Whistler XTR-695 Laser/Radar Detector with Radar Signature ID, Laser Signature ID, 7-Color Display, Real Voice Alerts and External Audio Jack
- Alert Priority
- Selectable Vehicle Battery Saver
- Radar Signature ID (RSID) – Indicates Ka 33.8, 34.0, 34.3, 34.7 or 35.5 on the display when police radar alerts are detected within these common Ka speed radar windows. Alerts that fall outside of these parameters will be reported only as Ka.
- Whistler Exclusive Laser Signature ID (LSID) – Laser Identifier may indicate the Pulses Per Second (PPS) transmitted by Speed Laser or other forms of laser sources.
- Custom Multi-band Selectable Display can be set so that each Band alert can be a different color (I.e. K Band Alerts in Blue, X Band Alerts in Purple, Ka band Alerts in Green, etc.), or Scroll ALL colors while alarming.
Product Description
Whistler’s Pro-Series Line! Can Whistler improve for 2009? YES! Our new SE versions of our high performance units include a feature called “Ka Max” mode. This feature improves on our already impressive Ka perfromance. All the SE models include our popular features – Radar Signal ID (RSID) and Laser Signal ID (LSID).Amazon.com Product Description
Whistler’s XTR-695 is a detector that maximizes sensitivity and minimizes falsing. Ka Max Mode gives you improved Ka Band sensitivity. Radar Signature ID displays known Ka gun frequencies to help distinguish threats, and Laser Signature ID does the same by displaying pulses per second of received laser signals. Take advantage of 360-degree coverage for all radar and laser bands, Whistler’s patented POP-mode detection, and a wealth of bonus features like a 72-point digital compass and vehicle battery voltmeter.

7 Color Backlit LCD Text Display
The XTR-695′s brilliant text display provides distinct visual confirmation of signals detected, signal strength, and indicates engaged modes of operation. You can choose from 7 different display colors for a bit of personalization, even assigning a different color for each band, or scrolling colors.
Filter Mode
There are times when a radar detector can emit the same frequency as police radar and can cause your detector to falsely alarm. Sometimes a detector can display a signal when picking up another radar detector in vehicle close by. The Whistler Filter Mode checks the signal to verify if it’s a legitimate police radar or a false alert from another detector.
Auto Dim Mode
The Auto Dim feature automatically switches the illumination of the text display between the bright and dim settings according to varying light conditions so that the text display will always be easy to read.
INTELLICORD Ready
Add the Whistler INTELLICORD and you’ll be able to remotely control the radar detector in settings such as power on/off, city modes, dim/dark and quiet/auto quiet with a simple press of a button.
Real Voice Alerts
Real Voice provides added information to the detected signal over and above the simple band ID tones from internal speaker. Click to enlarge. |
7 different display colors. Click to enlarge. |
Real Voice provides added information to the detected signal over and above the simple band ID tones. The unit says “X band” when it detects an X band signal. This allows you to keep your eyes on-the-road. Real Voice is also used to articulate Safety Warning System messages and feature selections. Real Voice will be used to articulate the following:
- Band Identification
- Safety Warning System messages
- Feature Selection
Low Profile Alert Periscopes
Whistler’s Low Profile Alert Periscopes provide an added attention getting visual alert. The two extra LEDs flash on and off when the unit alarms to provide a unique visual alert.
3 City Modes/Highway Mode
Highway mode provides full audio and visual warning of laser/radar systems while maintaining full sensitivity. Highway mode is the default setting of all Whistler’s laser/radar detectors. City mode helps reduce the annoyance of automatic door openers and burglar alarm alerts by providing an initial alert (same distance as Highway Mode) then remaining quiet unless the signal strength becomes very strong. When the signal increases the unit will alert briefly to notify you of the change in signal strength.
Stay Alert
The Stay Alert feature is designed to test a driver’s alertness. Within 30 to 60 seconds after the feature is engaged an alert is sounded; to show alertness, the driver must press the volume, city or the mute button within 3-5 seconds. If a button is pressed within 3-5 seconds, the cycle is repeated. If a button was not pressed within 3-5 seconds the unit alarms at full volume and the display shows an unique visual alert.
Quiet/Auto Quiet Modes
Pressing QUIET before a signal is detected engages Auto Quiet Mode, which automatically reduces the audio level after the initial warning to a low audio level setting. Pressing QUIET during a radar/laser encounter silences audio alerts, while allowing visual alerts to keep you informed.
Alert Priority
When two or more signals are received at the same time, the alert priority is: Laser, VG-2, Speed Radar, Safety Radar.
Example: If X band is alerting, then suddenly a VG-2 signal is detected, the VG-2 warning will override the X band alert.
Vehicle Battery Saver Mode
The Vehicle Battery Saver Mode automatically shuts off your detector within 3 hours if you forget to turn it off. The timer is reset if the detector is turned off, unplugged or any button is pressed before the 6 hours have expired. The detector will alert you with an audible and visual warning before it shuts off.
Safety Warning System–SWS
This relatively new radar is not for speed detection at all, it is used to keep you informed of highway safety. Transmitters are installed and programmed (for example: in emergency vehicles) to make you aware of possible situations that may require your attention, such as: ambulance vehicles that are moving or stationary, road hazards ahead, road construction delays or detours, etc.

