I’ve owned this detector for a year now and I have just decided to sell it and go back to an Escort Model. The only reason I gave up the Escort Passport model was because I lived in Va and needed stealth because detectors are illegal in Va. The problem with the theory is that the STI Driver does NOT have anywhere near the ability of the Passport. Many times by the time I received the warning on the Driver I was already looking straight at the cop. Useless. Several times it also seemed like it completely failed to recognize a threat at all! Again useless. And as a side note, the amount of false alarms I received with the Driver on ANY setting was ridiculous.Very annoying and distracting. The only positive feature I can say about it is of course its stealth ability – yes you have it BUT at a big cost. And I am not referring to the price. I’ve decided to to take my money from the sale of this and to go back to Escort. Good Luck!
Radar detectors for motorists were developed nearly at the same time as police started to use radar gun to pick drivers for speeding, motorists started to use the small mobile devices to "discover" radar signals in due time.
Beltronics USA
Motorists may find different brands on the market in big price range. For years, Beltronics (TM) products are among the most popular Beltronics Sti radar devices on the electronics market covering the diversified demand of the growing number of motorists. Beltronics offer eight radar detectors in the stores and online auction sites: 4 from the Vector family, 3 from the PRO series (two RX65 and one GX65) and the STi Driver.
All the 8 devices have some common features:
* POP Radar Alert
* Quick Release Windshield Mount
* AutoScan (TM) Filter (with the exception of Vector 940)
* AutoMute on/off
* Startup Fast/Slow
* SWS on/off
* Earphone Jack
* 360 degree Laser
STi Driver Detector
While each radar detector has 2 or 3 city-modes in the US, only 4 (Vector 995, RX65 Red, RX65 Blue and GX65) have Ku-band for Europe. The new STi Driver offers 9 Selectable Features, Dual Radar Antenna Design, Coiled SmartPlug(TM), High Performance Cord, External Amplified Speaker, Hard Travel Case and much more. The most important technical news is the use of TotalShield(TM) Technology. STi Driver is preferred by motorcyclists using it with wireless helmet display.
GX65
Beltronics USA names this product "the most sophisticated radar and laser detector in the world". GX65 delivers the best long-range warning on all radar bands (X, K, Superwide Ka, Ku). The laser sensors provide 360 degree laser protection. The built-in GPS powered technology offers permanent relief from false alarms. Its built-in database is a vault of information: the coordinates of the red light and fixed position speed camera locations in the United States and Canada are preloaded.
