ESCORT Inc. Recruits Professional InstallerNet to Support Custom Installed Radar Detectors

9500ci and InstallerNet InstallCard

West Chester, OH (PRWEB) August 25, 2009

ESCORT Inc., maker of the world’s best radar and laser detectors, announced today the tactical recruitment of InstallerNet, a Boston-based company that coordinates installation of consumer electronics through the largest network of independently owned mobile and home electronics installers in the United States, to help support customer installations of their products. “For savvy customers who want the ultimate protection from radar and laser threats, our custom installed defense systems are the decisive, absolute best in protection technology,” said Tim Coomer, ESCORT’s Vice-president of New Product Development. “The owners of these sophisticated products, our customers, need the best option for having their new ESCORT detection systems professionally installed – InstallerNet fills that option. ESCORT customers are aware consumers who drive vehicles commensurate with their successful lifestyles. We wanted to match our customers’ high end vehicles and our state of the art products with InstallerNet, the best, high end professional installation available,” Coomer added.

InstallerNet will provide the company’s proprietary InstallCards, giving ESCORT customers the ability to purchase high quality professional custom installation from a local provider at a pre-determined price right along with their radar and laser detectors, without having to find and negotiate with the installer themselves. ESCORT customers activate their InstallCards and schedule installation with one of InstallerNet’s 3,500 certified installers nationwide, either on-line or toll free.

InstallerNet backs the appointment with professional customer service, and the best warranties in the business.

The InstallCard is currently being offered by ESCORT with the sale of their SmartMirror™, PASSPORT 9500ci™ and Laser Shifter ZR4™ custom installed products.

“We’re excited about our new partnership with ESCORT and the value we’ll bring to their customers,” said Tony Frangiosa, InstallerNet President and CEO. “Our nationwide network of installers, trained and certified on ESCORT radar and laser detector installation, helps ensure not only the highest levels of product performance but satisfied customers.”

The World’s Best Custom Installed Radar Detectors

Known as the category leader and innovator, ESCORT has developed many industry ‘firsts’ including the world’s first internet ready, GPS based custom installed radar detector – the PASSPORT 9500ci custom-installed radar and laser defense system.

The PASSPORT 9500ci is a complete integrated radar and laser defense system. Once installed, it is completely hidden from unwanted attention, yet delivers the ultimate protection. Incorporated into its design is a new dual antenna, which provides the industry’s best long-range warning against all radar guns. Its receiver is also completely undetectable to all known scanning devices, making the 9500ci the stealthiest custom-installed detector in the world. Laser protection is accomplished by multiple sensors mounted front and rear of the vehicle. These laser sensors also have “Shifting” capability, which significantly reduce the affect of a targeting laser gun.

The 9500ci also address the single fastest growing threat drivers face today – the increasing numbers of fixed position speed and red light cameras. The 9500ci meets this expanding new threat by incorporating the ESCORT Defender™ database, which identifies these threats well in advance.

The ESCORT product line, including all of their custom installed models like the PASSPORT 95000ci, are available at fine retailers everywhere or can be ordered direct from ESCORT. For more information on PASSPORT custom installed radar detectors, visit Escortinc.com or call 800.433.3487.

e-radardetectors.com Launches New Website to Provide Online Guide to Radar Detectors

Venice, CA (PRWEB) August 28, 2005

E-radardetectors.com recently announced the launch of a new website, http://www.e-radardetectors.com, which provides comprehensive information about radar detectors, best radar detectors, wholesale radar detectors and related information.

According to e-radardetectors.com, although no system is 100% effective, there are several good models on the market to help evade the notice of a radar gun. Cobra, Escort, Whistler, BEL, and Valentine are among the most popular brands of radar detectors for speed demons and electronic enthusiasts.

Police have long used radars to track the speed of drivers and to help maintain safe roads. Meanwhile, many drivers have begun using radar detectors to help avoid costly fines for speeding violations. Radar detectors have become an extremely popular piece of technology for drivers. With quality detectors running several hundred dollars, the perceived high cost of these devices has the potential to drive away consumers. In reality, consumers can purchase wholesale radar detectors through many venues, especially online.

According to e-radardetectors.com, standard radar detectors were not built for motorcycles and were never intended to be used on them. Most detectors use an audio device to inform the driver that radar had been detected, and are therefore inappropriate for motorcycle riders because they cannot be heard. Furthermore, most have long cords and poor mounting options, not to mention the fact that they are not weatherproof.

e-radardetectors.com will be constantly updated about radar detectors to help educate readers about what products and services might be best for them.