I ordered a Whistler XTR-695SE radar detector as listed on Amazon website. What I got was a Whistler XTR-695. Amazon claimed they made a mistake in their listing. Does any one check their listings before posting them? I had to go thtough all the trouble of returning the WRONG item because they made the mistake. Kind of looks like bait and switch to me. Word of warning, make sure the item you order is what they are going to deliver. They did eventually refund me my money but what a hassle for their mistake!!

The compass does not work at all even after I calibrated it several times in different locations. It display E most times even when I made turns or for sure drove toward North or West. The degree changed, but it is ridiculous for user to know it’s heading north when it showed E 90, right? Well, I am in the city and it is hard to find a place that has no power lines.
True, this is radio detector not a compass. However, it made me doubt its accuracy and quality overall. I recently passed a few hidden police officers in their favorite spots for speeding tickets, but this device did not show any responses. Well, it could be that the police was not using the radar, that’s weird, because I know they were targeting speeding. In a few other cases it displayed the frequencies of Ka but I could not find any police officers.
Plus, I also have trouble to read the text display. I have to pay attention to that because when heading into the radar zone, it only gives 2 beeps at the very beginning then no sounds or more alerts except for the display. So, if I wonder whether my car is out of the radar, I have to read. The situation get worse when I have sun glasses on sunny days.
Now, I do have trouble to trust whether it is working or not and I am actually thinking to return it to Amazon. At the same time, I am driving slowly so not to pass any posted speed limits.
(My purchase is still within 30 days.) Any comments are welcomed. Thank you.

Es sencillísimo de usar y 100 por 100 efectivo. Sencillamente, la relación calidad precio es tan alta, que la calidad es muy superior a su precio.
Saludos.

It’s been a long time since I played w a radar detector. I expected more from what should have been a `middle of the road’ unit. I’ve not had this out on the open road, but in the city, it’s practically useless. After turning off X-band & incorporating double filtering, the false alarms are unacceptable.
It may well be that ANY detector is going to be rendered about useless in an EMI polluted city, which most are today, I suspect. And I’m not going to spend a $1,000 or more to find out. This unit acts exactly like low/moderate priced units of the 1970s.
It looks like most cities/counties are still using K/Ka-band, so if it’s your first RD, start with something under $50 & see if it’s of any use in your situation. This unit won’t be much better. Professional highway drivers might find this OK as a starter unit, but will probably pop for the $1,000+ units in the end.

Works well so far. Purchased based upon several favorable reviews. Compared well with higher end products. Suction cups are the best I have used, very secure. Good feature selection and unobtrusive to sight line.
