Default Testing the Xtr 695 vs. Kustoms K12 radar gun

Did some testing a few days ago and just got around to getting it uploaded it just a bit ago. I feel that the radar gun uses is low powered and there would have been greater detection range if a better radar gun was used.

I will have more tests coming soon between the Whistler Xtr 695, Escort Solo II (battery and hardwired) and Beltronics Vector 980.

Thumbs up Re: Testing the Xtr 695 vs. Kustoms K12 radar gun

Considering the lower-power gun, thats a pretty damn good detection and ramp-up given the distance, terrain, and obstacles.

Good test!

Nice work. Now...find a longer road. You basically alerted as soon as he triggered. Find a longer road and I'll bet you get longer hits. My sig shows what I've gotten with a Pro-78.

I just realized I have a nice 5.5 mile road with some dips and elevations next to my new house it is perfect for this test.

I hope that radar gun has the range so the detectors can see who wins.

Maybe tommorrow I can do the test if I have time.

Yeah, the relatively low power of the gun may foil your attempts, but it's worth a try.
