Jw how do you keep your ix from bouncing on the windshield? Mine bounces up and down like crazy!

[claya91]

@durand001 I'd get something cushony to line the part that is against the windshield. That might help.

[PWNER3]

Arent you supposed to mount the radar detector in the lowest center-most part of the windshield for best radar detection?

[claya91]

No necessarily. Just think about. The higher the detector the better line of sight it has possibly yielding higher detection. Regardless, unless you completely fail your mount it's not going to make much of a difference.

i own a Escort 9500ix and this shi t don Work for me, i got 2 tickets in 6 months, First one was doing 87 MPh on 65 Zone police got me with laser gun.. never saw him Radar just alert when he shot me... whats the point of that i Though it will alert 1 or 2 miles getting close to him.... and nothing.. and there is been tons of times where i see police officer with laser gun on freeway and i get close pass by them and The Radar is like Nothing.... is That normal?

[claya91]

Get a jammer for laser.

[claya91]

@SleepySkeptic You like the sound of police sirens better? ;)

The worst is when you meet them head on and you get popped for speeding. Detector goes off then quits

@jacobasael

It is almost impossible to detect Laser until you are busted, or if you are lucky enough, the laser signal got bounce off from another car ahead of you. The reason is, officer are trained to aim the laser gun at your head light / front license plate where it is most reflective, and at a distance of 1000ft, the laser beam has a spread of ~14 to 16 inches, so unless the officer has a bad aim, no RD will pick up a laser signal until its too late

@claya91 Felony in the State of California...

@jacobasael I know this response is extremely late, but just to clarify for other people who read this, radar detectors are what they are, RADAR detectors. Yes they do detect laser guns, however laser guns are more advanced than radar guns, and get your speed almost instantly. The only way to protect against laser guns is a laser jammer like claya91 said. RADAR detectors work best against RADAR guns.

@jacobasael Please don't blame the radar detector for not working with (lidar). Escort carries a full line of products that will protect you if you use them correctly and with common sense.

[weewoodeal]

@durand001 try bending your post slightly up 5 degrees.

[edoloman24]

does it only alert you when a cop has his radar on, or does it also alert you when there is a cop without a radar

[pulmonq2]

@claya91 Higher for radar, lower for laser. Although, if you get hit by laser it's too late anyway, so I'd mount high.
