New & Improved Veil G5.10 Now Shipping

New & Improved Veil G5.10 Now Shipping



PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 19, 2016

Veil Corporation, manufacturer of Veil G5, releases new and improved version of Veil G5 called Veil G5.10.

This updated version of Veil G5 has been specifically engineered to counter newer police laser guns which have been making their way into the field--including jam resistant police lasers.

Veil G5.10 has been designed to be most effective in a two coat application process, instead of just one (like previous versions of Veil), to further decrease the targeting range of police laser as well as improve the blocking of infrared imaging used by IR photo enforcement and license plate scanning systems.

This new version of Veil was designed to be lighter and less noticeable than previous versions of Veil when applied to both license plates and headlights.

Controlled testing has shown Veil G5.10 to further reduce the targeting range of headlights with two-coats of Veil G5.10 versus a one-coat of Veil G5--while retaining a similar appearance to a one-coat application of Veil G5.

However, the "tests" that matter most are those conducted in the real-world, against genuine police laser enforcement in real-world targeting scenarios.  Such tests have demonstrated noticeable improvements with Veil G5.10 as a countermeasure to police laser traffic enforcement.

Veil G5.10 is currently shipping and is also available through their authorized dealers.  The retail pricing of Veil G5.10 remains unchanged at $97.95USD.

Veil Guy's in-depth Escort iX Radar Detector Review


Veil Guy's in-depth Escort iX Radar Detector Review

Escort iX
It's been long in the making, but Escort has finally performed a proper makeover of their best selling radar detector of all time, the Passport 9500ix.

While the Passport 9500ix was their most widely popular radar detector, it did come with some shortcomings. Fortunately for all of us, Escort got this new detector right, at the outset, and addressed just about all of them.

Escort's Passport 9500ix finally passes the baton to a proper successor, the Escort iX

By

Escort iX

After nearly eight years--one of the longest product runs years for Escort--the Escort Passport 9500ix is passing the baton to its proper successor, the all new Escort iX.

It's interesting to note that the new Escort iX is lacking the "Passport" moniker like that of the Redline and the Max 360 while still appearing on the X70 and Max2 models.  It's a little confusing in the branding as to why some products are named using Passport and others are not.  Perhaps this will become more apparent as time moves on.

Speaking of time, back in the day, the most annoying sources of false alerts were to stationery X-band and K-band door openers and certain "cheaply" designed radar detectors which were prone to set off other nearby radar detectors to Ka band.

Unfortunately, those days are long gone and have given way to the biggest threat that we radar detector owners face today.  Contrary to what you may be thinking, it isn't the patrol officer down the road operating instant-on police radar, it's the ever increasing use of K-band radar based collision avoidance technology that present so much signal interference.  Why is this such a problem? It's because your radar detector may become unusable.

With this in mind, I am pleased to see the Passport 9500ix be formally retired as its design did not account for this development as this technology simply didn't exist at its inception.

The longevity of the 9500ix had on more than one occasion been called into question and yet it managed to avoid the chopping block as its historical (sales) success could not be denied.

So while a 10 plus year product life-span is most impressive, the simple fact of the matter is that the RF landscape has deteriorated so severely--thanks to the likes of Hella--that newer more advanced approaches had to be engineered.  This brings us to the new Escort iX.