About e-radardetectors.com

Radar Detectors provides comprehensive information on best wholesale and retail motorcycle and cordless radar detectors. For more information go to http://www.e-radardetectors.com and/or visit its sister site at http://www.e-defensivedriving.com for related information.

E-RadarDetectors.com Provides an Overview of Motorcycle Radar Detectors

(PRWEB) October 8, 2005

According to E-RadarDetectors.com, standard radar detectors were not built for motorcycles and were never intended to be used on them. Most detectors use an audio device to inform the driver that radar had been detected, and are therefore inappropriate for motorcycle riders because they cannot be heard.

Manufacturers now produce cordless detectors with an earphone jack so that the rider can hear alerts. For instance, BEL has released a model specifically for motorcycles, while Escort and Whistler make models with earphone jacks.

The Escort Passport 8500 X50 is among the most popular for motorcycle riders. In addition to an ear phone jack, this model is highly sensitive to X-band, K-band and Ka-band radars. When set in its “ExpertMeter” mode, this model allows the rider to see up to eight radar signals, as well as their individual bands and strengths, simultaneously. In addition, the display brightness settings include a “dark mode” for stealth use. One method of installation for this model is to tie the 8500 into the rider’s helmet speakers using a common universal stereo mini-plug patch cord. The unit can be mounted with suction cups to the windshield.

Although the niche for motorcycle radar detectors continues to grow, most models will still lack in at least one area. Thankfully, most detector retailers sell attachments that allow cordless models to be converted for use with motorcycles.

ESCORT “Cash for Clunkers” program for a limited time

West Chester, OH (PRWEB) September 8, 2009

ESCORT Inc., maker of the world’s best radar and laser detectors, announced today an added incentive for drivers using older model radar detectors — “Cash for Clunkers” radar detector Trade-In program. For a limited time, ESCORT radar will give customers $ 80 credit when they trade in their old out-dated detector on a new one from ESCORT. “We are excited about the opportunity to offer customers an easy way to increase their protection and get paid for doing it!” said Tim Coomer, ESCORT’s Vice-president of Marketing. “Just like the incentive to trade older cars for more fuel efficient models, we want radar detector owners to trade their old detectors for new technology that offers complete protection against all the latest threats,” he added. “Most drivers, who are using older detectors, are not aware that they are driving around with a false sense of security because they don’t receive signals from the latest threats,” said Coomer.

ESCORT’s “Cash for Clunkers” Trade-In program applies to any brand detector when purchased directly from ESCORT.

ESCORT “Cash for Clunkers” Trade-In program — just makes good sense

Like other consumer electronics, law enforcement radar and laser guns have changed dramatically over time. And because those changes alter the guns’ characteristics, older detectors cannot detect them and therefore won’t alert. ESCORT continues to drive innovation by developing new technologies and incorporating them into their products to meet these challenges.

ESCORT–owner of more than 85% of all radar detector patents

ESCORT Inc. is the undisputed leader in designing and adopting new innovations and patented radar detector technologies. ESCORT has an industry winning radar detector designed to meet all of the latest threats. For example, ESCORT developed the world’s first internet ready, GPS based radar detectors–the PASSPORT 9500ix windshield mount model and the PASSPORT 9500ci custom-installed version. Both models established a new technology standard by introducing patented features including AutoLearn™ artificial intelligence. AutoLearn™ uses GPS technology to automatically eliminate false alerts by indexing their exact location and frequency.

Both the PASSPORT 9500ix and the 9500ci radar detectors are designed to alert to red light and fixed position speed cameras. “The majority of radar detectors being used can’t alert to the fastest growing threat drivers face today — the rapid increase in the number of red light and fixed position speed cameras being installed all across North America!” said Coomer. Both detectors meet this ever-increasing risk by incorporating the ESCORT Defender™ database, which identifies these threats well in advance. In addition, the Defender™ database includes the top speed traps throughout North America. The Defender™ database can be easily updated through the ESCORT website.

Redline™–the longest radar detector range on the planet

Always innovating, ESCORT has just released the all new RedLine™ radar and laser detector. For ultimate long range sensitivity, RedLine’s™ test-shattering performance represents another leap forward in detector technology for the industry. The sensitivity of the new RedLine™ can be attributed to its unique “twin turbo” receiver design which incorporates a patented twin antennae system and dual LNA’s (low noise amplifiers). This technique allows RedLine™ to provide unprecedented range and performance by band, which provides the earliest warning possible. RedLine™ is the new long range champion. RedLine™ begins shipping in mid-September.

Full details for the direct sales only ESCORT radar detector “Cash for Clunkers” Trade-In program and all of ESCORT’s performance leading radar detectors and complete line of other products can be seen at Escortinc.com or call direct at 800.433.3487.
