Escort 8500 X50 Radar Detector

Escort Passport 8500 X50 Radar and Laser Detector (Red Display)

Radar detector manufacturers are constantly playing a game of catch-up with new technologies calculated to nab the lead-footed. “Pop” radar is a moderately new instant-on technology that may make a whole generation of radar detectors obsolete. These radar guns operate at low frequency until they are switched on to determine a driver’s speed with lightning-quick correctness. This leaves a radar detector small opportunity to scan and detect the radar signal. Pop radar may sound ominous, but a new crop of radar detectors–including the Escort Passport 8500 X50–offer Pop radar detection. Escort claims that the 8500 X50 is the most powerful and well ahead radar detector ever, with the supreme sensitivity required to detect low-frequency Pop radar. Design
Mounting the 8500 in our test vehicle was simple and straightforward. A small suction cup bracket slides into the unit’s release mechanism and easily attaches to the windshield with light pressure. The unit is housed in a sturdy plastic case that’s low profile and compact–although it is larger and heavier than Escort’s wireless offering, the Solo S2. The rear of the unit is dominated by a receiver window and there’s a rear-facing laser detector window calculated to detect laser signals emanating from behind the vehicle.

Digital Signal Processing (DSP) provides maximum range, with minimum fake alarms. The Escort 8500 has a suprisingly simple control layout. Two buttons on the top of the unit control sensitivity settings and display brightness. They also double as selection buttons when the unit is in programming mode. The left side of the unit sports a volume dial. A mute button is positioned on the front panel next to the large, horizontal LCD display which, during normal use, graphs the intensity of the radar and laser signals the unit detects. Power

Car Dash / Windshield Mount for Escort Passport 9500ix 8500 X50 Radar Detector

Directly from our “car mount labs” comes the best radar detector car mount on the market. This is especially useful for states like California where windshield mount are illegal!

Why do we reckon this is the best?

Firstly, we have combined our heavy duty suction mount system with a mounting plate. The suction is rated to hold 20 pounds. We use this suction system to hold devices such as GPS, satellite radios, PDAs and iPods (check our store if you need accessories for these devices). Once it is attached to your windshield, it isn’t coming down unless you want it to by pressing on the suction release.

Secondly, the angle of the mounting plate can be adjusted up and down. Your device attaches to the mounting plate with a heavy duty velcro strip which we provide. It really looks fantastic as you can see in the pictures. The cops will envy you when they see your car with this mount in the parking lot (ok, maybe not).

Thirdly, we include a dash plate with double sided tape so that the suction can adhere to your dash. We’ll bet you can’t do that with the mount the manufacturer included in the box!

• This is especially useful for states like California where windshield mount are illegal!
