ace-101's Full Review: Escort Passport 8500 X50 Radar Detector
The Passport 8500 works well when it works.  They have a design flaw that costs $85 to fix!  IT OVER HEATS AND GOES INTO SAFE MODE in about a half hour.  Started after is was about 1 year old.  The fix is only fixing it with the same parts that didn't last in the first place, duh!  I am not the only one with this problem.  I personally know others, have seen it listed on the web as a problem and if you call Escort it is like, Oh yeah, we can fix it.  They should do a recall and fix it for free.  Will not buy another Escort they don't back what they sell.
