Next time I go test (perhaps when Theia comes out), I can retest with the filter on and off. Instead we’ve got a test of the settings that I actually use in the real world, not just the settings which are optimized for testing like I did last year. For testing purposes, I do wish that I had also done a set of passes with the Pro M with Ka filter disabled to see how much that would improve things, but honestly I forgot to change that. Last year it managed to beat the V1 Gen1 and Max360c on 34.7 with the filter disabled and so it looks like that does affect the range. ![]() The R7, V1 Gen1, and Redline EX I tested with the Ka filters disabled. I meant to turn it off for testing, but I forgot to do so. As I mentioned it earlier, I ran it with Ka Filter enabled due to some false alerts I’d been getting on Ka. Still plenty of alert distance by all the detectors, but we’re starting to see more separation between detectors now.Īn impressive showing by the new V1 Gen2! Finally we have a detector that can properly take on the R7 on 34.7!Īlso a quick note about the Pro M. Redline EX and V1 Gen 1 each managed one longer detection (but still not R7 or V1 Gen2 range) with the other two detections being closer to the Max 360c and Pro M. ![]() The results were virtually identical, with one slightly shorter run with the R7, likely due to traffic. V1 Gen2 and R7 both managed long distance alerts every time. After we finished, we moved the radar car maybe 50 feet forward to obscure it behind a bush to block some of the signal (it limited the radar gun’s detection distance downrange too of course), and this helped create a little more separation between tiers of detectors. ![]() For 33.8, the radar gun had pretty clear line of sight downrange. I wanted to get more separation between detectors (most everything was alerting near the red barn) so I modified the radar gun placement for subsequent runs to make things harder. It’s certainly good to know that depending on conditions and terrain, different detectors with varying sensitivity can alert right around the same spot, but that doesn’t help us understand which detectors have the best sensitivity. So R7 and V1 Gen2 are the most sensitive, but the test course is set up such that we can’t really see a big difference between detectors. The R7 got the longest distance alerts, followed by the V1 Gen2, and everyone else clustered together. Starting off, here’s a look at the results on 33.8: (I reduced it to 2 per detector / settings combo on K band to save time.) This is one of the main reasons I ran 3 runs per detector on Ka. Cars can and do affect the detection ranges so results may vary. Maximum detection range is about half a mile. It’s a relatively difficult course with a few bends and trees blocking the signal. The test course is the tried and true red barn test course. Ka filters on the V1 Gen2 and Max 360c are always enabled and can’t be disabled. I meant to disable it for the Pro M, but I forgot since I normally run with it on, unlike the other detectors where I normally run it off. You can’t disable them for the Max360c and V1 Gen2 so it’s always running with Ka filters. I also ran with the Ka filters disabled for the V1 Gen1, R7, and Redline EX. Detectors were segmented 2/5/8 when it made a difference (V1 Gen1, Redline EX, Uniden R7, Radenso Pro M).
