Escort Redline Radar Detector Review
My opinion
Escort Redline
Imagine you have to make a rush to a hospital, or you have some other legitimate emergency. There's really no need to receive a ticket and give money to a cop that's obviously trying to make revenue and is not actually policing traffic on an empty highway (happened to me several times). Now that's why I purchased Escort Redline radar detector. Most of the reviews I've seen on places like Amazon were positive.
Honestly, I managed to save several thousand dollars in fines. Escort Redline is hands down the most sensitive detector on the market at the moment. I have measured detection up to six miles on flat open roads. But, Escort Redline detection ability is really superior over hills and around corners. Escort Redline has exceptional off-axis detection, and easily picks up signals from 90 degree angles. It also works fine with false detections in the city.

Features
Escort RedLine includes K, X, SuperWide Ka, and Safety Warning System radar capability, front and rear laser detection, dual antenna with varactor-tuned (VTO) microwave receiver, digital signal processing (DSP) for better range and reduced false alarms. Patented Mute and AutoMute technology on the cord allows you to promptly silence alerts without reaching for the detector. You can use the quick release mount to attach it to your vehicle's windshield. There's an Escort Redline radar detector (Black), an owner's manual, a quick reference card, a quick-release windshield mount with suction cups and a coiled SmartCord in a travel case.
What I don't like about Escort RedLine is the standard coil cord that comes with it. Its bulky and puts a lot of torsion on the detector prying it off the windshield. They should really include the direct wire cord or at least a straight wire cord. But you can purchase that separately if you need it - it's cheap.
