The only real difference between the two, is that the V1 gives you Directional info on the source of the Radar and also tells you when there are multiple radar detections where as the Escort Passport X50 does neither. The V1 also has better Laser detection LIDAR but that really does you no good.

SO THE SIMPLE ANSWER IS

V1 or Passport X50 are the best, the V1 is marginally better and 30% more expensive. Make your own decision, go with one of those, anything less would be uncivilized.

ROFL. That just reminded me of the deodorant commercial that featured Hulk Hogan. Remember that one? LOL

BTW, Beltronics makes both the Passport and the BEL detectors. And BEL has a trade-in policy for up to $80 off, which makes them the best value hands down. The trade is doesn't even have to work but you have to buy direct from BEL.

Also, Overstock.com had the RX65 at a nice price. http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2....bfkY1tgTFYnGLA

Here is what Radarbusters says about the BEL and Escort detectors.
