Escort Radar designed the Qi45 Radar Detector for Quick Installation and is reviewed by 1stRadarDetectors. Call us for questions at 303-678-9101. Escort Radar Detector is a well recognized company for leading edge technology. The PASSPORT Qi45, code name Quick Install, is a radar detector that was developed after months of consumer and dealer research, which revealed that over 53% of radar customers prefer a custom-installed radar detector and laser detector. With that kind of demand, Escort Radar engineers went to work.
Installation time is significantly reduced. Most custom installed radar detectors also referred to as remote radar detectors, require time for installation — 3-6 hours depending on the level of customization and vehicle type. As install shop rates climb, any reduction in the installation time and helps to reduce customer costs. The Escort Qi45 was designed to be installed in 1 hour or less! How’s that for reducing installation time?
And if you hide the Passport Qi45 up on your passenger sun visor, you will double the radar detection performance over those people who install the radar module down in the grille. The higher the radar module above the road surface, the better the signal reception. And 1stRadarDetectors includes a simple radar detector visor holder in this package to hide the Qi45 radar detector up on the sun visor, hidden from view.
How did Escort Radar Detector achieve this simpler, installation? First, Escort Radar designed a single wire solution from the front receiver to the vehicle’s interior. Next, they completely redesigned the interface module, incorporating the audio circuit and speaker which reduced its size and minimized the number of connections. Simply zip-tie the interface up under the dash, connect it to the 12Vdc supply at the fuse box and plug in the display and receiver connectors. All the connections are plugged in using modular RJ11, plug and play connectors for the ultimate in convenience.
Escort Radar then modified the Shifter ZR4, laser jammer. It is a Shifter Pack with two laser shifters in the kit. The shifter pack is plugged into the Escort Qi45 interface. The Shifter ZR4 two pack is priced at $249.95 additional.
Or the optional Laser Jammer, Blinder X-Treme, M27 laser jammer can be combined with the Qi45 radar detector. Blinder X-Treme operates beside the Qi45 radar detector, but is not plugged into the Passport Qi45. Typically retailed at $979.90, the Blinder M27 is discounted $30 when you buy this combo package.
