Test Heading

The Laser Jamming performance is assigned to the SR7 Plus only, which inlcudes the ZR3 Laser Shifter, permitting the SR7 to jam laser guns. The standard SR7 provides only laser detection.

Product Tests

The Escort SR7 is a great Remote mounted radar detector. It is 100% invisible to VG2 RDD, but not invisible to Spectre II, Spectre III and Stalcar RDD (used in Australia). Performance ratings discussed below.

Radar – We logged a typical 8 mile distance detection of Ka radar on flat terrain. This is good detection sensitivity. Detecting hidden radar traps “Over the Hill” and “Around Blind Curves” is important. We found the higher the SR7 is installed, the better the radar detection performance. If you have a ski rack, consider installing above for superb radar detection on X, K and Ka radar bands. The SR7 is average at filtering out false noise alerts. False alerts can be minimized by turning off X band radar detection, but we also discovered that some police are resorting back to X band radar, knowing that many drivers turn X band off. We suggest that you drive with X band on in New Jersey due to their continued use of X band. The SWS detector alerts (special K band safety alerts) when turned on and selected, will alert you to road hazards and construction; if the SWS transmitter technology is used by road crews and ambulances. We found that we would often encounter road hazard situations, but sometimes the Bel did not alert due to the SWS technology not being used by the road crews and ambulances. POP3 can not be detected by the SR7 or the Passport SR7 Plus.

Laser - During our road tests, we encountered a few laser alerts from police. Since the SR7 detects laser from the grille, it can detect every laser aimed at your vehicle. But detecting laser by itself is not sufficient, since detecting laser only tells you that the police aimed the very narrow light beam at your vehicle, you detected it and they have your speed. The Driver must detect laser and jam it in order to protect your self from police laser guns. We also found false laser alerts with no police anywhere nearby. The false laser alerts are caused by bright, repetitive reflections off the white painted road stripes at the center of the highway. It is also caused by bright reflections off the metal side rails along side the highway. This false noise does not occur very often and is caused by sunlight reflections, guardrail reflections. If you want laser protection, buy the M25 Laser Jammer or M45 laser jammer and install the products into the grille, where the police aim laser guns.
