Valentine One for the win!!

There are big problems with the new Escort 9500i and the majority of people are returning them because of less range than the Valentine One and the 8500X50.

They are locking out signals from door openers and the 9500i is not alerting to cops that shoot radar in that area. Owners of the 9500i are also complaining that signals that they lock out are not staying locked out from the day before. They also say that their Sirius/XM radio is cutting out because of the 9500i and its GPS function.

Are you satisfied with your 9500i or returning it?Satisfied with 38% [ 21 ]Returning 61% [ 34 ]Total Votes : 55


Call Valentine Research at 1 800 331 3030 and ask for a returned V1 and you will get 10% off the retail price of $399. It will be the latest version V1.8 POP2 w/ Euro-mode and 3.863 firmware and that comes with all the accessories and a 1 year warranty.

Grow up and use punctuation. Also, you are missing an apostrophe in "that's" and please spell out "information" in full.

Leaving off punctuation on forum posts is a new laziness in modern culture. If you are not on a cellphone and have a full keyboard at your disposal, spelling out 3 letter words wont kill you. But thanks for your input, you must be my daddy...

If you drive in Virginia, you better have a hidden unit, such as a K40, among the top of the line in radar detectors/laser protection.
