Well I knew it was just a matter of time before Rayee Technologies Cheap Ass Radar Detectors would start appearing on US websites once they made their debut at the CES show in Las Vegas a few weeks ago.
The RadarShield website has begun marketing devices that look very similar to Rayee’s radar detectors as the Ghost, the Ghost Pro and the Escort 9500ix knock off, the SkyEye on their website.
The bogus claims that this company makes on their website is almost laughable but I know some uneducated consumer will fall for the bogus claims of “Guaranteed Best Radar Detector”, “Never Get Stopped for Speeding”, “Will Out Perform all other Radar Detectors” and “We’ll Pay You 100% of Your Speeding Ticket”
The Oregon Secretary of State’s Office shows in January of 2007 RadarShield Technologies LLC filed their articles of organization. The business address is listed as 14525 SW Millikan Way, RCM #20271, Beaverton, Oregon and the registered agent is Nir Steel.
Further research on this address shows that a company called Earth Class Mail is located at this same address offering a service where they will scan your incoming postal mail into PDFs and email them to you.
Radar Shield also further hides their true identity by registering their domain with “Domains by Proxy, Inc.” to hide the owners names and addresses of the websites.
However, I suspect that once the “GPS Enabled Radar Detector” begins shipping that some high powered attorney will seek Mr. Steel out and a process server will pay a visit with a tall stack of legal papers explaining that he is being sued for patent infringement.

Just curious, but what exactly does Escort have patented regarding GPS-enabled radar detectors? It was my understanding that Uniden was the first company to release a GPS-enabled radar detector a couple of years ago (something like 1/2 to 1 year before Escort’s Passport 9500i), and they still make at least two models, from what I can see.

You’re correct that Uniden was the first company that added GPS functionability into a radar detector, however the features that Escort uses today were not available them , such as the ability for the user to add/delete speed traps into a database.
Also Escort’s Patent involves the inclusion of the GPS directly into the radar detector. The models that Uniden and Cobra are both making involve an external GPS module that plugs into the detector.

Roy, although I’ve never actually tested or used a Radarshield unit, it’s a little presumptuous to claim it’s “crap” off the bat.
I also don’t see how registering a domain privately is such a problem. Many of my own domains I registered privately.
Many people also open companies in Oregon for tax reasons – maybe that’s changed under Obama, I don’t know much else about it.
Anyway, this blog is something I’d expect to see coming from a tabloid, not from an allegedly experienced person in this industry.
Hell, just buy one and then say it sucks. Maybe it does, but until you try it you’ll never know.
Mark, I don’t have to try the “RadarShield” I know who manufactured it and I’m familiar with their products.
And as far as “hiding” your identity and location is of concern. If I have a problem with your product and/or service how do I find you?
It’s a piece of shitttt!!!
If you DON’T BUY ANYTHING from them!!!!
IT’S an INTERNET SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
