Well I'm done with this thread as it's clear you are not even trying to understand any of it and are COMPLETELY misinterpreting nearly everything I say.
I will say that there are MULTIPLE tests (most recent one I've seen was motortrend's) that show the 8500 x50 and the V1 to have almost the exact same range (each detector does a little better than the other on certain ranges/conditions). THOUGH the 8500 has less false alarms. Less FALSE alarms means a detector that is more reliable IF the alarms are truly FALSE. I don't know the technology and neither do you about how detector companies keep detectors from constantly beeping but obviously they do it, some more effectively than others. And some detectors (such as the 8500) show what frequency it is, so if say it's k band and it's not 24.15 then you can continue at your speed. It also shows multiple signals at once if you care for it to do so. Though that's getting off topic. My point is that's it's been shown that detectors can have less false alarms and just as good/better range than other detectors. If you don't care to believe that, that's your choice.
Like I said before less FALSE alarms isn't the only factor in choosing a radar detector, but more false alarms DOES NOT means it's a better detector. But somehow you are trying to say it does, which you have yet to explain.
PM me if you really care to carry this crap on.
