Escort Passport 8500 X50

The Escort Passport 8500 X50 is a top-of-the-line radar detector that can detect all of the radar bands that are currently in use in North America including the X, K and Ka bands.

POP radar is a technology used by law enforcement agencies that made a whole generation of radar detectors obsolete. The POP radar guns operate at a very low frequency when they are turned on to record a vehicle's speed with incredibly fast accuracy. With the Escort Passport 8500 X50, those types of radar guns are not a problem at all, as it offers POP radar protection and has outstanding sensitivity to detect the low frequencies of POP.

You are provided with warning tones that get progressively louder as you get nearer to the threat on the X50. Each separate radar band has a distinct tone that makes it super easy for you to discern threats.

The Escort Passport 8500 X50 is very well adept at minimizing false alarms that can be picked up by automatic garage door openers, home security systems and microwave towers.

You're offered nine customizable settings on the 8500 X50. When in the settings mode the LCD display becomes the menu system that allows you to control the auto mute, brightness, audio tones and power on modes. In the expert mode, you will get a constant reading of the intensity of the signal being received.

If you live in a state that prohibits the use of radar detectors on the roads, the 8500 includes VG-2 radar detector-detector protection.

The unit itself is very well designed with the controls easy to access. You're offered three types of warning displays to choose from.

The Escort Passport 8500 X50 is a very accurate, precise and affordable radar detector that will make your drives hassle-free. Worrying about speed traps will be a thing of the past when you travel with the 8500 X50.
