Youâve finally come to the conclusion that a radar detector is the right product for you at this time. Like many others, perhaps you have grown tired of constantly checking your side and rear mirrors when driving on the highway, or maybe there are speed traps or red light cameras popping up in the neighborhoods you travel through every day. Whatever the reason, it is spot on to understand that a radar detector, such as the new Escort Redline, is the best way to gain ultimate confidence on the road.
Finding the right radar detector accessories for your Escort Redline radar detector is relatively easy; it just takes a little analysis of your driving habits and the conditions in which you drive. First and foremost, and most easily determined, is deciding if your radar detector will stay and be used in one vehicle only.  For other radar detectors, which are made to mount on the dash, you may want to purchase a windshield mount kit for easy use interchanged between more than one vehicle. The Escort Redline is set up to be a windshield mount detector, and therefore would be best served by radar detector accessories such as extra suction cups for the time when the original suction cups start to lose their strength. Luckily for those whose mode of transportation is on two wheels, the Escort Redline detector is adaptable to use on a motorcycle. Radar detector accessories like the Motorcycle Adapter and the Earphone are super popular. The motorcycle adapter is ideal, as it allows the radar detector earphone jack to feed warning signals through most motorcycle intercom systems. All that is needed is a 1/8 inch jack. The Escort Motorcycle Adapter comes with a 9 foot long cord that gives ample length for wiring your system. The Earphone will boost the volume from the Escort Redline through a jack that goes from the detector directly to the earphone. Because the Escort Redline is a detector that uses the lighter as its power source, clearly the lighter would not be able to be used for other things. In order to solve any problems and maximize the power of your lighter, there is the option of adding a Dual 12 Volt Lighter Socket Adapter. Of all the radar detector accessories available, this has got to be the one that gives you the most flexibility. With the Lighter Adapter, you can charge your radar detector and your cel phone at the same time.
For any detector, there are radar detector accessories galore. Some eliminate the detector sitting on the dash by giving it a home on the windshield; others lend flexibility and convenience. The bottom line is that through the myriad of accessories available, one can extend the functionality of their radar detector with ease, and therefore make their driving experience a safer one. By carefully choosing your own radar detector and then choosing the right accessories to go along with it, you can rule the road and feel confident that your equipment will operate to its highest potential.
