Customer Reviews For Escort Direct Wire SmartCord for Radar and Laser Detectors |
 Excellent Accessory for the Passport 8500 X50 |
| Review Date: January 22, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Norman E. Wood IV, Lawrenceville, GA |
| I bought this accessory to use with my Escort Passport 8500 X50 radar/laser detector. It allows you to hardwire the power for your detector to the vehicle's fuse box so you don't have a power cord dangling down from the dash and plugged into a cigarette lighter socket. It also provides the same SmartCord remote control module that is on the Passport's included cigarette lighter socket power cord. The remote module has a power LED, an alert LED that flashes when the detector picks up a radar or laser signal, and a mute button. You can mount this module in a convenient location in your vehicle so you can easily mute the detector when it gets a false alert. It also provides you a concealed visual alert so that if you put the detector into "dark mode" (so that others around you can't see you have a detector when driving at night) you will still have a visual alert. |
Smart cord is smart idea

| If you've placed your Passport in the proper location on the windshield, the mute buttom is out of reach. Put the Smart Cord control in reach of the steering wheel and you're good to go. A must have. |

I bought two of these to add radar detectors to my motorcycles. I didn't like the idea of the coiled power cord and with the detector mounted on the RH handlebar, it was not in my direct line of sight. This unit is made for automobiles but the premise is exactly the same. Mount the unit on the dash directly in front of you & the detector can be mounted whereever it is the most efficient. No coiled power cords to dangle about.
I did have to shorten the cord to the unit and put a new RJ11 plug on it, but that is a simple task. There are several alternatives for motorcycles to make the alert warning more visible. All are much more expensive and some are downright inconvenient to use. This is a simple, elegant solution that works very well. Just unplug the unit & change to another bike or your car. The adapter stays on the vehicle & the cord can be safely tucked out of the way. |
must have accessory for 8500

| I wish I would have purchased this 6 years ago when I bought my Escort 8500. Very, very easy to install and I now have my radar wires hidden and the radar unit above my mirror where it works much better. |
An awesome solution to the stock problem

| If you want to use your Escort in multiple cars this is the way to go. Not only does it allow you to hardwire your passport but it frees up the wires from the factory if you want to use in another vehicle. |
