Whistler pro-78se review by "veil guy" 2009

I first took serious notice of Whistler several years ago when I witnessed one of their earlier models outperform a certain blue-tooth enabled remote radar detector that, at the time, retailed for more than 10 times Whistler's  price.

Since then, I have had the pleasure of owning (and reviewing) newer and improved Whistler radar detectors including the Whistler Pro 78/Whistler XTR-690 (both introduced two years ago) and the Whistler XTR-695 (introduced nearly a year ago). Whistler has continued with its recent tradition of affording me the privilege of an advanced look at their new (and much anticipated) flagship production models that are currently making their way to retailers and specialized Internet dealers. For 2009, three related Whistler radar detector models are especially noteworthy, the Whistler Pro-78 SE, the Whistler XTR-690 SE, and the Whistler XTR-695 SE

As the new model names suggest, each of these new radar detectors appear to represent an evolutionary design improvement over its previous model and hence have not merited an entirely new model number designation. Instead, these new Whistlers end with an SE designation, which may stand for Special Edition. That is, of course, not to say that these new radar detectors don't represent significant improvement (over their predecessors) simply because the underlying model numbers haven't changed, they do ...

Conclusion

What Whistler has accomplished in its reception to Ka radar is nothing short of remarkable ...

With the introduction of these three new detectors, Whistler has fortified their position as the provider of the greatest values in radar detector ownership.

I am going to continue keeping my eye on Whistler; they are definitely on the ball and on the move!

Whistler PRO-78 quotes and feedback

"Particularly with Ka from the front, when compared to one of the Beltronics STi Drivers, when POP was OFF, the Whistler Pro-78 tended to be the first to respond" Veil Guy review.

"The Pro 78 has an even wider array of user-selectable features... The Filter settings are particularly useful in reducing false alarms although even without them, the Whistler is quieter than the competition (less false alerts" Craig Peterson of Radar Tests, March 2008 review.

"More importantly, the Whistler Pro 78 equalled the V1's range on both X and Ka band, an achievement of some significance for a detector with a price one third as much." Craig Peterson of Radar Tests, March 2008 review.

"After crunching the numbers it's clear that the Pro 78 can handily dispatch its competition from Cobra and is easily the best-performing Whistler I've tested. Its stellar showing compared to the... Valentine One is a testament to the fact that for the first time, a value-priced model can just about run with the big dogs." Craig Peterson of Radar Tests, March 2008 review.

"I have driven nearly a half of million miles — in my 27 plus years of driving ¬ many of those miles while in possession of one radar detector or another. Not until now, have I encountered a radar detector so chock-full-of-features and as capable at either of the Whistler Pro-78 or Whistler XTR-690 for so little money." Veil Guy review.

It is my opinion that these new Whistler radar detectors represent two of the greatest values in radar detector ownership, today. VeilGuy – August 2007

In a nutshell, the levels of performance that the Whistler Pro 78 and Whistler XTR-690 achieve, in some cases, are simply astounding considering that my comparison radar detector was a Beltronics STi Driver. VeilGuy – August 2007

I must give Kudos to the engineers at Whistler for certainly raising the bar… Radar Roy – June 2007

“the Ka sensitivity (with POP mode detection OFF) was now similar to that of the Bel STi Driver, and even outperformed the STi in some cases." VeilGuy – July 2007

A recent independent test substantiates our results seen here in Australia. Some suppliers continue to show out of date and widely inaccurate results using misleading scales to zoom to a small section of results. Below are tests from a recent US based test.
