Packaging –
What’s Included
Beltronics
RX65 Pro
The packaging
includes the radar detector; detachable
power cord; lighter adapter with
power and alert LEDs and single push
button mute and remote volume level
adjustment; windshield mount;
aluminum travel case; replacement
suction cups; manual; and quick
reference/programming card.
Escort 8500
X50 (Red)
The packaging
includes the radar detector; detachable
power cord; lighter adapter with
power and alert LEDs and single push
button mute; European power adapter;
windshield mount; nice travel case;
replacement suction cups; manual; and
quick reference/programming
card.
Valentine One
v1.8 /w POP2
The packaging
includes the radar detector; two detachable
power cords (one coiled and one
straight); somewhat bulky/pivoting
lighter adaptor that comes with
user-replaceable modular fuse (nice
touch) which can also power the
optional remote display head-unit;
permanent wiring kit; windshield
& visor mount; replacement
suction cups; manual; and spare
fuse.
Overall, the
packages were complete. We would have
liked to see the European adapter
included in the Beltronics package as
the radar detector has Ku-band capability.
The adapter was included with the
8500 X50 even though it doesn’t
currently provide for Ku
reception.
The manuals of
both the Escort & Bel were almost
identical. Perhaps a little too
similar as we caught a couple of
items in the Bel manual that only
applied to the Escort radar detector. The
Valentine’s manual appeared somewhat
stale and outdated. It would be nice
if they included a quick
reference/programming guide like the
ones provided by Bel and Escort
especially when you consider that
programming changes on the V1 are a
bit more complicated to perform than
either the Bel or Escort. The
Valentine doesn’t come with any sort
of travel/carrying case – it is
offered as an option.
