Guys of Lidar Radar Detector Test - March 2007
The Guys of Lidar, a group of radar detector enthusiasts, has posted the results of their March 2007 radar detector and laser jammer test. Unlike a few other testers, the Guys of Lidar do not declare winners - they only post the real numbers from the testing. Here are a few highlights:
- The Bel STi Driver had less than stellar performance on one Ka frequency, but other than that the STi put up superb numbers!
- The re-engineered Whistler models, the XTR-690 and Pro 78, showed considerable improvement over previous Whistler models. We had hoped that they would turn in performance challenging the $300 and up Bel and Escort models, but it doesn't look like they are there quite yet.
- The Bel Vector 955 was the big surprise. A great showing for a sub-$200 model!
