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.

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!

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.

Do you know someone that loves gadgets? Is there someone on your holiday shopping list that is looking for something unexpected? Well, they might like the Whistler XTR-220 Radar Detector. The XTR-220 is unusual in that it has a remote control. This is very helpful for people with vehicles that have large windshields or dashes, such as many SUVs.

The remote is small and easily fits on a keychain. What is better than a radar detector? A radar detector with a remote control!

The XTR-220 is also a good all-purpose budget friendly ($62.99) radar detector. It has an easy to read LED display, POP mode radar detection, 3 city modes, and selectable bands. For a limited time we are offering $5.00 shipping, we have them in stock, and they ship out the same day as long as you place an order before 6 p.m. EST.

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.

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!

Do you know of someone that spends a lot of time driving where there are redlight cameras? Well, we may have a few gifts they might like.

The Cheetah C100 Redlight / Speed Camera Detector ($224.95)is pre-loaded with thousands of safety camera GPS locations, including redlight and fixed positions speed cameras, and you can even mark up to 100 locations yourself. The C100 also has the Rescue Me feature, which when enabled, will announce your exact GPS co-ordinates. A digital compass is also included and with a press of a button, the C100 will announce your driving direction.

The Whistler RLC-100 Redlight / Speed Camera Detector ($79.99) also uses GPS locations with an on-board database of redlight and speed camera locations, and alerts you when you are near one. Another great feature of the RLC-100 is that it has a secondary power outlet so you can connect a radar detector or other 12 volt device to it. (Interface cable sold separately - Radar detectors that use a phone style jack will also need to use our Bel / Escort Barrel Power Cord Adapter).

These are a true GPS warning systems. They do not require you to use redlight camera websites for inconsistent updates, or have to constantly check your location on a phone or navigational display while driving.

Do you have a friend or family member that has mentioned they would like a radar detector? Well, shopping for a detector can be a rather involved task. One thing you might want to do, is check out our radar detector buyers guide. But, I thought I would pass along the detectors that I personally suggest people will like.

If your budget is under $100, then the Whistler Pro 68 Radar Detector ($99.99) is the way to go. It is probably the best detector for the price.

An upgrade from the Pro 68 is the Whistler Pro 78 SE Radar Detector ($169.95). This is one of the best performing detectors for under $200, it is very popular, a great detector, and has some great features.

Next is the Bel Professional Series RX65 Radar Detector ($339.95). We have a very detailed review here on our radar detector blog that shows why this is one of the best detectors around for any price.

If you are looking for perhaps the best traditional style radar detector, then give the Escort Passport 9500ix Radar Detector ($499.95) a look. The ability to block out false alerts, and a redlight camera warning system, along with amazing range and performance makes the 9500ix one of the top detectors around.

These are just a few suggestions, please call or email us with any questions you have. Our staff is ready to help you find the right gift (even if it is just for yourself).

The use of laser devices to determine speed has been slowly growing here in the US and in other countries. Radar is still the main system used to determine a vehicles speed due to laser being more expensive and requiring additional training. Eventually, there are going to be a lot more laser systems being used, and honestly current detectors have a bit of a problem giving a fast enough warning. A laser often only needs about 1/4 of a second to clock your speed. This is why we recommend products such as Laser Veil and Blinder Laser Jammers.

As the use of lasers expands though, they are running into a few legal battles. In Chicago, the tactic of challenging their accuracy is being used to beat tickets. The same thing is also happening in Hawaii. So if you are in Chicago, or even luckier - Hawaii, and get a ticket from a laser gun, you might be able to get out of it.

In time, the use of laser will have enough supportive legal precedence built up, and questioning their accuracy in court will just not work. We will continue to look for more products to defend yourself from getting a ticket from a laser device, and offering great deals as well!

Now that the holidays are here, almost here, uhm, here. We have extended our return policy. If you are already doing a bit of shopping, don't worry. As long as the item is returned by January 24th, 2010 you are covered. The rest of our return policy still applies. As always, contact us with any questions or even help picking a gift!
