detector...it has worked for me in the Flat lands of South Florida up to 4 miles....absolutely in credible...it also has picked up the Super High Frequency signals of Radar on the other side of a small hill/slope cause the signals from FHP radar are bouncing/reflecting all over the place.
Dont Leave Home with out it.
Electronica Direct did a great job with packing and shipping the Escort 8500X50.

Good sensitivity and discrimination.
Maximum volume not so good if listening to radio/CD.
Digital camera Review: Escort 8500 x50 Radar Detector
Summary: 4 Stars
Excellent Radar detector for the money. Gives you ample lead time before seeing any cop car. Very few false warnings, mostly from bigger shopping centers. Definitely a worthy unit.Digital camera Review: Escort Customer Service Sucks
Summary: 1 Stars
After having this unit for 5 years the volume control nob got too hot in the sun and melted. I called Escort and they said they can't sell me just that part for replacement. They said I had to pay $59 to get it fix from them. To pay $59 to get a $3 control nob fix is a crazy price to pay. Stay away from all the Escort radar. Valentine 1 is my next purchase.
