Radar Detectors...What Are You Running?

[0260N5Si]

Just thought it would be an interesting thread to see what some are running for 5-0 protection...Perhaps some pics including detector location and install?...Questions?...Reviews...Whatever!

I myself run the Escort Redline BS/RDR & Anti Laser Priority Triple Parking Sensors

I won't tell you. You're 5-0.

I use a 12-band Cobra that I bought 5 years ago. It does its job and keeps me alerted, but I rarely speed anyway.

...Yeah, like most, it is more of an awareness tool...But, I would not be without one!...Just a handy gadget like anything else

8500 x50. Bought it 5 years ago used and it is still chugging along fine. Saved me from 1 ticket that I am sure of so I say it paid for itself.

I use a Cobra 9545 that I got pretty cheap. It gets the job done and works great on the interstate where i drive the most.

I feel like if you ever needed alerts for a helicopter, you'd already be screwed haha

I contemplate getting one every now and then but I hate cords. Plus I read the cordless suck.

The S3 is decent. But I have mine hooked up with the direct wire smartcord. Only thing I see is the smartcord head. Discretely placed.

Depending where you mount it, you could always pull some interior pieces and hide the wires.

Can you attach/detach it easily if its like that? looks really good, but I dont want my detector visible all the time...

I'm confused... The OP is a police officer but still bought/uses a radar detector?

Why waste your money on one? Just show your badge if you get pulled over.

Well, I hate that it happens but it's completely unfair that cops can be above the law even off duty

I have the Whistler Pro 3600 and it does a great job. You just have to mount it properly. Very inconspicuous. http://www.amazon.com/Whistler-PRO-...&qid=1381091298&sr=1-1&keywords=whistler+3600

You can see the module installed in front of the shifter.

Looks like an rj45 telephone jack for pwer, so you just detach it.

Yea you push down on the top release and unplug the line,simple and no wires in the way !
