"12 Volt" Power Outlet in my Tesla Model S Plaid Has Burned Out 3 ~$1000 Escort Redline 360c detectors

I run mine into a fused port. If anything blows is the fused port. Not the radar.

A fuse protects over current. It will not protect from over voltage, unless that over voltage creates an over current situation.

That's good to know. I've been a big fan of the escort max 360 line and in particular the redline max 360c as it just has such superior range and direction detection capabilities. Still waiting to get the final word from Escort, but people should know that neither their high-end max 360 line of radar detectors nor the accessory camera can tolerate the 15-16v output the Tesla kicks out in the low voltage outlet. It just really sucks. $1000 a pop down the drain, plus a ticket...

Where do you live where they are$1000 each ? if You order them direct from escort it’s only $749…
