Redlight and Speed Camera Warning Systems Reviewed
Regular readers and customers know that here at Buy Radar Detectors, we like to help you find the radar detector, camera warning system, laser jammer, etc... that is best for your personal driving needs. We work with you to research all of the products available, and we even offer services to help. We also really like independent reviewers. They often offer a perspective and analysis that helps all of us stay better informed of the many devices available. In turn we are able to provide real world opinions on different devices, and help find what is best for you.
One of the independent review sites we like here at our radar detector lab is radartest.com. There are two new articles over there that many of you will find interesting. The first article is on redlight camera databases. It provides some interesting information on how the camera databases work, as well as a comparison of some of the most common ones in use.
In the second article, there is a product comparison test between some of the leading combination radar detector / camera warning systems. If you have been thinking about buying a GPS enabled radar detector you will want to give it a look.
I think all of this warrants a new contest! Send an email to us at contest @ buyradardetectors.com (remove the blank spaces) briefly telling us about the time you wished you had a camera warning system, were saved by one, or a review of one of the systems. Your entry might even end up here on our radar detector blog, and the five best are going to win a free t-shirt (make sure to include what size shirt and a shipping address in your email).
So go and read the articles about redlight camera systems, and let us know if you have any questions!

Perhaps the Easiest to Install Remote Radar Detector / Laser Jammer from Escort
The Passport Qi45 radar detector by Escort is designed to be the quickest and easiest to install remote radar detector around. The system has only three components: The antenna/receiver, the interface, and the display/controller. All that you need to do is to wire the interface to a switched power supply and connect the antenna and display using standard RJ11 cables.
Escort states that the entire system can be installed in less than one hour. If you have been looking for a remote install detector for the price or a windshield mount, then Escort may just have what you want. You can even add optional laser shifters at the same time or later as an upgrade and have laser jamming capabilities.
We have the Escort Qi45 Radar Detector ready to ship for $499.95, and we are even offering free two day shipping for a limited time. The separate laser shifter pack is $249.95. Let us know if you have any questions.

Get Your Car Clean, Even in the Middle of Winter
Here at Buy Radar Detectors we get a lot of great products. Some are very impressive, some will save you money, and some we just like. One item that we currently are passing around here at Radar Detector Headquarters is AQUANIL-X Waterless Wash and Wax. AQUANIL-X is perfect for all car nuts and petrol heads, and is a great gift.
The AQUANIL-X 8 oz bottle ($8.99) is small enough to stash away in your car for those times when you need to clean up your vehicle real fast. You do not need to bucket and water, just spray on and wipe off. The larger AQUANIL-X 32 oz bottle ($17.99) is great for keeping in the garage or as part of your detailing kit.
For those of you in northerly, cold environments, this is also a great way to protect your vehicle this winter without having to wash your car with water.

UPDATED! Redline Radar Detector, Here Now!
That is correct! The Redline Radar detector from Escort is now here and ready to ship. The Escort Redline radar detector is a no-frills performance detector. It may have the longest detection range of any current device. Escort states that the Redline has the best detection range available of any radar detector.
The Redline has voice alerts, and a simple but clear display with brightness controls, and auto muting. One of the best features is that it uses the same magnesium case as the Bel STi Driver. This means it is completely shielded and undetectable by radar detector detectors.
If you have been waiting to get this impressive, all-out detector, or have started to do a bit of Christmas shopping, you may one to grab one of these now. It may be a short wait until the next shipment arrives from Escort. There have been a lot of calls and emails about this detector, and we cannot wait to hear what all of you think about it!
